Struggling to build intimacy in our relationship. We’ll have sex maybe 1-2 in a week then nothing for a month. No foreplay, nothing. We’ve discussed it a lot but it just doesn’t change. We love each other very much, but intimacy is all but nonexistent. Ideas?

Happens to most couples. If you’re the guy , it’s because you’re not good enuf in bed and/or knowing when/when not to initiate. If you’re the girl, it’s because the challenge/mystique has gone. Logically Taking about it isn’t gonna help

Scheduling sex works for some couples.

You put consistent effort on your side so that you won't have to complain for lack of foreplay and whatnot. If they refuse to pull their own weight even then and you need more then then there is likely no other choice but to leave. You might just be sexually incompatible.
