I came across this article which I felt could be a springboard for discussion on this topic. Many believe in the old adage of happily ever after and till death do us part, and in many ways it is still viable. But this piece suggests that the intensity and passion in relationships has an expiration date, and the author puts the average at about three years, which is still four years short of the so-called "seven-year itch" mystique. When that expiration date arrives there no doubt could be some brooding and jealousy happening. If a man is suddenly less passionate that his wife, or vise versa, the neglected spouse could accuse the other of having a paramour on the side even if such is not the case. For men a case of ED could be in play here possibly. I would be more inclined to believe that the pressures of everyday living and constantly needing to chase the dollar sign is at fault here as well. That alone can grind one down to the point when the spouse may need to do something to give him or her the extra shot of energy need to start your engine. When sparks are flying you can think of a great idea.
