Very short blog for now until I have time to expand it.
I will try to put this in a way that it points a finger at
no particular group of people. All my life I had heard about men having affairs
later in life. The first point to make is it takes two for this to happen. It does seem to be the conception that when a
man gets to a certain age he hits a wall (midlife crisis). This can be due to a
factor of things, bored with life, children now old enough to move away and
releasing the pressures of parenthood, lack of sexual activity etc.
To take up on the last point I have just made. Once you have
been in a marriage/relationship for a long period of time, things in the
bedroom department slow right down. This may end up with only have sex once a
week or even once a month. Even to the point where a hand in the night placed
in the wrong place causes problems.
Now it is generally agreed that most men have a slightly
higher sex drive than women and this is no excuse but I can see why some men
get so frustrated with life (this also applies to women). Some turning to
buying sports car, others motorbikes and some look to put a bit of fun back in
there life in the way of an affair, new relationship or even going beyond that.
I will not go into that at the moment.
I am not going to judge anyone here and I have recently
found out that about 5% of women have a sex drive that would out strip most
men. . I think that these women will suffer from the
same frustration, rejection and hurt as some men feel. The only thing I may be able to say
is that women may just be able to control their feelings/ lusting’s slightly
better than men. This is why it is always deemed to be a male problem.
I will add to this blog when I have more free time.
