1. Never skip foreplay

There are a lot of reasons why foreplay is great. One of the big ones is that it helps you and your partner loosen up in a lot of ways. Not only does it help you feel less nervous, but it also helps you loosen up down there. If you go from one kiss to trying to put the P in the V, your vag probably won't be wet enough.

2. Lots of communication

Your partner might be super in tune with you, but he/she isn't a mind reader. And neither are you. Therefore, if you're experiencing pain during sex, you need to speak up. And you need to say something when it happens. Don't bite your lips and continue with it. You owe it to yourself to speak up.
