Many men with homosexual attractions have a heightened sense of emotional sensitivity which can make them vulnerable to emotional hurt when their high expectations are not met. Since we all have different needs and perspectives on life, it is easy to see why two people in the same situation will react differently. For one person, a negative situation may be manageable, while for another it is a devastating crisis.

Im not sure thats 'entirely' accurate. I know of a man over 50 who, by his actions, you can tell he has SERIOUS issues. Thank gawd he doesnt live in our neighbourhood!

Just because there is snow on the roof...

Doesn't mean there isn't a fire in the furnace.

Speaking for no one but my self ,
I have learned that a man can live for years with out sex, if you are board get a hobby , the at least you have something to show for the effort . Married 35 years only the first ten were really fun . But my story is fairly common among men . women don't mind abandoning what they have for the illusuion of something better, and these are never satisfied. her famous words are " you are not going to change me" She seemd to have a certain mindset about sex only for having children. Once the kids were established the sex was disestablished. no one cheated ,but the comitment of marriage and the children kept us together. After the children were of age ,we went our seperate ways. Many of the women i have met sence fit the same posture, using sex to hook the guy but it diminishes shortly after the wedding. Age has nothing to do with it.
I've lived in smalll and large towns and the story is pretty much the same revolving relationships.
I am this close to buying a doll for comfort in bed , it would hardly be any different thaan I have already expirenced many years ago.
Except the initial cost,and regular care , the doll is not going to argue or turn me down 10 years down the line. How I look or perform really wouldn't matter .
The complication of relationships and all the drama and baggage, is way more than I want to deal with any more. So a sexual connection to another person to me is as danerous as sticking your finger in a light socket while standing in water.
I have lady friends, but there is an understanding we are just friends nothing more, some are single some are lesbians some are married. Many of the men i know share much of the same expirence i did but they keep putting their finger in the light socket over and over and it has never yet clicked in their mind yet. Makes me wonder whom the real abuser is ?

Never been better. Enjoying it so much more with the experience of my years and can quite honestly say that I have never had the need for the little blue pill as of yet. Have not noticed a reduction in stamina - quite the opposite - and have noticed that it is way more pleasurable. A healthy lifestyle and keeping fit with activities, plus low stress levels is the key.

Good point.

I agree entirely.

You are right. I have met many men who also would report this.

I agree with that.

Soon after they can no longer hear the wedding bell ringing, they no longer see any need to hook a husband.

The reasoning for being playful and fun goes away. Jewelry, vacations, clothes, and cook and a maid, none of that matters. Once their reasoning for having been playful leaves, it does not return.

This is very commonly heard in counseling.

Do your friends just sit on the couch all day or something? Exercise is one of the best way to improve circulation and increase testosterone levels.

Certainly, taking care of ones self, no smoking or drinking, eating healthy and exercise and adequate rest increases ones libido. But it is not a secret that men lose testosterone as they age or that their sex drive diminishes with age. Similar changes happen with women.

As for my co-workers and friends, they work all day but are active with hobbies. Some more active than others.
