How did you lose your virginity?

I was 18 and she was 17. I was lucky enough to have my own apartment and we decided to a couple of days beforehand to do it. We were both virgins. The next day we did it again and it was much more pleasurable. I used a condom to be safe. In fact I used condoms all the time during my younger years. I later came to regret this was I discovered the joys of doing it the natural way. I'm sure my earlier sexual experiences would have been more fulfilling if I hadn't used condoms.
