MC was interesting. We had a mostly introductory session. Not much really happened. It's good my expectations were not super high, and I realize that this is just the first step on the road. Overall, I liked the therapist, she seems knowledgable, and H likes her too. We scheduled appointments into August (gotta get those Saturday appts lined up!), so H is committed to continue to go for a while at least.

Lucky, I think you may be right about us both waiting around to initiate, trying to read the other's mood and being afraid to be the one to make a move. I appreciate seeing your H's thoughts on the issue, it's VERY illuminating! It's hard to break the silence around sex that exists in our relationship, and I think I may have to lead the way by example just a bit. If it's intimidating for me, it must also be intimidating for him.
