just finished reading your whole post. It's my experience, and my close female friend's/sister's, that when we say we want "intimacy", we mean physically, and when we say emotional connection, we mean passion or romance. The single issue I'm contemplating for you, really overlaps with several. Sexual satisfaction, romance and passion, good conversations, time spent truly 'being' together, are sort of rolled up into one for me. Even though at times I'm able to compartmentalize, it's what I want all together. And very possibly it's what your W meant.
From where I sit, I think your w really needs you to "get it," and if you did, her deepest dreams would come true. These are dreams she may have let go because she just may not think it's possible for them to happen. Perhaps she wants to save both of you from sleepwalking through the rest of your M and lives.
Just my opinion. If things do work out for you and you reconcile, or if you don't but you still work on finding your passion, this whole experience may well heighten the level of "intention" in your life. Make sense?
Lastly, I do some stand up comedy as an avocation. So, the next sentence may not be applicable to "normal" people. But my H and I laugh a LOT in bed. It's fun. And fun is also a big aphrodesiac. j-
