Gwendolin...you and I are in the same boat and I am new here for the same reason. I am also 27 and have been dating for 5 years now. We do not live together although only 2 miles apart. I am having the same worries of marriage before dealing with this issue. How can two people be so compatible in all areas but the bedroom? This too seems to me a difficult situation and I hope to work it out before a breakup. I have ordered to SSM book and hope you have too. Perhaps it will give us some insight in how to talk with them effectively and appropriately. He is aware that I am concerned with this subject but it seems to only make him more anxious about having sex.

I will keep a look out for your postings to check up on you. We seem to have a lot in common here....good luck
