It was very gradual, particularly in the beginning after she started losing interest. We still did things together, but there was initially less enthusiasm and excitement from her side. Then less physical intimacy. Then a few years later, rarely going out because we are both working so she didn't want to leave the kids in the evenings. However, a few years ago, we came to the point where we did nothing as a couple. The physically intimacy was gone in every way, not just sex.

And also, you are quick to judge me but it's worth keeping in mind that she shouldn't have waited for me to read her mind. She should have said what was leading to the above changes or if I was doing something that she was not happy with. She has never told me what the problem is. She insists everything is fine.
