Fixing his sex drive.

So my bf and I have had many talks about how I'm unhappy with the amount we have sex (or lack there of) I told him it's not just the sex I'm unhappy with, it's the feelings that follow being rejected and constantly having to address the issue. I told him I feel as if he disregards my my physical needs or my want to be closer with him on that intimate level. And also being rejected bruises my ego and self esteem a bit. 
Anyway, through our conversations he's said he doesn't understand why he's in this rut. Because he says he used to have a pretty high sex drive.  We're both young (23) and I feel like our relationship is still too young to be acting like an old couple. We're trying to figure out what the issue could be. He feels that his relationship before be could've set him up for this lifestyle because they probably had sex twice the whole time they were together. But is that really a valid reason? I'm thinking it may have to to with a little self image issue. Since we started dating he's gained a little bit, not a lot though. And I tell him all the time how so very much I'm still attracted to him, but I know that doesn't do much if he thinks of himself that way. 
Sorry for the rambling, I'm just trying to figure this whole thing out before it becomes a bigger issue. Any ideas?
