What age for your Sex Life to be over?

[IsThisItForMe]

What age would you think was reasonable, for your sex life to be almost over?

Mine and DH's has been dwindling, and tbh, I feel like the only reason it's limping along, is because I bring the subject up.

I'd like sex at least twice a week. We've actually had sex 4 times this year. It's driving me mad. I'm not proud of it, but I was really horrible to him last night. We haven't had sex in 4 weeks, and I am so frustrated I could punch the wall.

Not sure if I'm being unrealistic though, as I'm no spring chicken.

I am 48. He is 45. Would anyone find this a reasonable age for one's sex life to be over?

Feeling very guilty today, about my outburst. In my defense, he has promised repeatedly to make an appointment with the GP about testosterone injections, but to date has not done this. Meanwhile my sex drive is through the roof. We do still have great kisses, which he can walk away from, whereas I find this frustrating.

Am I asking for too much, at 48?

Thanks.

@nhnhnhnh but I want to have sex with my husband! I don't just want sex with anybody. Sex is a vulnerable experience and that's sometime I want to share with someone I love.

Of course. And this is how you feel about sex.
But not everybody is like that.

For me, for example - sex isn’t a vulnerable experience. It’s fun, and exciting, and physical - and I don’t need to be in love to enjoy it.
And I like trying new things and pushing boundaries.

And - turns out - my H - while ok H in all other aspects - in this we don’t match. So - why end a marriage for this?
