Unfortuanately, the effect of a wife losing desire for the husband is that he loses his confidence. Men want Admiration and Desire more then anything else in the world. It's the catch-22 here. Women wants a man that is confident to desire him while man get confidence from being desired by his woman. Tough circle to break out of. But hey, I am trying to make me as happy and as confident as I can. It is very hard when my emotions are so directly tied to her DESIRE for me. I think this is what Dr. Laura means when she says that men rely upon their women for their own emotions.
