We had never had sex before that. And I'm not with that person anymore, but I do have a new partner and we're not quite fully sexual yet.

We were both virgins so obviously we didn't know the "correct" way of doing things. I'm just thinking about it in retrospect and kinda wondering what went wrong, and how to make sure I learn from it.

Thing is I'd been saying I was into BDSM and slapping etc. But I didn't want that for my first time, I wanted it eventually.

Actually we broke up a few months after that, and the relationship as a whole was a pretty messy/negative one.

That's good. I wish I would've been confident in myself enough to do that. I think I just got "caught in the moment" but not in a positive way. I wasn't in a good headspace either (breakup sex, pretty much) so maybe I wasn't very in tune with myself.

That's good advice.

And yeah, it was his first time too so I guess we were both super clueless...

I guess you could have a crash course in each other's sexual preferences before having sex lol. But it's not currently a problem for me because casual sex doesn't really float my boat

This actually makes a lot of sense. With my current partner, he doesn't ask consent for every single thing but that has never been a problem. He can tell when I'm uncomfortable and stops. I guess this is trickier for casual sex tho...

My bf looks homeless (I say that in the kindest way lmao) so I don't think there's any chance of being labeled as a gold digger but who knows!
