When I saw Renee's post I had to laugh so hard! This is a big confession
post here.... I am overweight and have bad acne too, and I had
relatively little experience with guys before I met the guy who's now my
husband. He was raised in a very strict religious home and had no idea
about women prior to meeting me... he is SUCH a geek! Computer nerd
central.
Anyway, while we really enjoyed sort of discovering each other, and we
do share somthing special that I'm glad for, it took us a full ***three
months*** to figure out how sex worked properly. Is that the saddest
thing you ever heard or what? One day we just sort of did it right and
we both stopped and seriously went, "ohhhhh!! I get it now!"
So sad!
