I'm sorry, it really can be hard to understand someone over text.

I had called the sex educator and told her my story of how I was a first-timer and had concerns about being physically and mentally ready, and she told me how it's normal to feel that way and that the key to a successful relationship and sex is clear communication. She talked about other things too, but since I didn't have any specific questions she just gave me the general run-down of safe sex. What she said that was interesting was that even though he tested clean of STD's and how I am using the Mirena, I should still use a condom in case there were STD's that were undetected or that sometimes the semen can actually cause yeast infections if my body is not used to it. And it is also better going "double dutch" to go the extra mile to prevent pregnancy, because one of my Dad's coworker's wife became pregnant on the Mirena.
