Losing Your Virginity/Confused

Question
I'm 18 yrs old an so is my boyfriend.I'm a virgin but he's not. Last night we
decided to have sex. He inserted his penis but it hurt way too much so I told
him to take it out. Am I still a virgin or not?  

Answer
That is a very complicated question dear. Technically in order to know if your a text book virgin or not you would have to know if your hymen broke. Did you bleed at all? I suppose it would depend on the penetration, did he fully insert into you? If so, you're probably not a virgin. However the word virgin comes from the ideal that you are innocent in an area. I would say you are no longer a virgin to the sexual experience but I would say your still a virgin in the intercourse aspect. If you are ready to lose your virginity, you're going to have to push past the pain of the first time, and the discomfort of a few times after that before you can comfortable have sex. It's important to remain relaxed, comfortable, and lubricated during your first intercourse encounter. Also use a condom. It protects you, and it helps slide the penis in. Good luck. Let me know if I can be of anymore help.
