Here's what I think - It's been two years. In the beginning, things were love-dovey and you wanted to please each other. Now, you're starting to realise that her sex drive far from matches yours. She's probably realized the same. Two years is a pretty good benchmark for reassessing a relationship because at that point, there are no more masks.

The fact that she decides to throw into conversation that in future you shouldn't expect as much sex, probably means that, while in the beginning, she was happy to have sex a lot (because you didn't know each other so well or as deeply), now she'd rather not all the time, or most of the time (because she associates sex with other parts of the relationship). She's probably worried about your expectations of her and is thinking that down the line you may not be happy with how she really, truly feels about sex, and the frequency of it. That, and of course there may be underlying issues there also (there always are), such as there is some other area of your relationship she's unhappy about so her mood for sex is waning, or there may be a sexual issue also (physical or psychological).

We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.


Fernando Pessoa, 1918
