Okay, so, here we go. I’m going to talk about my “first time.” Yeah, you heard that right. It was a big deal for me, a whole mix of feelings—nervous, excited, you name it. I had heard all sorts of things, read stuff online, and chatted with friends, but nothing really prepares you for the real thing.

The first thing I did was make sure I was ready. At least, I think I am ready. I mean, it’s not just about the physical part, but also being emotionally okay with it. I chose someone I trusted, someone I felt comfortable with. That was super important. We talked about it, not in a super serious, formal way, but just making sure we were both on the same page.
Next up, protection. I made sure we had some ultra-thin condoms. I heard they are better, you know, for feeling more. They fit good, and I felt safe. So we have taken care of that part.
- Choosing the right person: Someone I trusted and felt comfortable with.
- Talking it out: Making sure we were both okay with it.
- Getting protection: Got those ultra-thin condoms for safety.
When the time came, it was… well, it was something. I was nervous as hell. My heart was racing. I remember thinking, “Is this really happening?” We took it slow, which was good. There was a bit of fumbling around, trying to figure things out. It wasn’t like in the movies, all smooth and perfect. It was more awkward, a bit clumsy, but also kind of sweet in a way.
I won’t lie, there was some pain, not too much, but definitely some discomfort. I had read that might happen, so I wasn’t totally surprised. But in the moment, it’s a bit of a shock. You’re like, “Oh, so this is what they meant.”
After it was over, I felt a weird mix of emotions. Relief, a bit of happiness, but also a little bit of “that’s it?” It wasn’t this big, life-changing moment like some people make it out to be. It was more like a step, something I had done, and now it was in the past.

Reflecting on It
Looking back, I’m glad I did it the way I did. Choosing the right person, being safe, and just being honest with myself and my partner about how I was feeling. It wasn’t perfect, but it was real. And that’s what mattered.
So, that’s my story. It’s not super exciting or anything, but it’s mine. And if you’re thinking about your first time, just remember to be safe, be sure, and be you. It’s your experience, and it’s okay for it to be whatever it turns out to be.
