I'm going to be pretty brutal but this is commonly one of things that cause tension, resentment and ultimately potential failure of a relationship. I'M NOT SAYING YOUR RELATIONSHIP IS IN JEOPARDY! But things like this can cause rifts if they are not discussed.
Talk with your partner, really sit down and let him know how you feel and where you are coming from. Don't accuse him of having a low sex drive (or whatever it is on his side), make the conversation about you and open up to let him know. As others before me already said, find other ways to be intimately connected. Few things, if any, will get resolved without discussion. Just be nice about it.
And honestly, I'm not sure how old your partner is (if you even said) but you might talk to him about getting his testosterone levels checked. Yes, that tends to be the go-to solution these days but it is completely possible that his low drive isn't him being uninterested or unwilling. It may be a completely physiological occurrence which he has no control over.
