My sex drive has fallen off a cliff

My wife and I have been happily married for 10 years, but recently it feels as though my sex drive has fallen off a cliff. I am only 45. Meanwhile, my wife still wants to have sex three times a week. I feel under pressure and I am worried she will have an affair. How are we going to work this out? I can’t see a way forward for us.
