I used to hear my mom saying this quote, I didn't believe in it until I got old.
I remember my first day at school, I hated everything about it, the teachers, how long I stay there, how much homework I take and even hated the kids, when I had got home, my mom said that " you hate it cause it's your first time there" as "first time always hurts", I was like "she have got to be kidding me, I am not going to love this shit or something !".
But after that I enjoyed my school life and I do still enjoy it, I love my friends, my teachers and even the school it self!
I believed in the quote only after falling in love. when I talked to the guy I used to love, he was really cold, he was talking like we are talking daily although it has been a long time since we last talked and met.
I realized how much he changed and that really hurt me so I decided to get over him.
As long as it's so easy for me to get over something I taught I'm getting over him in at most two weeks, but here I am still thinking of him and trying to figure out the reason why he was that cold and the reason why he changed.
And that made me believe in the quote as I didn't need anybody to tell me so, I said it my self "FIRST TIME ALWAYS HURTS".
Feel free to correct :)
Have a nice day !
