Sure, you're horny, but why do you want sex? Is it to fulfill the primal desire to get a good pounding, or do you miss the way that your ex

used to call you baby? Be clear on which you're after, and hey, it could be both! Then proceed from there. Maybe don't go out dancing and go home with

a fuckboi if you know you'll want him to call and take you out on dates. And maybe don't put all of that effort into divulging your deepest, darkest secrets on

OkCupid if you just want to bone.

They say it's just like riding a bike, ya know. You'll do great. Your pussy has not shriveled up, and you won't be "bad," unless, that is, you're not comfortable

in your own skin. Maybe that means masturbating everyday to get reacquainted with what you like so you can show your partner, exercising to feel invigorated, and trying out new

sexy poses in front of the mirror before trying them IRL.

It's a natural part of aging, or not ahem, using a certain part of yourself. Your vajayjay may need some help getting wet if you haven't gotten wet in a bit.

No shame in using some lube while getting back in touch with that side of yourself. And you may want to continue using it even after you get your groove

back- it works wonders on adding extra pizazz to a clitoral orgasm. 

Take a cue from the model above and wear some intricate lingerie. Let yourself ease into the experience, and shed your timidity as you shed your clothes, and all else.

Make foreplay a priority, engaging in a hefty make out, and letting him tease the hell out of you before even thinking about entering. Because would you put cookies into

an oven that isn't preheated? Maybe. But they're so much better when you wait.

Get everything checked out before your first encounter, and ask that the dude soon-to-be-inside-of-you does too. But if you don't want to wait for the test results to come back, then at

least use a condom in the meantime. Your safety is priority uno. F*ck long, and prosper, my friend.
