I am 20, and now I feel that sex is DISGUSTING. Sometime I even want to
throw up when my friends mention those horrible stuffs about sex to me.
I used to have sex about over a year ago with my ex-bf . But I had
never enjoyed it even once. And whenever I think about it, I feel I
hate myself, I hate being a human that have to do these DISGUSTING
stuffs.
Is it normal to be feeling like this? I’m worrying about my future, the
marriage life…
What is wrong with me? What should I do?
