My first time with a guy happened in high school, and it was with my best friend. We had been inseparable for years, and while I always felt a little different around him, I never thought much of it. One night, we were having a sleepover, and after hours of talking, we started playing truth or dare—just for fun.
At one point, he dared me to kiss him. I laughed it off, but he didn’t. He looked at me seriously and said, “I’m curious. Aren’t you?” That question hit me like a ton of bricks because, deep down, I was curious. I leaned in and kissed him, and it felt like the most natural thing in the world.
That night, we didn’t go any further, but we did talk about what had happened. He admitted he had been feeling the same way for a while but was too scared to say anything. We decided to explore those feelings together, slowly and without any pressure.
Those months were some of the most formative of my life. Even though we eventually drifted apart, that first experience taught me so much about trust, communication, and the importance of being honest with yourself. It was the start of a journey that I’m still on, and I’ll always be grateful for the way it began.
