Only had my first kiss three days ago (29 yr old f), how do I get over my fear of sex?

I was raised being told that women who sleep around are sluts. This kept me terrified of the label so I never had sex or even kissed a guy. The other day I went on a first date and we kissed. It was pretty nice. I know he will be wanting sex at some point. I think I would enjoy sex but can’t get over the slut complex. I know I’m quite old now for that. I’m also scared that once I start I’ll actually turn into a slut who sleeps around because I’ve been repressed. Does anyone have any pointers for me?

  • Talk with this guy about it. Also take some time to realize that it's your body and as long as its consensual, of age, and no one gets hurt, it's no ones business but yours.

    Also if your worried about the slut complex, you can have an "alternate" sex life. Think, "saint in the street, but a freak in the sheets"

    Just because you have sex for the first time doesn't mean your instantly going to go wild and screw every male in a 100 mile radius.

    You controlled your sexual urges this long, you can absolutely control them again.

    Plus it's your sex life and you should live it the way you want. Dont let anyone dictate what is and isn't okay for sex. You are in control of your sex life no one else.

    If you talk with this guy about it I'm sure just the idea that he might get sex will get him interested. He'd probably be happy to talk about sex with you.

    I wish you a happy sexual awakening.

  • Definition of slut:

    Modern: a promiscuous woman.

    Arcane: a prostitute

    https://www.dictionary.com/browse/slut

    If you choose the modern meaning, then yes, you are if you are promiscuous.

    But personally, I stick to the original meaning: a prostitute.

    This means a person who offers sex for money.

    Hence if you do not take material payment, then you're not a prostitute hence not a slut.

  • Why not just stick with the kissing?
