Contamination OCD is Ruining My Sex Life

OCD is ruining my sex life. I'm so worried about contamination I feel so abnormal cause everyone else is doing it and I can't. I almost just want to do what my body wants and worry about the rest later

I have had similar issues. Everything has to be cleaned a certain way and everyone has to shower. Everything has to be just right for anything to happen. And even then the contamination anxiety is terrible. My ex-wife allowed me to do what I needed/did what I needed her to do so we could be intimate. But she knew me as some of the OCD progressed (over 7 years) and was use to it. Now I am scared I will never find someone that will do that with me. It really sucks. I don't know what to say that can help, bc I still struggle with it but I'm sorry. I just want you to know you're not alone ❤️
