Some (many) guys see their self-worth through the eyes of their career. Admittedly, while it’s not really healthy, I do think it’s relatively common, especially among NYC alpha-males. There is a ripple effect on a guy’s relationships, social activities, motivation, emotional well-being … if his career takes a down-turn. Reassurance may help. As may you initiating physical intimacy. But it’s quite possible he’s not in the head-space to be intimate. So maybe you need to reassure him that you understand he needs space, and that you’ll be there when he gets back to normal … or when he needs you. Hopefully, it won’t be a long-term thing. Another possibility is that he feels emasculated at being taken care of and not being the “provider.” Another possibility is just general depression. But it does sound like he’s checked out of the relationship. You can help, but change must come from within. A fourth possibility, unfortunately, is that he wants out of the relationship (consciously or sub-consciously) and is passive-aggressively pushing you away b/c he’s to scared (or unaware) to speak up.
