Wow, Honey, I give you a lot of credit for posting this. I’m sorry to hear that you were in such an abusive relationship but am very glad that you were strong enough to get yourself out of it. It’s strange how, when we’re young, we really don’t know any better (about relationships, sex, and pretty much everything else). Looking back, it all seems so clear.

Thanks to everyone for all your supportive comments! It's a little strange for me to think of the post as brave...I certainly wasn't very brave at the time. But I'm happy to share my story if it means others don't experience it. As Holly says above, bad sexual situations are common for women, and they shouldn't be.

Wow. I hadn't even thought about the feeling of "supposed to end up with the person who took your virginity"... maybe that's why I felt so awful about my first. He wasn't bad for me but I knew he wasn't the one I wanted to end up with. I just felt guilt like I was supposed to save it for someone else. What an honest post. And I agree with Single Mom Seeking... it does make me feel protective of girls who don't know better. T´s last blog post...My brother, the race car driver

Oh, Honey, that was so brave of you to share. I think the title is a question a lot of people face, and it is great that you chose to address it that way. Thanks for doing so. NewWrldYankee´s last blog post...You Dragged a Rampaging Virgin out of Me!

Honey - your first boyfriend sounds like a guy who dated one of my post-divorce girlfriends before she dated me. She had similar stories of forced bjs, abusive behavior, etc. She had trouble leaving him, just like you. She was thrilled that I treated her with respect, and helped her orgasm. (Kind of like you meeting Lance). I'm sorry you had that guy as your first lover. But, God how I wish that someone had told me I almost certainly wouldn’t end up with the first guy I slept with, and that was okay. It might have given me the courage to end things sooner. - I was raised the same way. Looking back, I certainly wish I'd been told you could move on from your first lover. There's so much guilt, most of it brought on by parents and society. dadshouse´s last blog post...Smashing Pumpkins, The Fillmore Residency

Very brave post Honey. It was hard to read because it made me feel so much -- thank you for putting this one down. It makes me feel very protective of young women out there. Single Mom Seeking´s last blog post...Why I’m aspiring to be a virgin again

Ugh. Sounds like your first time was as crappy as mine. Thanks goodness we both learned that, as Kat Wilder said, owning our sexual power lies within us and have not only overcome, but risen above. Thanks for sharing. lisaq´s last blog post...Addicted to Love
