To make a marriage work, you have to be selfless, and love your spouse unconditionally. Your love for your spouse can't be conditional, or selfish, otherwise it will fall apart.

Why is agape love important to christians?
Agape is Love. The kind of Love that god has for us. A love that has no ending, a forgiving love. When God sent His only Son to die on the cross so that we could be saved from the pit of hell, that was Agape.

When Christians say Jesus loves you is that some losers way of saying that some dead guy has a thing for you?
Greek has four words that we translate as "love." One of these words is agape, which means a self-giving love. That is different from eros, which is sexual desire, and is another word for "love."In your proposed explanation, I think you have in mind eros, but that is not what is meant here.A fair explanation of agape love is the idealism of a soldier who goes off to fight for his country, because of his "love" for his country, for those who live in his country, and for what he thinks his country stands for. That is agapelove.Christians believe that Jesus died on our behalf, which was a fulsome expression of his agape love for us.

Should you still be intimate with your spouse even when they say they are no longer in love with you?
It's very difficult to be intimate in any way with a spouse that no longer loves you. Both of you need to sit down and communicate and decide if you are going to work on your marriage (or if you are living together) or not by seeking marriage counseling. If your spouse refuses then you need to move on with your life. Life is to short to stay with someone you no longer love or they don't love you.
What is difference in loving someone and marrying?

How many times is phileo love used in the bible?
I assume you mean in the New Testament, as the Old was not originally written in Greek and Hebrew/Aramaic do not have clearly different words for love like phileo and agape. In any case, phileo is used only 25 times in the entire New Testament. This is a sharp contrast from agape/agapeo which is seen in noun or verb form at least 262 times. Most notably, phileo and agape are both used in the famous discussion between Jesus and Peter in John 21. The way Jesus chooses agape but Peter sticks to phileo until Jesus finally uses phileo as well, seems to indicate there is an important difference between the two words (for it greatly saddens Peter when Jesus switches to using phileo, even though that was the very word he chose to use in answer when Jesus was using agape.)
