person12345 agony auntDon't worry about the length of time in between. I was the same way, then someone special came along who I had sexual chemistry with and it was like there was never a gap. Just make sure you're super turned on and you won't feel a single bad thing. Also, use a condom.

janniepeg agony auntMake it fun and light hearted. Sex doesn't always have to be about big serious changes, a rite into womanhood, loss of innocence, etc. It can also be flirty and playful. It shouldn't be something planned. Focus on the sensual. Replace thinking, worrying with feeling and sensing. Let your passion override your need for security and control. Yet there needs to be a variety of comfort sex, gentle sex, passionate sex and wild sex. You are going to want to postpone it because the unknown is always scary. But you'll feel much better once you break the ice and know that nothing bad would actually happen. Embrace the woman in you and follow the guidance of what nature tells you.

Moo's Mum agony auntSex with someone you truly love is always always better. My advice is to take it slowly and tell him you want to take it slowly. And by that I mean one night just kiss and touch. The next night add more and the next night even more and so on so you can build up to full on sex gently. This way you build lots of trust and understanding together.

Good luck tell him you are nervous he probably is too. Don't forget your condoms :-) Have fun

If your heart says no... just go with your instinct. If you do have intimacy remember CONDOMS always practice safe sex!!!!
