Why does sex slowly die off in a Marriage after 10+ years??

Economists call it the law of diminishing returns.

Diminishing Marginal Utility.

Simply because you are getting older.

Ah ok.

Sex sex sex, u cannot com and kill yourself ......This is the reason you should marry your friend, friendship don't die off....Marriage is not all about sex, u will get tired one day no matter your libido level..

New year lie...mine is 12,feels like its yesterday.

Because the frequency of marital sex is inversely proportional to the woman's certainty in her relationship and future financial stability. The more she is confident of her husband's willingness to maintain her financially, physically and emotionally as the only sugar in his tea, the less sex he gets.

Unsure women give out the most sex. Remember that.

People de tire na

White couples remain sexually active until they die, Oyibo no dey play with sex even 90 years old couples still dey enjoy themselves with the thing jare.

Children, job, stress, other priorities take over, cuddling is enough if you have gotten all your kids.

Sex

No. You got it the wrong way around.

it depend on the couple especially when either or both of then is cheating. many are over 10 years and so much into each other.

Well...I think doing things the same way all the time plus hormonal depreciation causes it. I know a guy who can't imagine getting some every other day like I think it should be, he thinks you should get it every goddaam day . I know he won't feel that way after ten years of constant getting from same source . Its just natural.

I think the question should be why do men stop having sex with their wives after ten years of marriage only to be sleep with call girls.......In this new era marry a Nigerian man at your own risk

Stress

:

You bought blackberry 10years ago, why are you not using it now?
All these things we dey rush we go definitely get tired of it.

More important things to do

Lol, Well because humans are nature of change.

We always want change or evolution.

You can not like or want the same things, feelings, object etc of 2,5 or 10 years ago.

Although you can grow with someone but your interest or mindset change over the years, only if both of you are on the same frequencies. Which is never the case in most marriages because most partners fail to communicate or power struggle come in.

In some cases external influences such as friends, colleagues, ex lovers etc affects ones sexual satisfaction over the years. Some couples go.back to the past by searchingfor nostalgic sexual satisfaction with ex- lovers, friend,colleagues or school mates, which doesnt or can never be the same.

Wait what do I know. Psshh
I am not even married. Please ignore my comment and wait for the Elders.
