Did I orgasm? I'm not sure.?

I'm going to give you the full story so you can better understand it.

If I did, it was pretty underwhelming. I'm 19 years old, and my boyfriend and I (now separated for the summer) have been together about three months. Though I've had one boyfriend before him (who I did nothing with, not even kissing), he's probably the first guy I've ever been physically and sexually attracted to. I thought I was asexual for the longest time because I never felt the need to go out and bang something in my hormone-raging teen years. I wasn't interested in sex, and I certainly never felt like I had to masturbate. And behold, second semester of my freshman year in college I meet my current boyfriend of 3 1/2 months, who I love and plan on marrying in the future (it's ok; he is too). Before him, I was a virgin and had tried touching myself once or twice to no avail.

As of today, albeit a short break in between, we've had sex 12 times. I haven't climaxed once or even come remotely close. Sometimes, I can't even tell the difference between the condoms we use. We do foreplay, but I guess he doesn't give it enough time, and I partly blame me for not knowing my own body. He's only had one sexual partner before me, and she was his girlfriend of 9 months (he was her fourth partner), and they were sexually active after their first week together. So granted he's had lots of practice; it took him 15 tries to get her off, though after he figured her out she never had trouble orgasming even though he does ejaculate a little prematurely. And I do have trouble, so it's a little disheartening, and I'm finding myself jealous of every woman (including his ex because she got to share it with him) who's been able to climax. It's something I don't want to miss out on. Yes, I've tried cowgirl a few times, but it doesn't necessarily feel fantastic. It's still super awkward trying to find out what feels good, and if you don't know what does, how are you supposed to learn? We've done doggy too but have failed because both times really hurt me. I was left thinking that maybe I couldn't have an orgasm.

So finally, I sucked it up. I tried touching myself. Because it's super hard to get me into the mood, and I don't get any symptoms of female arousal other than getting wet (cementing my idea of being asexual but wanting romantic attachments), I didn't use my fingers. It just doesn't work. I picked up my finger vibrator that I had bought a few weeks back and gave it a go, kind of forcing myself to feel good because I wasn't very aroused. I put some music on in the background and relaxed. I teased myself first before putting it on the clitoris. It felt damn good so I guess my pleasure receptors aren't completely dead. It only took a couple minutes from that point to bring me to what I THINK was an orgasm. My body tightened, my breathing got heavier, my leg muscles twitched, and I felt heat pooling and spreading to my chest. Then I got a head rush that made my head buzz and I relaxed. That was it. It only lasted a few seconds. Then I was confused. Was this an orgasm? It's very underwhelming if it was. I didn't feel the need to scream out and moan, I didn't get any pulsating or spasms that left me shaky or blissful and unable to stand up. It wasn't very earth-moving or the incredible experience every girl has made it out to be. It left me feeling nice, but it didn't last so I'm guessing it was a small one. Did I have an orgasm? I'm kind of let down. Another thing I'm worried about is becoming dependent on a vibrator to get me off. I want to figure out how to do it with my boyfriend or with my own hands. Any help is appreciated.

    First of all, never blame yourself for 'not knowing' your own body.

    So, clearly you have a low sex drive. You really need to find what turns you on big time. I never masturbated until I WANTED to (or arguably NEEDED to), which was when I got sexually aroused. I could literally be doing the same exact physical masturbatory motions on myself which makes me orgasm when turned on, but would never be able to orgasm no matter how long I did it if I WASN'T turned on.

    Is there any kind of fantasy or fetish or porn genre or pictures of a big-time crush that would help get you aroused?

    Things that can help boost your sex drive are good diet and exercise. See your doctor too! Be open about your low libido.

    Now to actually answer your question, from your description it does sound like you had a small orgasm. I've had those too. I've had some that are mind blowing and others that are just like 'meh'. The biggest ones I had were when I was very mentally aroused.

    I know having a low libido can be very discouraging and frustrating. But it's just the way the chips fell. Do your best to do the most you can...talking to doc, diet & exercise, exploring what gets you mentally aroused.

    EDIT: @ Yaz Smith. Great answer, but I do want to address what you said about orgasms (clitoris vs vagina). Lots of women can not even orgasm vaginally and have explosive clit orgasms. I know you're speaking from experience, but lots of women (including myself) would NEVER think clitoral orgasms take a back seat to vaginal ones. Just saying so that the asker doesn't get the idea that vaginal orgasms are the only way to go.

    Hi. Im going to answer u from my own personal experience.

    What happened to me was very much like wats happened to u. I was married for 4 years, i was virgin before that . Never ever ever had an orgasm with my husband. I swear on my life neverrr everrr.

    I thought it was something wrong with me. I was convinced that it was.

    He also came prematurely didnt give me enough foreplay.

    So therefore i was never actually turned on.

    I call that to be selfish. The guy needs to give u time also to enjoy urself.

    We are divorced now. I went out with some one else. We havent had sex yet but just by him kissing me and kissing my back, i start to feel orgasmic. I realized its not me. I was actually never attracted physically to my ex husband. Also that hes too selfish in bed.

    I couldnt convince myself that i wasnt attracted to him. I hate myself for giving up 4 years of crap sex of my life. First of all find out if u r actually attrcated to this guy physically. Be careful. U could even love him, but sexual attraction is something else.

    Its not u.

    This is what women start to do wen their man is selfish in bed. They depend on vibrator.

    Its not that he cums prematurely. He cums because he wants to. He should give u at least 40mins foreplay. Does he?? If he does and u still not turned on properly. Then ur not attracted to him.

    Also......wat u had is a clitoris orgasm, yes they are nice but not too satisfying.

    Wat u should have with ur bf is a vaginal orgasm, which is the big deal, that leaves u breathless.
