Your Wife Can't Be Open About Sex/Aging If You Won't Be
Some guys are dishonest with themselves/their wives about sex, saying things like "my drive at 50 is the same as it was at 18" and pretending they are in the best shape of their lives at 70. If you do this stuff, she can't be open and honest with you. Join and empathize like a friend versus being defensive and delusional, and your marriage will improve!
