A bike saddle is kind of like marriage, or more specifically picking a spouse. You try some, toughen up from dating, discard a few (maybe a lot), and endure some bad experiences. Even good ones take some tweaking to reach perfection. Then as you age and change, you need to keep trying new things to stay fresh.
In these terms, 'sounds like you've had your first date...ever. Be patient with your butt, keep things clean, and keep riding.
