Basically, men become doormats.
Women do not respect doormats. Women may say they want a man who yields to them at every turn, but they will end up losing attraction.
Stay in shape. Be strong mentally and physically. Remain a man that a woman would be attracted to. If you become a soft weak fat slob, why would your wife remain attracted?
In conclusion women are most attracted to men who other women are attracted to. If you aren't getting indicators of interest/attraction from other women when you are out, chances are your wife is no longer attracted either.
Yes, by all means, get back on the train of materialism. Keep wearing your arse out for women who will literally never be satisfied.

It's just reality
Women and men love differently.
Men love unconditionally.
Women are incapable of loving a man like a man loves a woman. A woman's love is conditional. She falls in love with a man because of who he is, not what he is.
Money, looks, status and game are the 4 pillars of female attraction. Her love is conditional based on these 4 things. If you become fat and weak(therefore killing off the looks and game part of the equation) you better hope your money and status is enough to make up for it, or she will lose attraction.
For male attraction, looks is the only pillar. That's it. As long as she is hot, that's all a man needs. Which is why I laugh when women think that their career, for example, matters when it comes to getting a man to be interested in them.

It's the biggest pillar, for sure, but I require some femininity. I don't want an OT9 that tries to act like a man.

They don't respect men they believe they are superior to (smarter, physically stronger, emotionally stronger, etc.). Men who are superior in those traits signify a greater ability to provide but they are also more fit as mates. Women who date down are women who have severe insecurities, more than your average woman.
This view you posted is a pure materialistic perspective.
I read some interviews with relatively young, attractive women who were financially successful (doctors, lawyers, etc.). They were all single and explained that the more education they acquired and more successful they became, the more impossible it became to find a man worthy of dating.
There's a reason women don't want men who are shorter, dumber and less successful. They don't respect them.

This is a lot of opinion and nonsense.

I remind my wife of this all the time. I'm sure her love for me grows every time I do.

Feminism has ruined women. This is why so many of them hit their 30s and are miserable, thinking Sex in the City is a true story and how the real world works. That they can remain uncommitted in their 20s, party and sleep around, then when they hit their 30s and are ready to settle down they will have a conga line of rich Alpha Chads ready to accept them with open arms.
Instead, their only options are beta slubs, because the high value alpha men realize these 30+ year olds are past their prime and instead have no problem finding women in their 20s instead or are already married. So these women are forced to marry these betas they dont respect because its either that or never have kids. This leads to dead bedrooms and once a month duty starfish sex.

You've only put material traits on the table to even consider.

How do you even measure "emotionally stronger"? And how many men do you really believe are emotionally weaker than average women? Doesnt your evolutionary perspective show you women are emotional creatures naturally?

Because these women view the world through the lens of materialism. Our culture and society preach materialism on an unprecedented scale. Is it really a shock to find out people even after all their needs are more than adequately met, they still seek more resources? It's a never ending cycle. It just proves my point that seeing relationships through materialistic means will always and forever leave you looking for more. It's a set up to be dissatisfaction 100/100 times.

Why dont they respect them?
And of course "less successful" is just another word for "not rich".
These women you speak of are also the most likely to leave this world childless and without a mate. Yet here you are using their perspective as the standard by which we should view how women view men. Are these women happy? How do you measure happiness? Is there any study that directly correlates happiness to money and education? As far as I know there are some studies, but the amount of money and education isn't what youd think.
Why do people who have $10 million feel the need to make $20 million?

Does not compute!
Middle age starts around 33 to 35
If you are in your 60's you are retiring, joining the AARP, and getting senior discount a area dinner joints.

Look at who we are talking about here though, this is the boomers. Screw em, they are selfish bastards. This is what they do, they screw over their families and anyone else they can in the process.

Easy answer: They have always been repressed males.

Anytime a woman talks about re-inventing herself I roll my eyes so far back I can see my brain.

While I agree to a point(I'm never getting married), these people might have been married for 30+ years.
That's a VERY long time making it work. Hell, that's a win in my book. I truly can't even fathom being with someone for that long. That's my hell on earth.
There is a difference between being silently bored and unhappy for 30 years and suddenly filing for divorce and actually talking to your SO and going to counseling to try and make it work.
Based on the story, it seems like the husband was caught completely off guard. Maybe he enjoyed silently watching TV shows and never knew that it was driving her crazy.
Basically if you were married for 30 years, you should at least give your SO a chance to salvage the relationship before you just jet off to greener pastures.
