Lost my virginity

Question:

I don’t know what to do. I lost my virginity with the boy I thought I “loved” last week. He hasn’t called, texted, or talked to me in person since. I am so full of grief that I can hardly feel anything at all.

Phyllis replied:

I’m sorry for you. To be ignored is so painful. But you haven’t lost your life or your chance for a better relationship. You didn’t say if you’ve tried to contact him, but if he is not returning your calls, there is little you can do other than chalk it up to experience and be very careful in the future. If he is a person who would go around telling others about his experience with you, I would say simply to those who ask, “It was a big mistake, but it’s over.”
