I know sex shouldn't be the focal point of any relationship, but I still believe it to be a big part of a healthy relationship. 

I talked to the gf about this. We both understand each other's points. She knows how sex creates another level of intimacy between two people. I also understand that she wants to wait to make sure I'm not a hit it and quit it type of guy. She says we will do other things (handjob, eventually bj) to try and satisfy my sex drive. I don't think she has a countdown but just wants to make sure we are committed to each other before she engages in sex with me. I understand it is something very important to her and I respect that. 

In all honesty, I am just looking for words of encouragement or insight. I am not breaking up with her because of not getting sex, she has many other qualities that make me remain attracted to her.
