Grumpy husband - is it just old age?

Without sounding too alarmist, if this mood change is out of character, it could be a sign of depression or early stage dementia. If it's got to the stage of not wanting friends around because of his rudeness, I'd be inclined to seek some professional guidance.

My husband is 69 and seems to be getting increasingly grumpy / rude. Is this normal for the ageing male ? ! I'm 52 and try to be jolly and cheery but his grumpy mood just makes me bicker with him. Needless to say the atmosphere at home is pretty awful. I'd like to be more sociable but I don't really invite people over because of his moods.
ADVICE please. Is it time for Relate ?
