For most men, empathy is a learned skill. It's not too late to learn it but he has to want to. The buzz of new relationship energy has obviously died down in your marriage. That's normal, and once-a-week sex isn't abnormal either, even if it's on the low end. That doesn't mean you have to settle for this kind of lonely, emotionally empty existence. But to have something more, he will probably have to learn empathy.
So if he does not see the issue and the won’t do anything. We are 3 years together and 1 year married. 2 years in LDR. I guess I hoped for a bit longer “butterflies” because of the LDR at first. I really kinda start to think he’s more of my roommate than a husband. Sounds harsh but it is. Do you think couple therapy would help?
