Sage said it best. Even if it's not about sexual issues (though ESPECIALLY when it's about sexual issues), I've found that anything less than 100% effort from both parties, on a *daily basis,* causes the relationship to suffer to some degree. Having several days in a row of less than 100% communication can lead to a lot of heartache and loss of intimacy, which takes even more work to restore.
Intimacy, both emotionally and sexually, demands serious work and commitment, far more than it takes passion or lust to keep it going. Nurturing intimacy really is a full-time job, and if both partners do not view the task in that manner, then something has gone awry (or will, soon).
Get thee to a couples' counselor!
