I was 13 and with a boy who was also 13. It was totally unextraordinary and not worth elaborating on. But, I wanted it. I was insatiably curious about sex. Looking back, of course, I realize that I was much too young and that it led to my pursuing other relationships that I definitely was not ready for.
