Did anal before loosing virginity??

Ok so I every time I tell a close friend this they are very shocked and I just want to know if I’m weird or if my body is weird or if anyone else can relate to this...

I did anal with a guy but I still have never had sex...(at the time)

So back story me and my (now ex) bf were ready to have sex. We were both virgins and we tried but and it just wouldn’t go in. Even though it was wet it just hurt and wouldn’t go in so (for some reason) I suggested we try anal instead. He told me it that it probably was also not gonna work cause anal normally hurts more than regular sex cause you have to stretch it a bit before to prepare but for some reason it worked out fine. It went in with little to no pain and I’ve never had anything up my butt before and his penis was pretty big too. But for some reason when he puts hardly one finger in my vagina it hurts like crazy. It was weird but it was what worked. People say it’s so weird that I did anal before having sex.

Since then I have had normal sex (with a smaller penis) but even that took a lot of effort and patience for me to have sex with my now current bf but anal was just so easy.

Is my body weird? Is this normal? Has anyone else had an easier time with anal then normal sex? And am I the only girl who’s done anal before regular sex?
