Nervous of trying ecstasy

Okay so I've never done ecstasy before and I'm a little nervous for my first time which might be coming up soon.
I heard that some people are more sensitive to it than others because they aren't born with the proper enzymes to metabolize mdma, which can lead to easier overdoses / over heating
I've also heard that 2/100,000 people can die from it (erowid) and was wondering what this means.
I know the easy things...like drinking one liter of water an hour, but I was curious if there is anything I really need to worry about. I'm not talking about repetitive use, just trying it once. I just wouldn't want anything to go wrong on my first time, especially death or a bad reaction.

If it makes you feel any better, what you probably have isn't ecstasy; its probably meth. From what I hear, its more common. Hope that helps...

Yeah, ecstasy is extremely impure.
Some precausions to take to prevent dying:
Drink lots and lots of pure water, even if your not thirsty. Don't overwork yourself physically. Don't get in a fight. I did, and had on and off blackouts, and chest pain for 2 days. It wasn't cool. Don't take more than two pills, you probably wont need that many anyway.
Don't be nervous though, it's an interesting experience and if you with your friends you will have a great time. The second you start rolling, you will understand why.

i haven't heard of someone getting pure mdma in years. most of it seems to be just a mixture of ketamine/dxm/meth/mdma.
why don't they just make pure mdma pills? wouldn't it be more expensive to go through another procedure that creates ketamine or meth?

I've tried nutmeg before so I can say i'm not allergic to it. I don't know what they have in common though.

I'm going to do half a pill my first time, not one or two. I could look it up on the few websites out there, hopefully I could find a match.
But i'm talking about just mdma, not the other mixtures. And let's say there was meth in it, I'm taking it orally so is it as bad as actually doing meth?

I'm not an experienced drug user beyond one powerful psychedelic. But I think if you have nervousness, you should go ahead and pass on it. Not that you should live your life avoiding things that make you nervous. But its different with things you put inside your body, in my opinion.

I had the same thoughts when before I first tried ecstasy. But eventually you see a friend doing it and they seem perfectly fine, charging, but fine. Then on top of that is the dosage. A single pill if it's a good one will put of OFF CHOPS and you'll wake up wondering WTF just happened? So, start with a quarter... wait 30 - 60min, take the next quarter... by then you should start to be feeling the onset of la la land... at which point wait another hour and drop the last half. This way you can stop after having the first quarter. Also note that all pills are different and more often then not they are also cut with speed or amphetamines... this is because speed has similar effects to x (gives you more energy, confidence). Some also might have more MDMA than others.... if your not certain go to www.pillreports.com and you can search a database of user posted pills with a clear description of their "suspected" contents.
Note, if your going to do it, go to a laser light show/rave or a club with heaps of lighting and loud ass music and I guarantee you will have the best time haha.

Almost all dangers associated with ecstasy can be easily avoided as long as you know a few key things.
First off, dont worry so much. It will only make it that much harder to get comfortable while you are rolling. Clear your head of all your problems, drop the pills and just sit back and let it wash over you. If you go into a trip worrying about all the worst case scenarios and what not, you are going to have a bad experience.
Make sure you regulate your body temperature because it goes loopy on MDMA and spikes all over the place. The way I make sure that my body is at a reasonable threshold is to change into some light and comfortable clothing for the trip. and if I still feel as if my body is running too hot, I go outside for 5 minutes and let it come back down before going inside again.
The only time I ever hear of people dying from ecstasy is when they exert themselves all night long and forget to hydrate in between.
So go into this experience with an open mind and leave all that stress at the door. Make sure to regulate your temp and to drink a glass of water every 45-60 minutes and you should be fine. Ecstasy is an amazing drug, enjoy.

I've spent hours researching X and it's something I really don't want to miss out on. Which is why i'm asking if it's possible for a bad reaction on half a pill.
I think passing on X because I'm nervous is a stupid reason. I just want to make sure i'm safe.

Forget everything you've "heard" and do your own research. You'll find that MDMA is remarkably safe. Almost everything you've heard about it and almost everything people say about it is wrong.

No, I don't even think you could have a bad reaction to a whole pill. But take into account that X is really farking powerful mind drug (in my opinion), la la land can get real intense (in a good way). So for your first time, again depending on the strength of the pill (ask your friend who might have had it before), you should probably have a quarter to a half... depending on the strength.

You also get a tolerance built the more you use it. My mate took 7 over a period of 10 hours and said that afterwards all he got was a headache lol.
[edit]
I'd be more worried about the long term effects

Yeah, I'm doing it orally.
I won't be seeing a friend doing it since I will be the only one rolling the group :P My friends aren't into that but I will have 'sitters' and stoners who understand what i'm doing. I know that a lot of people say to have other people who are rolling with you but I can't find anyone else to do it with. Plus there aren't any raves where I live 
I could start off as 1/4th a pill, and then do another 1/4th after I feel the effects. Would this be a waste though?
anyways, I won't be doing more than half a pill. But I'm 10x more sensitive to everything than my friends.
and yes, I have done hours and hours of research. And these are the dangers I've come across.
