Sex File: Am I letting my wife down in bed?

She says she feels we're not connected. She seems to think I'm rejecting her

My wife and I are in our early 50s. We have two kids and a good sex life (I think), but I would be happy having sex once every week or two, whereas she would like to have it at least twice a week. Otherwise, she says she feels we're not connected. She seems to think I'm rejecting her. I don't see it that way, but am I letting her down?

The average age at which women reach menopause is 51, so if you believe everything you read in the papers your wife should be groping her way through brain fog, with no spark, no energy and absolutely no interest in sex. Instead, she would like sex twice a week and is making you feel like an old man. What's going on?
