My husband and I have only been married for about 5 months now. We have only had sex about 3 times in those 5 months. We can go two to three months without it. We don't talk about it and neither of us ever really initiate it. The topic just doesn't come up. We both seem happy with our relationship, but the more I read about what is "normal" the more I get scared that we're not! What should I do to help me with this situation, or help us for that matter? I have heard that lack of sex can lead to divorce and that is the last thing I want! I love my husband dearly and want to make sure we are both happy and healthy. I just don't feel like our sexual desires and also activity is normal or healthy. Please help!
