I honestly don't count that experience as giving or losing my virginity for many reasons, and I was raised by a Christian family. Is it okay to start all over and wait until I'm ready or marriage? Could I still tell people I'm a Virgin?

No it's not the same guy, it's with this guy I wasn't really ready to have sex with, and after I still felt like a virgin and I thought it was wrong to feel like that

Well I didn't feel anything emotionally or physically, and a few seconds later he was like cumming and I was just like so confused

Is it possible not to feel anything during sex? I know that probably sounds weird, and I don't know if it was because this guy had a small penis or if maybe he just didn't get it in, but I couldn't really feel anything and it was my first time. Is that even losing my virginity?

And when I want to break up with him, I'm somewhat scared to. I've given him so much and one of them being my virginty and he's been my first to so much and I've always felt like he's the right person but I've always been told by my family that your virginty is something you can't get back

Your advice is great, but I don't always treat him well either. So it's both of us who need to work on a lot

Before I started dating the person I'm with now, I thought I was in love with this guy who never made me apart of his life in any type of way. We had one of those relationships where we said we were boyfriend and girlfriend but we didn't have a relationship. He constantly just wanted to be with his ...

I think one of the things he did that really hurt me the most is when we were arguing one night about how his friends said I was a slut and that I sent them nudes and all this stuff when in reality I didn't even know them and my boyfriend took their side basically. I was like no I have never sent th...

Well I've honestly gotten put down a lot, and he tells me that his parents don't like me and all this stuff that really hurts my feelings. I don't feel like he would ever hurt me and most of the time I am happy but when he's putting me down saying that I'm not able to say no to anyone. He acts like ...

I have been in this relationship for 8 months now

Well when I was at the beach last weekend with a friend, who is a girl, he would send me a lot of messages and kept saying that I shouldn't wear a swimsuit because all these guys are going to look at me or he freaked out when 8 year old boys wanted to ride around on the golf cart at the beach

He doesn't want me to talk to any guys. He's quite possessive

Well there is something else to this though. I have a best friend who is a guy, and he is there for me, but my boyfriend doesn't like that at all and he really doesn't like me to speak to him. He only wants me to ask for his help

He seems defensive

Well I don't know how to communicate with him because when I say "I really want you to be there for me and at least try, try to be there for me even if you don't understand. At least tell me it's okay. I just don't get how you can't be there for me but you can be there for another girl." T...

Well I would like for him to try to be there for me. It honestly hurts my feelings that he can be there for his girl best friend but he for some apparent reason can't talk to me and be there for me. I would like to know that he cares for me and my well being and shows me that he can be here for me, ...

Not so well I guess

Well when I bring up those fears about my relationship ending, he always says that he loves me and nothing like that will ever happen. When I try to talk about my family or dad he's not sure what to say to me, sometimes he just sits there, almost like he's stunned.

Well I don't have my dad in my life because he's abusive... To me it's always felt like I lost half of my family because I don't see anyone on my dads side of the family and it hurts. I miss them a lot and I try to explain to my boyfriend but he doesn't really understand

Well sadly I'm a clingy person, and I think it's more of a general fear but losing my dad, I guess has made me a clingy person. I don't really have much experience in relationships though, and my boyfriend has had so many girlfriends. I think I'm just scared that I'm not someone special to him, that...

Well I'm dating my first real boyfriend and I feel all of these amazing feelings... I'm just scared of it ending

how do you define first love? Is it the first person you fall in love with?

I've always heard that you never forget your first love, but what's so significant about that person? How do you know when someone is your first love? Is it something that's just made up or does everyone experience a heartbreak in their lifetime? Thanks, Emily

My mom gets depressed at times too, so I'm sure if I told her that she would understand, but I'm also really close to my grandmother and she told me that maybe I should have another round of therapy. Thank you for all your help!

Yeah I would totally be okay with that, but I feel like every time I tell my mom I don't feel happy anymore she just tells me I'm going through a confusing time. So how would I tell her I would like to do therapy again?
