Can having less sex cause him to fall out of love?

My ex and I were great for 1.5 years. Then, over the summer, we were only able to have sex a few times.

By the time we got back to college, he was distant and irritable (and I know everything was fine at the very least up til the beginning of august).

He broke up with me, said he felt tied down and needed space. Now, he says he doesn't love me anymore. He doesn't try to contact me. Could it all have started because of less sex?
 
This was not your fault. He probably found someone else. Less sex would only be an issue if the relationship was built around it.

No he may have just been the high john the conqueror type. He wants to sow some wild oats and you as a gf will keep him from that. Not worry however, you are worth more than that. If all it took for him to love you was a lay with you, he never loved you anyway. Start checking out the real men on campus and you will find that it feels wonderful to be in a relationship with someone with more than what is physical on their minds. someone who respects and want to see you happy. You deserve that and it is yours for the taking.
 
No. It could have started because of another woman or because his life is going in a different direction. Sex in and of itself is not going to make or break a relationship. There is so much more to it than your being unable to have intercourse over an 8-12 week period. True love is not dependent solely on physical gratification.
 
Guys have the rep of wanting sex every minute.
So most likely you dont know, unless you tell him.
It may be because he was overwhelming or stressed out about something.
lack of sex could effect a guy in many ways but if he says he doesnt love you anymore im guessing he just doesnt want to be with you intentionally anymore.
 
If he did love you, he would not break up with you because of less sex. He is just not worth of you and if he says that he does not love you anymore then just let him go.
 
Only if he's the kind of guy who only wants that.
Less sex shouldn't be a problem if he actually cared about you as a person.
Sorry if that's a little harsh.
 
If he just wanted you as a sex tool, then yes it won't last. Which sounds like the case here. :/
He isn't worth your time!
