I think you are mistaken about women …

one to many arguments that veered too close to the line to abusive. Not legally physical abuse but angry enough to not feel safe and have zero sexual desire. Also being a jerk about it - whining about me wanting to have the curtains drawn (during the day!) and making it clear he thought I was inadequate.

All the other excuses are things that helped diminish the drive.

She cheated. I think we men are different. It seems that women can move on if their man sticks his d**k in another woman vagina, for many of us guys once we marry you and another d**k other than ours goes into your vagina we just don't see you the same anymore.

Same. Except, he is by and large medically ok, no nerve pain etc, but perhaps busy at work/home and subsequent low libido. Strangely enough, we are very much in love even without the sex because my mortality is staring us in the face.
Also...still undergoing chemo etc...

Our sex life isn’t dead but after almost 40 years and sex maybe 4000+ times it’s just not as exciting. Now it’s about once every 10-14 days. Certain things I won’t do or rarely do so maybe I need to do them.

Resentment + Always on his phone.

Hard to be attracted to someone who can’t cook, clean, or parent because they’re on their phone nonstop.

LOL, uh huh.
