Sex is an important part of a relationship for many people. Would you end it if a new partner couldn't perform?

That depends on the person. My second marriage is totally platonic. We discovered after we were married that he had become impotent. He was so afraid that I would not want to stay with him. We had become such best friends that it just didn't matter. We've been together five years and counting, and no I have not entertained the thought of cheating even though he gave me permission to meet my needs where I could. Sex became less important than maintaining a great friendship.

I'd take that! Even without the permission. I prefer what a person with such a problem is able to provide anyway , yet (before somebody starts having funny suggestions ) still like the person to be male. Having the option of meeting your needs occasionally (provided you have any) makes it absolutely wonderful!
Couldn't or wouldn't? If there's lost interest and desire, leave. If the desire is there and it's physically impossible, get some help to save the marriage. There's physical intimacy and emotional intimacy. If both are lacking...again, move on.

If you are a highly sexual person, RUN don't walk. Otherwise, it will be nothing but frustration for you. And would/could eventually be the cause of anger and resentment issues in the long run.
Why start a marathon with a person who can't even walk?

Can you at least masturbate in front of him? He might be impotent, but there's other things to be done.

Sex is easy to come across. Friends are not...
Good point.
