I would say "asking for a friend" but no one believes it. He feels for a while he's just married. Doesn't see her much and they don't hang out. Work does get in the way.
I would put a helluva lot effort into trying to turn it around. Ask to sit down with her see if she’s wanting to try the same. Join a fun class you can share time together. You might just need a reminder of the spark you had.

I honestly can't imagine how you could fix that if you live in a modern 50/50 type feminist dream of a marriage where both people are equally responsible for bringing home the bacon. But it's very easy in the traditional setup because there's clear roles and clear priorities for each spouse. As in... she can have a job but it can never be to the extreme where she has no time for supporting her man at home. OR he needs to start hiring maids & personal chefs & stuff like that.
A lot of making a relationship work is having clear boundaries and sometimes you have to remind somebody of those boundaries but... they do exist. And they are make or break type things. 'If this isn't going to happen then why be married?'
Hope that's not too vague.
