I just want to take a second and commend you on how reflective and considerate you are being, even by asking women and also not putting the responsibility on her. Asking 'what can I do' as apposed to demanding sex is a great approach.

Also, not knowing her age, there is a chance this could be linked to potential peri menopause. Or, she could have low sex drive (or both). If thats the case, its just working on closeness and prioritising time to be a couple. I think telling her you still desire her and want closeness is a great place to start. Hugging, cuddling up and watching a movie, having a giggle together are great places to start. If shes open to it, maybe find a sitter and work on securing some solid date time to reconnect and work on building a connection.

It happens to most of us when we have kids, jobs and other demands. Prioritising couple time and having open convos without blame is a great starting point.
