For me, the same thing that was the reason at the time, too: Over the years my partner realized she's not into men at all actually, just into women. The into-men part was more learned behavior left over from her youth (we were together for 15 years, so it's utterly normalized to be together and hence needs a lot of time to realize you just do it out of habit).
