Is it normal to fear penetration even though i'm not a virgin

I lost my virginity years ago but now whenever I have sex, especially if it's been awhile I always fear that initial penetration because it hurts. So I tense up and hesitate right before he enters & that doesn't make the situation better. Once it's completely in though I'm fine because it doesn't feel painful then. So is this normal? And what can I do to relax and not freak out?

    Let him perform oral on you beforehand or let the foreplay go a bit longer. You need to get more comfortable before letting him penetrate you.

    I agree with the other posters, more foreplay and try to relax :)

    Fingering works too.
