[quote=Anonymous]From my personal observation, I don't care how well you communicate or how much sex you have, all of the men I know have gone through a mid-life crisis, at around 48-58 yrs old.   They are disillusioned with their career, kids, & their wives. Usually a parent, friend or mentor has died or had a very serious health issue, like cancer, heart issues, etc.  They feel they did not get to follow their "passion", no matter how many toys or hobbies they have or how great their career. And since their testosterone levels drop, their body no longer looks nor functions like it once did. Young women start calling them "sir" and the over 60 women flirt with them. Tough pill to swallow, especially for the alpha ones.

If the women tried to be more perfect or catered more to him or allowed for swinging/open marriage the women were mostly very unhappy. These things did not keep the marriage together. Now some of the women felt that they had enough of his bs & wanted out of the marriage, so they took this opportunity to get out.

In all of the cases where the marriage survived, the women had the money/lifestyle talk, which brought the men back to reality. (If we get divorced, you will have 50% less, not live in this house, you will need to take care of yourself, kids will hate you for dumping me for a younger model, younger model probably wants kids, so I guess you are up for infants again, younger model will be with you until the money runs out & I'm not taking you back then, you are a grown up, do what you want, but be clear, I'm not going to be sitting around waiting for you, etc.)
