Using dildo as a virgin

Hey girls, i dont know if i post this or not lol but i have a serious question. I am 21 and a virgin... so it wasnt a big problem for me till this year i guess. My boyfriend is in another country and we cant meet of course now. We are having "sexting" and its awesome but i know we need also more :( I am thinking of using sex toys like dildo but is it stupid to loose virginity like that? (Actually i dont mind it so much) and i am afraid asking it to my bf because... u know
