Confidence for Your First Time đ
So, youâre thinking about your first time having sex? Thatâs a big dealâand itâs totally normal to feel pumped *and* a little freaked out. đ Whether itâs all new or youâre just curious, weâve got your back with tips to feel confident and chill. Letâs go! â¨
Are You Ready? Trust Your Gut đ§
First up: are you feeling this? Maybe itâs love, maybe itâs âwhy not?ââwhatever it is, make sure itâs *your* call. No pressure if youâre not there yetâwaitingâs cool too. When youâre hyped and comfy, thatâs your confidence kicking in. đ
Chat It Up With Your Partner đŁď¸
Talkingâs not weirdâitâs clutch! Tell them what youâre into or not ready for, like, âHey, Iâm new, letâs take it slow.â If theyâre good with it (and they should be!), youâll feel way more at ease. Spill the tea and own it! ââ¨
Consent = Your Superpower đ¤
Youâre the boss of your body. Consentâs a loud, happy âyesâ from both of youâevery step. Ask, âYou good with this?â or say, âNot yet,â if youâre not feeling it. Thatâs confidence in action, and itâs hot. đĽđŞ
Prep, But Donât Trip đ ď¸
No need to stress, just cover the basics: condoms or birth control (safety first!), a cozy spot, maybe a quick shower to feel fresh. Knowing youâre set lets you relax and vibe in the moment. đđż
Your Bodyâs a Rockstar đ
Forget âperfectââyour bodyâs dope as is. Stretch marks? Curves? All good! Focus on what feels nice, not some Instagram filter. Confidence is loving the skin youâre in, no edits needed. đâ¨
Keep It Real, Not Hollywood đŹ
First times arenât like moviesâsometimes itâs quick, messy, or you bonk heads (lol). đ Thatâs fine! Aim for fun and connection, not some epic scene. Less pressure = more you shining through.
Positions and MovesâKeep It Simple, Own It đş
Sex positions sound wild, but start easy! Try missionary (you on your back, them on top)âitâs chill, you can lock eyes, and itâs cozy. Or spooning (side-by-side, them behind)âsuper relaxed and sweet. Go slow, tweak it as you go, and donât sweat âperfectââthereâs no quiz! đ
Dos: Breathe deep to chill, move how it feels good (not forced), laugh if itâs awkwardâhumorâs a win. Donâts: Donât ignore discomfort (say something!), donât fake it (keep it real!), donât compare to porn (thatâs fake AF). Youâre running thisâown it! đ
Leveling UpâAdventurous Moves & How to Play It đśď¸
Ready to spice it up? Try cowgirl (you on top, running the show)âitâs bold, you set the pace, and it feels powerful AF. Or doggy style (hands and knees, them behind)âintense and fun if youâre vibing. These take some energy, so stretch a bit and keep chattingâlike, âHowâs this feel?â
Wanna kick it off? Go flirty with, âWanna try me on top?â or âHow about we switch it up?â Not into it? Say, âIâm good with what weâre doing,â or âMaybe next time, Iâm comfy here.â Confidence is owning your yes *and* your noâeasy peasy! đâ¨
After Feels? Totally Normal đ
Afterwards, you might feel all the thingsâhappy, weird, or âhuh, thatâs it?â All cool! Chat with a bestie or scribble it down if you wanna sort it out. Feeling solid about *your* choice keeps the confidence flowing. âď¸đ
Youâre Not Alone in This đ¤
Guess what? Everyoneâs nervous their first timeâeven the chill girls. Will it hurt? (Maybe a little, but it doesnât have to.) Will I mess up? (Nah, you wonât.) Knowing itâs a shared vibe makes it less scary. Weâre all figuring it out! đ¸
⨠Youâve Got This, Girl! â¨
Your first timeâs about youâyour comfort, your vibe, your rules. Be real, take charge, and enjoy it your way. Youâre 18, youâre awesome, and youâre ready to rock this however you want. Go you! đđ
