How do you manage that with your significant other when the imbalance is over a longer term and may be down to factors such as stages of life or long-term health issues?

Shame there isn't a "like" function but I agree that it has to be talked about with empathy and consideration.
Personally, if it was my libido that was down then I have no problem with my partner getting what she needs with others as long as the love for us remained.
Sex is important to a relationship but it's also important to the individual and I wouldn't want to be the reason someone missed out on something just because I didn't fancy it. |

Talk and listen. Really listen to the other. There's not a one size fit all way of approaching it bar communication.
I've always had a significantly higher libido than any longterm partner I've had. If it needs to be discussed, it is. |

I find there's asynchronous periods where it's something between us or it's an alternative factor, as you describe.
I find the conversation is usually enough for me, having that clarity.
I don't tend to have powerful sexual drives without the inspiration of a partner, which comes with it's complexities. However, in this regard it's perhaps something of a blessing. |

Sex isn't just penetration.. if she's not doing other things to fulfill his penetration requirements then he's not doing enough to fulfill her libido requirements.. it's a choice and both have chosen not to want to resolve it together |
