If you and your partner haven't had sex for a long time, anxiety or awkwardness about reconnecting can prolong your sexual drought. However, avoiding what you fear just maintains the fear. It's only by feeling the fear and doing it anyway that you begin to overcome your discomfort.
Talking with your partner about your anxiety or discomfort is a good beginning. Reconnecting with some non-sexual touch is also helpful. Agree ahead of time what kind of touch is acceptable and stick to the agreement. There's no set timetable for when you need to progress to the next level. Take as much time as you need. The important thing is that you're moving in the direction of more physical closeness.
