Alright. During my last birthday party (I won't say how old I am, but I'm in my teens), my friends and I were playing classic Truth or Dare. Just joking around, one of my friends dared me to masturbate when everyone left. I'm actually pretty...innocent, I guess you could say when it comes to those things so I just ignored her and played it off.

But, when everyone did leave, I got a little curious. I've never really done anything sexual before, but you know that a girl can hear all kinds of things around school and on the internet nowadays. I knew that most girls put their fingers in their vaginas, but (I'm horrible embarassed to say) I wasn't exactly sure where or how things went it. I found my opening and tried putting my finger in, but it actually hurt a little. I remembered hearing that it usually hurts for a second, so I tried again. I managed to get my finger in all the way up to the knuckle, but it didn't feel all that great and still hurt just the tiniest bit. I tried leaving it there, then I tried moving it around, all with similar results.

Like I said before, I'm still pretty innocent with this stuff and I'm really embarassed. Am I doing it wrong? Or is something wrong with me? I really don't want to hurt myself, because what the heck would I say to my parents?

Please help.
If your not ready, which you obviously aren't don't do it.
i'm a teen too, and it would be terrible to have to tell your parents what happened if anything went wrong.
your not doing anything wrong, you'll have to just get used to that feeling maybe ..
or maybe you just weren't in the mood?
wasn't "turned on" enough..
keep trying , there's nothign wrong with you .
it's normal to hurt the first few times

First - I would say you have to be "in the mood" to masturbate...more so for girls than guys probably too! Make sure you have some privacy - and some time...and really just explore. You may need external stimulation (of and around your clitoris) more than internal. Each person is different. Touch...find what feels good to YOU.

I don't think there is anything wrong with you at all. Don't worry about that. Do you have a friend you can really trust? Maybe talking to her about it will help too.

Good luck!

If you've never put anything in there before, you may be running into your hymen (cherry). If that's something you want to preserve, you probably want to concentrate on playing with your clitoris, like rubbing around it, or rubbing on it directly if you can stand it. Use plenty of lube. Figure out what you like, have fun.
