I never used to be, but recently I've started to re-evaluate my ideas about anal sex. A very close friend has shown interest in topping me and he suggested preparing myself by fingering while jerking off. Now, I've never done that and, while the idea of being topped is extremely arousing, when I finger myself it either hurts or feels...New. Not necessarily "pleasurable" nor "painful" either.
I use lots of lube, but I'm very tight. I just can't seem to relax. He jokes that I couldn't bottom for a mouse!
Any suggestions, experiences, advice?
It's always good to get the hole relaxed and used to having something in it before fucking it. The anal sphincter is as sensitive as the head of your cock or nipples. like those, if you play it just right it will be a source of ecstasy. Treat it too harshly and it'll just be a pain in the butt, lol!
I'm going to suggest that you watch Corbin Fisher videos that feature 'Lucas' topping. For a so-called 'straight stud', he's actually become very good at preparing a bottom's ass for the main event. He's an enthusiastic rimmer, alternating between gently licking and vigorously munching down and tongue-fucking his bottom. Then he introduces a lubed finger, and then another.
Good idea to get a fair amount of lube inside your hole prior to insertion.
A really good prep job can go a long way towards mitigating the 'size' factor; and my opinion is that once it's in size isn't a major factor -- 'it ain't the meat it's the motion', lol. A good top will be aware of your comfort and pleasure, and will alternate between rowdy drilling and long, slow thrusts.
Mix up positions. I like to start off missionary, only cuz i get off on seeing my partner's face as his cock first feels my tightness. however, different positions will give you different sensations. doggie is really hot if ur in a rowdy animal mood and want to be 'mounted', lol! personally, i love getting slapped on the cheeks when a dude is drilling me from behind. The other great thing about rear entry is that your partner can work your ears and neck with his mouth, and his hands are free to play with your nipples, cock, and nuts.
Hygiene. It's a good idea to make sure you're empty before assplay. Anal stimulation can be cathartic (i.e. make you wanna pooh) Fleet enemas are about a buck, and will clean you out. Ever the boyscout, I always try to be prepared
Some guys use poppers to relax their anal sphincters. Personally, I've never like 'em -- all they do is give me a headache. Will leave this up to you.
Lastly, cumming with a cock in you takes orgasm to another level altogether
