Oh sammy... I would run from this situation now. The chances of it improving are very slim. Many of the people on this board had loving, active sex lives in the beginning of their R's and stuff like kids, jobs, life, caused sex to get kicked to the back burner. You're starting out in a bad place, IF you expect/want sex to play an important part in your R.
Depending on how the scheduling thing works out, please consider moving on. My gut feeling is that this will only get worse, not better, and that it will always be a problem... sometimes more of a problem, sometimes less, but always a problem.
