Hi. You seem to be concerned about two things: can I possibly be pregnant because some semen leaked out of your anus toward your vagina during anal sex and some loss of your sense of your self as a sexual person. I think they may be connected.. but first things first. While it is unlikely you would become pregnant this way, unprotected sex always sets you up to worry. So think through how you can protect yourself from this worry and consult a woman's clinic or a Planned Parenthood for a contraceptive you would be comfortable using. When you said you don't "feel like a sexual person anymore," it may be that the worry about pregnancy turns you off and therefore protecting yourself is a good first start in feeling more comfortable with sex. It also may be that anal sex is not your thing. Think through what it is about sex that you really groove on and focus on that. Keep true to your own wishes and desires and communicate them to your partner. Never agree to do something sexual that you really do not want to do. Talk to a counselor if those feelings of loss continue.
