Dwindling Sexual attraction

Have been with partner for around 4 years we are both in our 30’s and must admit the spark between us is really starting to struggle, We are down to having sex maybe 2 or 3 times a month and even then it feels a bit like a chore

We have both been guilty of becoming over comfortable with each other and getting bogged down by day to day life and routines we don’t have children but still have busy life’s with work , house chores , family , friends etc

We have talked about the struggling sex life and a few issues came to light the main one being he doesn’t think I make enough effort to be sexy anymore ….. I will admit I am very partial to a hot water bottle ,dressing gown and fluffy socks when I am able to chill out in the evenings, he said he doesn’t find this look particularly attractive

It sounds silly but I am not the most confident of women I have a very small bust and find I do struggle to be naturally “sexy”

I’m curious if anyone else has encountered similar issues or is dwindling sexual attraction brushed under the carpet in your household ?

So he doesn't make an effort to be intimate with you in a non sexual way? My 2 exes complained about the lack of sex. I have a high sex drive when I'm with someone who is interested in me, who speaks to me, who is in a team with me. My sex drive dies when there is no or little interaction, when I feel unsupported or when I'm carrying the load.
