I just have a quick question. I lost my virginity recently and I want to have sex again but the bleeding scared my partner and it caused some tension for a little bit. Will I bleed again if I have sex? I know that it's 100% normal but I was a little embarrassed and I want to know if there is a chanc...

So the real question that I have is being taken advantage of count as a type of assault or abuse? Hear me out before you start jumping to conclusions. My freshman year of high school was very hard. I was depressed, suicidal, self harming, recovering from anorexia, insecure, and extremely vulnerable....

the communication was really good actually. he was a compete gentleman and he put my needs before his and always gave me an option on what to do and how to do things and how far to go. i feel like the next time i am with him (hopefully today) i can actually talk to him face to face about all of this...

im trying my hardest to deal with the negative feelings. i am a very emotional person and a huge fear for me is getting too attatched to someone after having sex with them. ive done other things in the past and it really messed up my head and how i saw myself. that happened my freshman year of highs...

no it doesnt but I just feel like i'm doing something wrong by being sexual. i know that sounds wack but thats how i feel i guess.

yeah i think so. i just hope he doesnt think im weird or something.

i think it sounds like something that is definitely worth trying. thank you

i guess i just want to know if doing sexual things without being careful is another form of self harm.

no we weren't using lube I suppose that might make things a little bit easier and hopefully less painful. As to the article that Mo sent I still believe that the difficulty was due to the fact that I am a virgin and I'm tight. I just have to work towards actually vaginal sex. Maybe this pain is a go...

I have a history of self harm, depression, and anxiety and it effects my self esteem greatly. I feel down or numb and I turn to unhealthy modes of coping with those feelings. Things like cutting and sexual behaviors. I want to feel good. To feel good about myself. Self harm is something that has bee...

A little bit. I really hope that it isn't a UTI because that would be kind of embarraising trying to explain to my parents. This pain has happened before from the same thing it just hurts more this time. We were going at it for awhile and I think that is a big factor. I'm also a virgin and he knows ...

thank you for replying so quickly. I also have one more question. Me and my fwb did alot of fingering for a long period of time and now im really sore. it hurts when i pee and it looks swollen. is that normal or is there anything that i can do to make it stop hurting or does it just need time to heal

So me and my friend just tried to have sex for the first time today and it didn't work out the way that we wanted it to. I don't know why because I wanted to have sex. I trusted him. I was too tight and no matter which way we tried nothing worked. I want to try again with him but I don't know how to...
