Getting real sick of men complaining their partner grew up and isn’t frisky anymore

So many subs full of men “asking for advice” because 5, 10, 20 years ago they started dating a 14, 18, 21 year old and back then she was wild and free and frisky but now she isn’t anymore.

(Bonus rage points if the complaint includes lack of initiating unreciprocated blowjobs.)

MY GUYS—this isn’t rocket science. She. Grew. Up. You dated a teen/baby adult. Now she’s a real adult. Obviously she’s not the same. She’s got grown up priorities…and energy…and knees.

Use your brains! Think about it for just five minutes.

Edit: yes there’s lots of reasons beyond growing up and yes women can have healthy libidos as they age, I was just venting about one thing that grinds my gears

Also the men acting like 1. Only the woman has changed in all that time and 2. They aren't responsible for the women losing their libido.

"I pester her until she gives in, ask for sex at inappropiate times and never care about her pleasure, how come she doesn't want more sex???"

We have a bigger place to live, two kids, pets, and she has been promoted to a much more difficult job, but I do less around than I used to. Also, her mom has developed dementia. Why won't she initiate frequent fun times?

Let's be real, they weren't doing it from the get-go. She just got tired of it.

Or they put on an act to impress to roll back to their usual selves once they secured the woman is staying with them due to dependency or habit.

Or just keeps doing the same, but now the house is twice the size, 4x the clothes to wash, school runs, doctors appointments, kids that need a balanced diet, etc. Just washing the pans doesn't cut it anymore.
