I was 17 when I lost mine to a guy named Alex. We aren’t in contact anymore.

This, exactly 😳

Dollmeup · 05/11/2023 08:38

Yes, we are still Facebook friends. He's a nice guy and we had fun together. No regrets.

WiffleBallBat · 05/11/2023 08:38

We are married.

Rocknrollstar · 05/11/2023 09:01

It was first time for both of us and we are still married.(to each other)

PinkyDinkyDoodle · 05/11/2023 09:12

Yes, and yes. I haven’t seen him in over 35 years, but we are in contact via social media. I still get the occasional message asking if I’ll go and check on his parents because they aren’t answering the phone and he’s worried. (He lives miles away now, but I’m still local) He is perfectly lovely, and we are both happily married to other people.

RudsyFarmer · 05/11/2023 09:13

I’m so old that I can’t 100% remember details anymore. It was all a bit sketchy, but no we’re no longer in contact. DP can’t remember his first time at all 🤣

superanonymous · 05/11/2023 09:16

Yeah,daily :) we are married with 6 children .

weegiemum · 05/11/2023 09:40

Yes, he's lying beside me fast asleep right now. We've been married for 29 years!

Haydug · 05/11/2023 09:45

Yes! We're married with a child. I was 19.

I'm still to this day not sure if my first experience counts, it was a mortifying 'couldn't keep an erection situation', but technically there was some penetration. Cringey to think of even now.

We were together over a year and madly in love, but I wanted to wait til I turned 17, we did lots of other intimate stuff but planned to lose our virginity together that Summer. It was hard on him, he was older and in Uni and turning down opportunities cos he had a girl back home while his friends were having one night stands, yet he was still a virgin! When I said I was ready and we arranged a meet up alone, which was really tricky at the time, we had that disastrous attempt and it was really upsetting. After that he was withdrawn, started being mean to me and we basically argued all the time. We had another chance to be alone weeks later and he had been drinking and smoking weed, and basically fell asleep as soon as I started to talk to him. So we broke up. I went off to Uni not knowing what I was, I didn't want to sleep with a stranger but didn't want another relationship. I got into a friends with benefits situation with someone who kind of knew the story, but then he told his pals and they all thought I was an easy lay. You can't bloody win.

A few months later after moving in the same circles socially and things being hostile I got to talk frankly and soberly with my ex. He finally confessed that he had been drunk on a night out and shagged a girl in the car park of a nightclub that he only met 5 minutes earlier. That was literally a day or two before I said I was ready for us to sleep together. This information broke my heart. But thinking back I see he was tortured by a guilty conscience and couldn't be intimate with me. About 10 years later when I was engaged we bumped into each other, he was really drunk and told me that he missed me for years and he had hardly let anyone truly know him the way I did, he said he couldn't let people in and I said I forgave him for what happened back then. It was nice to have closure because I felt for years like I wasn't good enough and it sounds like he was troubled by it all too. We are not in touch but he lives near my family home and I kind of know the girl he married, and I could track him down in 5 mins if I chose to. I sometimes feel sad just thinking about it all, sorry for the long post but it feels good to rethink it and type it out.

Missedmytoe · 05/11/2023 10:06

I'm married to them

WeightoftheWorld · 05/11/2023 10:10

Numbersarefun · 20/04/2023 14:40

Yes - married to him!

Same here!

applebee33 · 05/11/2023 10:24

Yes my first long term boy friend at 15, I was with him for 2 years and he waited patiently for me to give the go ahead , I remember it so well , it was a little bit painful 😣 but he was v gentle and we waited for about 2 months before we did it again , then horses couldn't stop us. He is happily married now to a school friend with kids and I am glad I think back fondly on the experience

gravitytester · 05/11/2023 12:25

I was 18, he was my first boyfriend and didn't believe me when I said I'd never done it. Says everything you need to know about that relationship tbh.
Hindsight, hey? 🤣

FrenchFancie · 05/11/2023 12:31

No, on account of how it was date rape. I was 18 and in my first term at university.

recently found out that the fucker is dead. Would love to find out where he is buried so I could dance on his grave.

Alalalalalongalalalalalonglonglilong · 05/11/2023 13:07

So sorry to hear that @FrenchFancie

Decafflatteplease · 05/11/2023 13:31

Reader, I married him 🙂

IloveGogglebox · 08/02/2024 07:51

@applebee33 that's lovely 🥰

danesch · 08/02/2024 08:14

Yes, I was 18 and he was my first 'proper' boyfriend.

Had really horrible break-up and both treated each other badly. Now good friends (he is one of my DH's very best friends), our families holiday together etc etc, so yes, we are still in touch.

Bedazzling · 08/02/2024 08:49

Yes of course and no I’m not in touch.
He carved out initials on a pair of entwined trees down a lane near his house.
Last I heard which was ages ago he was a carpenter.

We used to drink dandelion and burdock together in the field and I remember having a cow pat fight with him. Obviously grew up rurally, he was a lovely lad actually and we dated for a year.

mondaytosunday · 08/02/2024 08:52

Yes and no - it was over 40 years ago and I've moved countries three times.

Shutupyoutart · 08/02/2024 08:55

Yep i was 15( almost 16) was going out with him for 6 months before we slept together and the same day we did he kissed another girl I was devastated. Still was silly enough to take him back and put up with another couple of years of shite from him including stalking and threats that he would kill himself if I broke up with him. Not my finest moments. Needless to say we are no longer in touch.

MidnightSerenader · 08/02/2024 08:57

Yes, he was a nice guy. I was 17/18. It was the summer of 1991/92.

About 4 or so years ago he sent me a friend request on FB.

It was nice to see what he’s up to - happily married, living in another country, 5 kids. Most surprising is that he has found God, which he certainly had not when I knew him….!

Stormysundaymorning · 08/02/2024 09:07

I was16 he was 23 🤮. Looking back he must have been a pervert. This was early 90s and all my mates had much older boyfriends it was normal.

ShinyBandana · 08/02/2024 09:53

Yeah, we were both 17 although he wasn’t a virgin. I bunked off geography and we did it in his mums bed (that wasn’t weird at the time but now when I think back ….. urghhhh)

The whole 3 years we were together was a crazy sex-filled time. We probably didn’t have anything else in common 🤣. The relationship fizzled out when I was at uni.

We didn’t stay in touch, but we had some mutual friends who contacted me a few years ago to let me know that he had died.
