Not to take away from his frustration and the constant feeling of rejection, but my brother in Cthulhu, learn to read the room. After being married for however long they've been married, he should be able to pick up on cues when she might or might not be receptive. A couple of things that I picked up from this limited data set are that she's not receptive if she's not freshly showered and after she's eaten "too much". If you know that either of those conditions are true, don't even try. It almost feels like he's trying during those times JUST to get rejected so he could throw it in her face that she's constantly rejecting him. Physical intimacy IS important, but it almost doesn't feel like that's what he's after.
