losing my virginity

I'm a girl and I'm losing my virginity really soon to my boyfriend. I finally feel ready and we have been dating for a while. he is a little bit older than me though (I'm 21, he's 30) and he's had sexual partners in the past. I know I should know this stuff but the truth is that I have never really been educated on this topic before. are you supposed to give oral whilst he wears a condom? also...... i can of course talk to him about these things but I'm not too sure how. how do i ask him about things related to STDs, especially as he's had sex before and I'm not entirely sure about his sexual past.

I would mention these things just before things start getting heated and start leading up to possibly having sex. It shouldn't be an awkward conversation and you can just straight up ask him questions and if he refuses to answer them, just remind him that you're asking only for your health benefit.

There is no right or wrong way to do things. I know many people give oral sex without the use of condoms, but if you would rather use one then that's up to you. But I would advise you use a flavoured one. I've heard normal condoms have a very awful taste to them.

He should wear a condom whilst penetrating but NO WAY should you give him oral sex whilst he wears a condom, no way. Generally, a blowjob is something which is used as foreplay, so that should come first before I puts on the condom, and then afterwards, he puts the condom on for penetration. Don't perform oral on him whilst/after he wears the condom because you'll have the taste of lube in your mouth which I suspect is unpleasant

I'm just trying to imagine sucking someone's penis whilst the person is wearing a condom, a condom soaked in lube like omg that would taste horrible surely?

Not if it’s flavoured :’)
