Pay no attention to the person that said pain is normal when taking out a tampon! When done correctly and the rules are followed, there will be NO pain whatsoever and you will begin to really enjoy them, unlike pads, a constant reminder that your on your period :(
For starters, I'm sorry you don't have a mom to discuss things like this with.
Ok so here we go...lol. If your period is SUPER light then I wouldn't use a tampon until it got a lil' bit heavier. (In this case it's good to have some light day pads.
Taking out a tampon before it's time can hurt a little and that would be your fault. A tampon is designed to soak up the blood. If you pull it out way to early then it's to dry and will cause friction, which is quite possibly the pain your feeling.
Tips:
~*Lubricating the rounded end of the tampon with a water-based lubricant such as K-Y Jelly can make insertion easier the first few times. Don't use petroleum jelly.
~*If the tampon feels uncomfortable it is probably not inserted far enough into your vagina. Try again with a new tampon.

If the tampon is not yet out, don't worry about it. There's no other way for it to come out, so it will eventually fall out with a little gentle tugging.
As to the pain... it is normal. It hurts MUCH more if you haven't had your period for a long time. (Like less than 5 years.) I recommend only wearing a tampon when you really have to, like while going swimming or if you're uncomfortable while playing sports. Wear a heavy pad during the day and light pad at night otherwise. It prevents TSS, a disease you can get from wearing too heavy tampons for too long.

yeah taking it out... it's normal to be in pain. sometimes its because it's not used enough (if it's dry it'll definatly hurt). also relax your muscles when you take it out and pull it kinda forward towards your front side. that should help a little.. <3
edit: no the strings don't break.. they're usually sewn in really raf back so it's almost impossible. just hang in there, you'll get the hang of it!
