Why is she so cold with you?
Maybe she's unfaithful?

That's disgusting! Nothing in this thread even hints at that.  Many couples only get to eat one meal together.  My parents were married 60 years and 47 of those years when my father worked they only saw each other on weekends and from 6PM to 4:30 AM during the week.
As long as my husband worked we only ate one meal together during the week.

When you have children a family rosary is admirable and advisable but 2 people, even a couple, are not necessarily on the same spiritual level.  Over the years your spirituality should blend together but the OP doesn't say how long they've been married.
Some people have longer periods of meditation when they pray.
I'd advise opening up a calm conversation about this.  Maybe start with praying the rosary together one day a week and let the graces take it from there.

When you have a intimate time, cozy up to maybe a decade of the rosary, first.

My husband's grandfather used to give these long sermon prayers before dinner. One time he prayed so long that a guest at the table yelled out, "oh come on Bob, let's eat." Do you  take half an hour or longer to pray the rosary?
