Hi,
After 20 years increasing height is not possible as there is fusion of epiphyses of long bones with bones.
Height has nothing to do with your marital life.
Even though go for running, jogging, swimming jumping of rodes and cycling which are exercises helping in increasing height.
Ok and take care.
I find this answer helpful
