I packed all my belongings in a U-Haul last night and am ready to get on the road. After living in D. Finally unpacked all my stuff with the help of my new roommate — a guy I went to college with — and one of my closest friends from college, who happens to live five blocks from my new place.

We had a passionate sex life when we first met, but since moving in together, things have changed a lot, leaving me feeling rejected. My boyfriend and I have been together for five years. I am a year-old woman and he is 10 years older than me. We started our relationship long distance, but had a passionate sex life. However, since we moved in together, we only have sex once a month, sometimes not even that. I have never reached orgasm with him. He does not like to kiss passionately and tends not to look at me during sex. There is never any foreplay. I have told him bluntly how I feel , but he says that talking is just making the problem worse. I love him very much and our relationship is generally good, but I feel frustrated and rejected.

They have sex about three times a week, which might strike many as enviable, considering that John and Jane—who are in their 40s—have been together for nearly two decades. Based on numbers alone, one might wonder why they need couples counseling at all. But only one of them is happy with the state of play. Or frequency. Or different. Jane has bought lingerie and booked hotel stays. She has suggested more radical-seeming potential fixes, too, like opening up the marriage.
