    Age, physical, and emotional health are significant factors in sexual satisfaction versus dysfunction. Men tend to have more erectile dysfunction as they get older, while women tend to enjoy improved sexual functioning with age as long as estrogen provides sexual urge. In such a situation, a woman may seek green pasture and there are plenty of young men who are ready to provide her, her need. In such a situation the woman should tell her husband "Please release me, let me go, For I don't love you anymore,To waste our lives would be a sin, Release me and let me love again" (Engelbert). Husband should take the help from a doctor to improve his sexual function. Wife also should realize that the husband is going through the phase in his life and try to submit to the vows she made during the marriage. If nothing works out, it is better to leave than killing each other.

    Even if woman does out of the dealings, only the at the receiving end !. It's tip of an ice berg. Some one would boldly declare that husband must have been a drunkard, wife beater and could not satisfy his wife🙏💃🕺
