Long-term marriages often come with various challenges and trials, especially those that last for more than a decade or even twenty. However, if the couple's life is harmonious, then their life is usually happier.
In marriage, intimacy between husband and wife is important, no matter how long the marriage is. For long-term marriages, marital life may change over time, but not necessarily disappear. As for when a woman no longer needs to live as a couple, this is usually different based on individual differences rather than being limited by age. Everyone's needs and preferences are different, so there is no specific age definition. Couples need to have an open conversation with each other to meet each other's needs and expectations.
For the two of us, as long as we can be there for each other, this is already the greatest happiness and the greatest satisfaction.
Some women may feel no longer required to live as a couple after reaching the age of 60. This is because as we age, the body undergoes some changes and stamina and demands weaken. Couples usually get to know each other very well after decades together, and after the age of 60, the desire for conjugal life may be greatly reduced or even disappear altogether. At this age, true joy and happiness may come from being able to walk hand in hand with your partner in the sunset and enjoy time spent with each other.
In my opinion, whether a woman needs conjugal life or not is less about age and more about her life situation.
There is no clear age limit for whether a woman needs to live as a couple. It usually depends on her marital status and life situation. If her marriage is unhappy and her husband lacks responsibility and care, the intimacy between the two may gradually weaken until it disappears. On the contrary, if a man loves her and cares about all aspects of her, the marital life between the two may always be harmonious, and there may still be needs even after old age. Therefore, the need for conjugal life is more related to the individual's marital and living situation.
