Should I be concerned about the drop off in sex?

i am a 21yr old male and i have been in a relationship for a little over 8 months. when we first met the sexual attraction to one another was unbelievable, but lately i fear that the passion is being lost. when we first met we both were only doing full time school. I picked up a part time job 3 months into our relationship, and she has had a job since the middle of summer. due to our conflicting schedules sometimes we only see each other 2-3 times a week, and the sex has dropped to 1-2 times a week. is this something that i should be concerned about?

niceguy07 agony auntthank you for that. i have never held a relationship this long, my previous longest was only about 4 months and that was way back in high school. after that relationship in high school i really just did not wanna deal with the pressures of a relationship so i just never settled down again. but i met my current gf and she is just so different and amazing and we get along beyond well. i am just still new to this whole relationship scene and i really dont wanna mess it up. so i figured i'd ask here first before i bring her anything that just may sound like me being a sex addicted dog. its not like we never get intimate, but it has slowed down a bit and i am just curious if that is normal. thank you any more responses are more than welcome.

hlskitten agony auntHi

Probably not, considering you dont see too much of each other. You dont want everytime you see each other for it to focus just on sex, maybe thats what your girlfriend is thinking? If someone saw their partner 5 times a week they would probably have sex, say, 3 times of that?

Also it always settles down a bit after a few months, the newness goes. Thats normal. As long as you both still fancy each other.

Have you spoken about it together?
