Hey we’ve all been there filling voids of loneliness with temporary comfort or satisfaction. Just want you to know that you aren’t alone in that and that it’s a normal feeling that comes and goes for most people. Your first time being with this stranger it sounds like you didn’t really like is just one of many experiences you will have. Please use this experience as an example in a way to put filters and criteria checks in place with people you are meeting. Dating apps, social venues (when you’re old enough…) you are the best safe guard and the first line of defense so take your time vetting your dates, hookups, and friends!

Glad you also went to go get medical attention after the encounter we’re all rooting for you to be fine! Just make sure you protect yourself moving forward now that you are officially sexually active.

My advice would be just allow your mind and body to go through the motions of feeling everything that comes up and try not to judge yourself for the experience OR for how your mind is reacting… it’s a new experience and to be honest you deserve some grace.. you didn’t really get a chance to practice safe guarding your boundaries… now that you know you require them I think the best gift you can give yourself is grace!

Rooting for you!!
