Midlife Man

Declining Sex Drives and Lost Sexual Stamina

Once fathers taught their sons the mysteries of life; now fathers look to their sons for help. The ground has been cut out from under, leaving many men feeling like animals without noses. They can't find their way back to the den, can't find their prey, and can't find their mates.

He wants to sell the house and get a little place in the mountains or a sailboat and sail to the Islands. His partner of two decades is too fat or too thin, too short or too tall. He doesn't like being home. He buys a Harley Davidson, a sports car, a camper van and goes in search of wide open spaces. He changes his hair style, starts a diet and joins the local gym. He says his clothes are too old for him. He says his woman and he have grown apart. He needs time to think about “things”. He wants something but he doesn't know what. He wants a divorce.

Time is Running Out

It's a punch right between the eyes when he realizes he is getting older. There's so much he hasn't done. Time is running out. He can't keep up this stress of being husband, father, breadwinner! He's getting older — his hair is thinning, his waist is thickening, his muscles are flabby, his face is wrinkling, he has a t-shirt with little hand prints saying “we love you, gramps” in childish scrawl. He is feeling emotions he's never felt before. And occasionally he is impotent. It's just too much!! He can't handle it! He doesn't want to be an old man!!
He is tired of his body and he is tired of the demands on his time. He has had it with increasing pressures at work. He's like a hamster, caught in his cage, running on his wheel, he has to keep running or he will lose his balance... and he loses the urge.

Declining Sexual Potency
