My wife of 20 months told me yesterday she was leaving me and filing for divorce because I was not attentive enough to her sexually. This is something that is a common topic here, but mine has a bit different twist. She is 33 and I am 56. That is a huge age gap. But this is something we knew, obviously, going into this. Our marriage has been overall good - except for this one, very important area. She is a pretty woman, a size 2, healthy for the most part and I have no issue with my attraction to her. When we do have sex, it is satisfying for both of us. I am in very good physical shape and keep fit and she appreciates that. We have no children together - I had a vasectomy so we are not having children. She has a 12 year old who lives with us from her first marriage. My kid is nearly 30 and lives away.
As much as I enjoy sex, my abilities have diminished with age. I have been to a specialist who says my blood levels are normal and I do take medicine for the ED issues that are common among men my age. We average about twice a week, although I know she would like more. I feel I am doing my best. We both work long hours (me most days 11 - 12 hours - her 8- 9 hours) and I am exhausted when I get home. What does the community here think about ending an otherwise good marriage based on sexual frequency?
