[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you comprehend that you will feel differently at 65, 75, 85 than you did at 20, 30 or 40?

Marriages can last 60 years or more. Do you understand that health issues can crop up along the way?

I wish I had realized better that my drive would bounce back quite a bit post menopause, but hormones are a true driver of sex and once those hormones drop, so does desire. And atrophy is a real issue for many women.

But also many men start to have a lot of issues in their 50s. Weight and medications cause ED difficulty, and knees and hips start to break down.

It's not as easy to "just do it" to appease a partner.

That's nice for you.  Sex is the most important part of a marriage.  I despise my wife for taking that away.[/quote]

New poster here. I agree that sex is not the main thing in our relationship at all. It’s a plus and that’s it. You have a problem with thinking that sex is the main thing if you despise your wife for any reason, you should leave her and get a divorce. It sounds like you’re only in the marriage for what you thought would be a permanent sex situation on demand; that’s not what marriage is—grow up.
