Why would someone lose interest in sex? I have seen the Dr. and was tested to
see if testosterone levels were ok, and they were fine. I do not have a problem
getting an erection. It's just that I could go months without interest in sex. Not like when I was younger I wanted it 5-6 times a day, wife is getting unhappy. My Dr. even
sent me to a sex therapist. I told wife that I would go down on her, something
we both love but it's not the same as getting penetrated.

What else is going on in your life? What do you like to do? Hobbies?

I think it is normal to have ups and downs in one's interest in sex. Who we are is composed of many things. As some things become a bigger part of us, other things become a lesser part.

I'd be willing to bet that if I asked you to tell me about who you are, you'd have a lot of things to say about yourself that are interesting. You no longer think of yourself as primarily a sexual being like you used to. Now you think of yourself as a person who does X and likes Y and spends his free time enjoying Z.

This happens all the time to women. It's a cliche that women have kids and stop being interested in sex. Motherhood becomes their primary identity, and their sexuality goes on a back burner. And what do the experts recommend that they do to bring sex back into their lives? Make time for it. Schedule into their busy lives some time to behave in a sexual way, so that it stays a part of them.

Life changes, and changes people too.

In a few days I will be offcially approaching the big 50, that means I am nearly done with the 40's. Shit!

You know I thought life would slow down, and that work would get easier, and I would have more time to nail my beautiful wife. She thought so too.

Damnit all to hell, life is not really like that. I am at the top of my game with my business, I go to work between 6 and 7 am every week day, I go home for lunch and the occasional nooner, back to work and then home by 5:30 - 6:00 five days a week.

I do have hobbies, but they are mostly on the back burner until work slows down, which I predict will be when I retire, when ever that happens.

My wife and I spend a lot of time together, if you can say that given my work hours.

We still have sex several times per week, but it wasn't long ago that it was a couple times a day.

Has my interest in sex changed, absolutely. My solution, if my wife wants sex, she has to go for it more than she used too. What I mean by that, is that she comes onto me, like rolls me over and mouonts me, or goes down to perform a good BJ but cuts it short for her own satisfaction. I would say that our sexual activity has changed from me being the agressor 100% of the time to more of a 50 / 50 situation. I could likely go for weeks without it, but I couldn't let my woman be without for that long. I know she has needs too, and if you don't fullfil them she might find some who will.

So what you are going through is maybe a stretch on normal, but not uncommon. If you want to please your wife, then tell her that she will need to take the initiative more often, and even if you are not in the mood when she is, you have to learn to compromise. ;-)

A couple of times a day is just not practical for employed people.

It takes my husband over an hour to get to work. There's no way he could come home during the middle of the day and then go back.

I do realize that for most such a schedule is not practical.
Yes I guess I am a fortunate sole. I chose my career for the freedom that it provides first, and for the financial rewards second. While the kids were young I focused on the freedom more than the financial end.

Being self employed I can take time away from the office when ever I feel like it, and my residence is a mere 12 minutes away.

When the kids were in school I used to go home in time to share part of their lunch hour then take them back, which was only a couple blocks from our house. I often returned to share some intimacy with my wife. Quite often followed by a late evening rendevouz once the kids were fast asleep. Once they were in middle school and high school they stayed for lunch, and the wife and I had nooners nearly every school day. Auh the memories... :-)

However, since the kids have moved out, I no longer find myself coaching variouos sports. Dance and music lessons have ended thus the Chauffeur Hat has been retired. I now have more time to focus on work. And rather than living at a more relaxed pace I am making up for all of those years of nooners and double features. lol

As of right now, being at the ripe age of 25, I have a very healthy sex drive. However, if need be i can go on without sex for months. When ms kitty wakes up, then that's when i feed her. But, i don't have random lovers though.

My Inspiration used to refer to herself as a sex camel.

She was able to store up and get thru a long drought. I was never fortunate to be around with her at an oasis.

But she had a very healthy and satisfying solo life. Would have given a lot to have watched her with some of the toys she used to describe.

Still one of my biggest fantasies to assist a lover that way. Ex wife and the current/Ex girlfriend thought they are dirty evil things.

Your own body chemistry plays a part in it as well, things like diet, habits... smoking can slow a guy down as he ages, so can processed food, alcohol, soda. We should all be eating "real" food anyway, but if you really want to feel like a 20-something again, then reappraise everything you put into your body, and you'll be amazed at what comes out of it!
