my boyfriend wants us to try anal sex; i am usually a very open minded person up for most things but the idea of anal really doesn't turn me on; however i am going to try it because it is something which my boyfriend seems really keen on . I like being taken from the back (in my pussy) but the thought of it up my ass scares me a little. A friend of mine did it recently and she said it felt like she was being ripped open. Everyone else i know who has experienced it says it is very, very painful also. i just wondered if anyone could tell me if it really is as painful as people are making out and i would really appreciate any tips or advice you can give me on how to make anal sex more comfortable or enjoyable??
