    I never said she won't have sex with me. She lost interest and it is a common thing for women after their child bearing years. Common, but necessarily the rule. a lot of it is hormonal. My wife even laments her lack of interest and has tried to fix that thru hormonal supplementation.

    I'm sure I have plenty of room for improvement. That's a general given among men who have been married for a long time.

      You're being kind of a jackass. There's a difference between whining and being candid.

        So I have upped my carbs. I have yet to find out if this ups my sex drive. Again, the more I ponder this subject, I'm thinking that the self control I am gaining by guarding closely what goes into my mouth, has helped me to have a sense of self control in other areas as well. I also think that being bored is linked to the sex drive. I think guys get into trouble with porn, for example, when they have too much free time on their hands. If they are out of control with food and drink and feel lousy as a result...and add to that a marriage that has it's difficulties, then the enemy has pretty easy pickings with a guy and his computer and no one around.

        It's like "I'm already a loser, so why don't I take a peek at the ladies." Getting healthy physically (and spiritually is the given here and I don't want to preach to the choir) can take a guy out of that realm of laziness, sloth, feeling worthless, tired...all these things lend themselves to or can lend themselves to an unhealthy sex drive. Just an opinion, not a fact. Hope it helps some guy out there who knows he has a problem.

          The thing with porn is that it can also give the guy the feeling of masculinity without the effort of being masculine.

                Simple. When a man gets aroused, he can feel like a man. He can have a woman giving him everything he wants in the privacy of his own home without actually having to go out and encounter an actual woman and actually work to please her.

                Pornography promises all of the rewards with none of the effort.

                    Well, I have been adding the carbs back in. I can really feel the difference when I exercise. It's like I went from cheap gas to rocket fuel. Not sure about the sex drive yet. My wife is usually distraught about something. It used to be the kids when they were little. Now it's the kids when they're adults. She is a hand wringer and I think she would like me to wring my hands with her, but that's hard for guys to do.

                    But it doesn't do much for the old sex drive when the wife is down and out. I try to cheer her up. Somehow I know looking for sex won't cheer her up...so I have learned to not look for it.
