Is this normal?

Hey all. I know there are probably tonnes of threads on this, I've briefly scoured through and didn't really find anything, so I thought I'd ask. I've recently lost my virginity, and after having sex a few times it still bloody hurts! Of course I knew it was inevitable the first time, but I did expect it to get better. I just can't imagine it ever feeling pleasurable ;no; even lube didn't really help, though it was easier.

Thankies in advance

Im sure it'll get better after time. Make sure you have lots of foreplay beforehand to make things easier!

It hurt like the first 10 times for me. And it didn't start to actually get GOOD for a while after that, haha. It was okay, but not amazing and still uncomfortable sometimes =/

I was having a discussion with a few of my cousins recently and apparently yes. But its supposed to go away after a few weeks. If I remember correctly you're also supposed to give at least a few days in between each time. errr.... yes, thats about all I can remember. Hope this helps!!
