I'm in my mid fifties and yes there has been a dramatic drop in my sex drive over the last 10 years. We still have a healthy sex life but honestly it is nowhere near a daily need for me any more. When we do get together there is no measurable drop in intensity, performance or satisfaction. My wife has been in menopause for about 5 years now, coupled with a lot of stress and some self esteem issues so her drive has dwindled to about 0. This has been a LD/HD marriage for many years but we've learned over the past couple of years to better deal with it and keep us both happier. It is not ideal but it is workable for us both.
