Rich, your wife is 100% correct.  Men tend to be more visually oriented in regards to sexual stimulation than women.  Men tend to take very little time to be eager for sexuality than their female partners.  Don't feel that the feelings and actions described by your wife indicate a problem or her lack of attraction to you.  Don't feel that her feelings indicate a lack of interest in you or a yearning for another.  It's just mother nature's way. 

Rich, while a quick look at your wife may put you in the mood for immediate sexuality, it doesn't tend to work that way for women.  They value conversation, affection, kissing and foreplay.  You can study the matter further by looking for serious web sites or printed material that will give you more details and specific advice.  

I've enclosed a short article from the respected magazine "Psychology Today" in which a woman PhD gives a short summary of differences in sexuality with men as opposed to women.  Work on becoming the kind of lover and husband that your wife desires.  You will both be pleased.
