Losing virginity - I just have a few questions..?

I cant really give you much advise since im a virgin myself and im 17 but i do no that it is suppose to hurt ive been told as the hymen breaks i wont imagine it will be pleasurable at first but once uve done it a couple of times it shouldnt bother you use lots of gel to lesson the pain and make sure that you are completely relaxed cause being tense makes it more painful
