[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every person is so different. But turning to this board, you are most likely to get negative stories, because people on this forum generally have a gripes. Are you worried about your DH becoming less functional, or are you worried about yourself losing your drive? On average it seems like women’s drive decreases during menopause but it’s complex and I know several women who are the opposite of that and who have really great sex lives in their 50s. I wouldn’t worry about how other people are doing, if you have a good solid sex life now, then just keep it up.

From hearing other women’s stories, I think the main driver of women’s decreased sex drive is their decreased interest in their husbands and their insecurity about their bodies. Versus a purely physiological age related thing.[/quote]

Thanks for this, very reasonable respond. I am not sure if I have any specific worries, just wondering if I should. I guess I feel like I've lucked out so far and hope we'll continue to be a good match for one another.[/quote]

No one on this board can give you the reassurance you are seeking.  Even if every response said their relationship was great, that still would not imply that yours will be, too.  Instead of seeking outside validation, invest in yourself and your relationship to maximize your chance of success.  [/quote]
