It seems that we have very similar situations then. I too was sexually abused by my father and didn't remember until I started therapy. Strange that your therapist didn't pick up on what you needed to hear though and let you know that what you are feeling is COMPLETELY NORMAL!!!! You should not feel guilty about sex. It is a natural and beautiful form of human expression. I just can't believe your therapist isn't picking up on this. Hmmm.... I can give you Bubba's number, if you like...
In my situation, I frequently had sex with strangers, but refused and often hated having sex with my own boyfriend. I'd give in, feeling it's my obligation, and often times not being able to say no, but often times feeling revictimized, but that only leads to resentment. I've learned to say no, much to the dislike of my boyfrined, but we get along much better now. That "emotional attachment" thing gets me every time. Go figure.... (See, I even spout off to strangers!!! You don't mind, do you? :)
