Well-functioning people are able to accept individual differences and acknowledge the humanity of others.
The Body Keeps the Score
Bessel van der Kolk MD
The diminishment of his desire is the result of his (potentially unconscious) perception that his wife has become less valuable to him, given his personally relevant goals. He may feel confused or frustrated or embarrassed in response to this diminishment, but – to the extent that desire represents the transmuted perception of value in sexual relationships – he won’t be able to prevent it. That said, he may attempt to avoid experiencing this change in his desire in a variety of ways (e.g., drinking more, avoiding his wife, devoting more time to his work) with varying degrees of success.
