| You can see your own problem but are not facing it - yes you are seeing her too much, yes you are letting things get humdrum, and yes, attraction will be lost and you will want to cheat on each other.
My opinion is -If you aren't doing anything else, then you need to. You want to have a fulfilling life, and be as interesting and attractive person as possible, so you need to find other things to do. Me, I havent' got enough time. I do hip-hop dancing, jujitsu, game development - all outside of work, and around social occasions. Plus having the obligation to help finish making the video game means cancelling on some social things, leaving the more important ones, and enjoying them more.
Sex works like that too - you can abstain, and then get crazy with it. Look forward to trying it in some naughty place in public, like somewhere in the dunes on a quiet beach or in the middle of the forest. Make a day of it -have a picnic, go out to dinner in the night. Then dont' see each other till the next weekend.
But as the man in the relationship, you have to be in control of that - you have to say you're too busy but set up a date when you two can get together. Having to make time for other interesting things is a much better reason to not have sex, than outright saying that "Hey we should have sex less, then it will be more fun."
And part of having things to do is having other friends to see, and if she knows she isn't the only person in your life she wont' get complacent and disrespectful. And you can't get jealous about her seeing other guy friends - that's a bit hipocritical...
