From out here in left field, I wonder...
if you aren't hugely needy and the intensity of your fear has died down, what then will shield you from working on some of your more painful issues? I'm being really presumptuous in saying you have other issues, but it seems to me that in the past you've talked about going to a sex therapist and you've talked about some abandonment fears. Maybe now is the time to address some of the issues you have in your box. I suspect that a few good sessions focused on you will help you reconnect. At least I hope so.
And I know you've said you've cut back on sessions or taken breaks before. Perhaps this is one of those times.
Whatever else happens, I do hope you can continue to talk about this with him. It feels important, like a shift is occuring. I wish it felt better for you, and not like a loss. It does feel so empty and lonely when the disconnect occurs.
