And I’m sure the HIV virus is very respectful. The fact is, she won’t know if she’s just commited a slow and agonizing form of suicide for another three to six months.
Because she deserves zero praise for her actions.
“Well, I drove last night fucked up on alcohol, and not wearing a seatbelt, and not looking at the road. But I know I did something bad, and I won’t do it again. Oh, everybody tell me how cool it was that I drove for the first time last night!”
It was her first time. She was understandable nervous and excited.
Do you remember your first time?
I do. I was so flustered I couldn’t think straight.
And its in the past. It happened.
Nervous and excited give you leave to expect praise for doing something totally irresponsible and absolutely non-laudatory?
Well, if it’s in the past, we certainly can’t talk about it :rolleyes:
You’re forgetting that this incident ‘in the past’ is the OP of this thread. She obviously expected to be praised or slapped on the back for losing her virginity. She doesn’t deserve praise, as she was tremendously irresponsible.
Some people do. And its not your call to say whether or not they should be doing it.
I’m guessing you’ve never had sex, have you?
Your lame-ass rant is clearly from someone whos never been in that situation before.
Sure its easy to say how stupid we’ve been in retrospect, but when you’re actually there, things are different.
Sheesh, come on. It’s not as if she were sharing needles with a prostitute from sub-saharan Africa, here. Yes, she made a dumb mistake, but she probably won’t come out of it with anything incurable. A bit of a scare, some time and expense, and maybe a course of antibiotics should drive home the using-condoms point adequately, don’t you think?
Tracy, glad your first time went so well, and I hope you didn’t pick up anything unpleasant from it.
Boy-O. Nothing like an attitude of being a wet blanket on someone’s happiness. I sure hope you stone-throwers have your premiums paid on the glass houses you inhabit.
I’m a human being, I’ve made mistakes, and lived to regret them, as well as learning that those flaws make me human. I’ve also learned that there are some cases wherein if you’ve nothing good to say, saying nothing is a better choice.
You took a chance there, but you seem to know what it was and are going to take steps to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Carry protection with you at all times in a dating situation from now on, even if you’re sure you won’t need it.
Congratulations. I waited until I was 27, though not by choice, and I’m married to the woman who was my first encounter.
Have fun, but be careful, and try to find someone you can trust and care for. Mrs. Six did the short-term relationship with little emotional commitment thing for a while and quickly found it hollow and unsatisfying. YMMV.
FinnAgain, if you can transport back in time and yell at her 3 days ago, I’d be all for it. As it is, she can’t change her actions and has already decided to follow a safer course in the future.
