I'm no longer a virgin.
I never once imagined that I would be saying those words as a 19-year-old girl who is not married.
For as long as I can remember, my mother has always had my life planned out and I quietly went along with it.
Now I've broken one of her biggest rules and I don't find myself regretting it, not even the tiniest bit.
How could I regret something so special to me?
She always insisted on finding me a good Catholic boy that will marry and look after me and I went along with it like a good daughter.
It made my mother happy to plan my future and I contentedly let her until Domenico walked into my life and changed my mindset.
The moment I set my eyes on him I knew I was in for trouble. What I didn't realise at the time was just how deep I would fall.
Since the moment I met him, I often found myself admiring him from across the room, thinking about him and having odd thoughts like what his lips would feel like against my own.
I brushed off my thoughts, assumed I had a small crush and told myself that's all it would ever be. It wasn't like Domenico would ever truly notice or want a girl like me.
Little did I know just how wrong I was.
My mother warned me to stay away from boys like Domenico and assured me that boys like Noah were the ones truly worth my time and attention.
As much as I like Noah, I couldn't imagine being with someone so nice and polite. I don't want to be with someone so similar to me.
