Hi everybody. I am an 18 year old male, and my girlfriend is the same age as me. We have been dating like 2 months but I’ve known her a lot longer than that. We have been bringing up intimacy as of lately and I am going to have sex with her soon. I already have all the things prepared. However, I am a little nervous, since I haven’t had an orgasm in a long time. I just wanted to see if I was capable of it and never really stopped, so it has been several years. Do you think I should be masturbating before I begin to have sex? I want to make sure that it isn’t too foreign of a feeling for me, because I am not good with new experiences in general. However, I figure sex is one of those things you are supposed to do in a relationship, so I should probably be used to this sort of thing. My overall attitude towards sex is “I can do without it” but if it makes my girlfriend happy, I am willing to oblige. Do you all have any advice? I don’t want to be weird and awkward about it. submitted by /u/Simple_Sundae3766
