I tried anal for the first time!

So i just tried anal for the first time... it hurt not gonna lie, but my boyfriend is super sweet and didn’t rush me. I started out on top of him so that I could go at my own pace and that helped a lot. If you’re thinking about trying it I definitely would because it got better after a little and started to feel good. What helped a lot was going up and down like I was riding him but only on what was in at the time and slowly easing down like that. I’ve always wanted to try it so now I’m just waiting to see how sore I am tomorrow lol
