How can I overcome my fear of sex?

Tagged as: Age differences, Sex, Virginity<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (2 November 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 2 November 2009)
A female Bulgaria age 18-21, *nonymous_NF writes:

I'm 18 years old and I'm still a virgin. I've been going out with my bf for almost 10 months now. The fact that he is 9 years older then me, I guess it's normal for him to want sex (he's a virgin too) and I understand that. We spoke a lot about this, I feel comfortable speaking to him and I guess I want the same. However every time we get to second base it feels like I can't relax and it feels like I wanna pull away. How do I get over the fear of having sex? How can I relax and enjoy it?

quiet-echo agony auntPin point the source of your anxiety. Are you self conscious of your body? Are you worried about impressing him?

Demystify it. Read everything you can, there are many how-to articles and websites online. I might have a few links. Let me know if you need them.

Practice some relaxation and positive exercises beforehand. Sounds trite, but it works.

Be realstic in your expectations. You might be pressuring yourself to have intercourse. Instead work up to that gradually, over a period of weeks or months (whatever you need). If you know there is no rush, you might be able to relax enough and maybe you'll be ready for intercourse sooner.

Knowing the source of your anxiety is important.
