It does sound like HE has lost interest in the relationship. It is always that feeling that you or both of you could of done more to get back what you had when the relationship was in its prime.
I think you have done pretty much everything you could of done considering. You have told him how you felt and he has decided not to respond to feelings. Its a shame really.
The decline in sex is always a tell tell sign; and the excuse he gave just proves he is unable to express himself like you seem to with him.
I do think it is too late now. If he really wanted things to work he would of said something before he went away, but he has'nt.
Time to move on and look forward i think. You have done all you could so dont feel like you have'nt.
