 Dear Michelle Valentine,My boyfriend of two years and I are supposed to be moving in together in February; however, instead of being excited about it… I am becoming increasingly nervous over the situation. I wish I could say that I was the one getting cold feet but, unfortunately, this is not the case. The whole “moving in together” thing was his idea and I have been nothing but optimistic about our future residence…. that is… until now. Whenever I bring up the move to him (which is not very often as I don’t intend to nag him) he seems to change the subject or say, “Whatever is meant to happen will happen,” or, “Whatever I choose…I hope I make the right decision.” I don’t know what he means when he says such things but every time I ask him to clarify he changes the subject. The big “move” is a month away and I am at a loss as to what I should be doing. I love him very much and I have planned my whole life around this move with him. What do you think is going on with him? What do you suggest I do? Please help! Nicole Winter Park, Florida Well readers, what would YOUR advice be? What would YOU do? Have you ever lived with someone before marriage? How did it work out? Do you know of someone that had been in this similar situation?

 Had to read the recent article in Everyday Health about "Sexless Marriages and Relationships" and if they're normal. The article states that "as many as 40 million Americans in romantic relationships scant on sex — and some of them are perfectly happy with it."
This reminds me of the character in the TV show, Frasier, where Niles seems to be unattracted to his wife. Their relationship is based more as friends than lovers. At one point, you are led to believe Niles married Maris for her money (yet in one episode it is revealed he truly loves her)... and yet, he is completely attracted to another woman (and has no problem with his displays of attraction towards her). Mostly, the viewers are led to believe they have a sexless marriage. Is Niles truly happy? It seems he is content, but not "over the top" happy in his marriage.
In my intense, full-day coaching sessions for couples, I find that men contact me for Couples Coaching due to lack of sex in the relationship, whereas the women contact me for Couples Coaching due to lack of communication in the relationship. I help both individuals learn to communicate - which in turn creates a happier, sexier marriage!
Realistically, a sexless marriage or relationship can only be normal if they both think it is, and they are both happy about it.
