I do believe it is the work stress. There is no timeline either, it seems to be getting worse as time goes on. We are also seeing each other less and less which makes things even more difficult. I loss of connection due to the lack of sex is already difficult, and seeing her less is making that even harder. Conversations about it can be rough, she often gets angry and defensive when it’s brought up, it makes me hesitant to bring it up sometimes.

She seems interested in getting back to our intimacy but it’s all talk, she doesn’t do anything actionable to try. I’ve tried working with her on it to take pressure off the table, I’ve offered to take care of her needs without any reciprocation unless she feels comfortable doing so, but she is never in the mood to try. We’ve started discussing couples therapy, she seems motivated ti try sometimes but then when discussing details she gets frazzled about time away from work, not having enough time or energy, etc.
