My boyfriend loves me but doesn't want sex :(

[Jork]

So my boyfriend and I have been together for over 3 years and the relationship hasn't been easy (long distance for the first 2 years, death in the family, my employment problems)....but we always had sex at least once a week, one summer it was everyday and I loved it:biggrin:. Now it's like once every 1 1/2 weeks or more, and when we do have sex, it's not as spur-of-the-moment anymore...everything is all planned out:

-ok, let's have sex after dinner
-put the sheet out to protect the covers
-all the same positions

I'm not complaining that the sex is terrible or anything, but it isn't as spontaneous, or impromtu anymore, which lacks passion. Without passion, why have sex at all, it will seem like a chore, and when I come on to him, I feel like I'm pressuring or even forcing him to do something he doesn't want. I want him to want me physically like he did before...what changed? :confused:

Has he fallen out of love with me?...am I no longer his type?...but I know he loves me, he is a very honest, well meaning person. He hasn't found someone else, but he masturbates more often... his excuse is that he doesn't need the sensation of intercourse and that body contact and kissing might be enough....I don't really understand it. Please help :frown:
