writes: My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost four months. Things are going fantastic between us except the sexual aspect of the relationship. Basically, he has a high sex drive and I don't. Occasionally, I can feel pressured into doing it with him, even though he is a Christian and has a strong belief against sex before marriage. We have discussed this issue on more than one occasion because he is considering marrying me, and says that we will have sex regularly and lots of it. He knows that I am worried about it because my drive isn't high, but he says this is normal until I am in my 30s, when it will be at its highest, so is still up for marriage, which I want too. So, what do I do for the time being - do I let him pleasure me when we both want it, or stop it (and the relationship) entirely? Am I abnormal to have a low sex drive at my age and why? I don't want it to hinder our relationship as I love him. Please help, thank youuuu!

You don't have to stop the relationship because of differing sex drives. Just find the times when you are both in the mood to be intimate. It shouldn't be forced or pressured so only do it when both of you are comfortable. Your sex drive is normal as there's no certain level of sex drive to have at any age, so don't worry. If he really loves you, he will learn to appreciate it and won't let this become a problem in the relationship. Hope I helped.

(explain foreplay to him, or what ever it is that you'd want) it's even better that you can talk about this stuff now rather than after you start being intimate, because no feelings can get hurt.. that's a win-win-win! hope this helps..
