Married but secretly asexual

I love my dh very much, our lives and our 3 children and that we get on so well, the only problem is I've never enjoyed sex.
I see it as a chore and hope it doesn't last too long, I have never told dh how I feel but I've always felt as though I'm missing something even with any ex and never found anyone sexually appealing or wanted to have sex with anyone.

I know it's something you do in a marriage and so I do for dh and because I value my marriage but it is just something I want to get over and done with.
I just don't get fancying people, I don't feel attracted to anyone so I'd never understand cheating.
I know he's happy and I'm happy in every other aspect of my marriage so to me it's just something I do to make it work.
I'd hate to be all alone and single forever just because I don't have the need for sex and I am a family woman and love being a wife and mother.

Or, she is in fact asexual, in which case the question is - where does she go from there?
