virginity story 43

  what does "losing your virginity" mean to you? - define the term, and then tell us about what the experience signified for you...

  The most basic definition of "losing your virginity" seems to be having sexual intercourse involving penetration. I think there are two types of virginity, though: mental and physical. I believe there is a difference between "having sex" and "making love." Personally, I have had sex, but not yet made love.

 
  what were your expectations of what the experience would be like prior to losing your virginity?

  how old were you, and was this the age when expected or intended to lose your virginity?

  I was 18. It wasn't really the age that I didn't expect or intend so much as the situation. When I was very young I decided that it would happen with the right person when I was in love, regardless of what age I might be. However, I was not in love when I lost my virginity. I don't regret it though. I was safe and comfortable with someone I cared about who cared about me.

 
  what did it feel like? was there blood? did your partner know it was your first time and did you talk about it before?

  It hurt more than I ever expected. I always thought that the stories of pain were an old wive's tale, but apparently not. I hurt in places that I hadn't known existed before. It was really strange. Eventually we had to stop. We continued having sex after that first time and with each time there was less pain and more pleasure until it was all pleasure and I was able to completely enjoy myself and come. I bled for about two or three days after the first time. My partner didn't know it was my first time until right before it happened. I kind of sprang it on him, but he was a lot more experienced than me and I knew he wouldn't have wanted to do it if I told him it would be my first time too far in advance. He was really surprised I was a virgin since I'm generally a pretty sensual girl. He was very careful and gentle and would ask if I wanted to stop if I cried out at all. He made it a good experience for me and I'm thankful for that.

 
  what did your mother, family, friends tell you about losing your virginity...

  My family just gave me a lot of lectures about pregnancy and disease. When my mom first suspected I was sexually active she used to cut out articles on STDs from magazines and newspapers and leave them on my pillow at night. Thanks, mom. ::Sigh::

 
  what would/did you tell your daughter about losing her virginity...

Be careful, wait until you're ready, and no matter what always use two types of protection (ie: birth control pills and condoms). Also, you can talk to me about it. I promise I won't freak out on you.

 
  this conversation makes me think...

haha, that I'd like to have sex right now...
