This happens with men when they trade up and get a trophy wife.

I think he is acting beta because he is not sure why you are so dissatisfied.  He is trying to be sensitive.

My DH and I accept each other as we are (25 years of marriage) and that could be because we cannot trade up or down anymore. We do not have the opportunity,  inclination, stamina or financial flexibility.

Hypergamy.  It is something we all have to be aware of and deal with.

It is entirely possible that this is the case.  OP's husband has to be aware of that and begin changing his behaviors or things will continue to crumble.  Biology is what it is.

Problem with her husband's approach is that by being "Sensitive" he continues to diminish himself in her eyes.

But he has been taught that this is way to a woman's heart, by checking in with her and "valuing" her opinion and to not be pushy.

He is learning, however, that this kills desire very quickly.[/quote]
