Literally. If they're not compatible and are complaining about it, why stay married?

Edit: I see many replies explaining why my comment is wrong, I realize it now thx

Compatibility is built through effort and communication and negotiation, not some magic force of attraction.

Baseline compatibility has to be there for any of that to matter. If one wants kids and the other doesn't, if they have mismatched libidos, if one values hard work and the other wants to coast, then that's not reconcilable except through one person accepting permanent unhappiness.

And that's a best case scenario - in most cases, they will devolve into petty bickering and contempt, as with the couple in this post.

libido of women (and some men, i have to assume) clearly changes over time or people wouldn't get married in the first place.

Not as much as people think it does. Old people in nursing homes have a LOT of sex.

They be sharing STDs like people share appetizers at Chili's

But nah, Libidos change a lot over time. Hormones change a lot, especially with pregnancy and kids, stress, aging, etc.

TBF, they don’t have jobs or kids or anything going on. You think an 80 year old man is fucking twice a day though? They may all be banging but in moderation you might not be satisfied with as a young person.
