Unhappy Why my RPM goes high but my car goes slower and slower week by week?...

I'm having a hard time with my 2008 Tl-S!! Actually im not using it but bcos I wanted to keep it only for summer (I have a winter car) and im putting it back on the road in may... Nway when I was driving it before winter I noticied there was a lack of power, my RPM was going higher and my engine was forcing to much... it was getting worse week by week... I checked the fluids (oil, prestone etc...) everything was fine... so here's my question what u guys think is the problem??? Oh btw its a manual transmission...
