Do you understand that your fear caused you to manipulate her? She is responding that that behavior, you smothering her, manipulating, controlling - the fear shows thru. A woman doesn't want to see her man afraid. That's why women consistently are attracted to confident men.
Two pronged approach - work on your fear (I call it "snakes on a brain.") IMO the opposite of fear is love. You can't give away something you don't have, so you must learn to love yourself first. - lovingly detach: handle the seperation (yes you will cycle), improve yourself- physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Get your mojo/groove/swagger back.
Learn from the WAWs here. Learn about LLs, intimacy, communication, detaching, how to make yourself happy and what will make you irresistable to your wife.
The choice is all yours in how you handle it.
Cheers
