 One breast being larger than the other is normal. It has nothing to do with sexual involvement. (If sexual stimulation made breasts larger then most women would have breasts so large they would wind up being unable to move due to the excessive size of their breasts!)
The pain in the breasts for a few days each month is most probably due to hormonal shift due to menstruation. This too is common and normal but you don't need to suffer. Speak to your doctor about this for specific instructions and guidance based on your specific health needs.
You sound pretty normal to me!

 A variation of up to a cup size is normal. Pain is normal with hormonal changes, so if it comes at the same time every month, I wouldn't worry about it. If it's random or extremely painful, you might want to have it checked.

 It's normal. It's not infrequent that one breast is bigger than the other.
The monthly breast pain is linked to the hormonal variations in your cycle. A few days before the period , some women's breasts swell ( even a lot, like having to wear a different bra size ) and are tender and achy.

 It is normal. No woman has breasts of the exact same size. In some the variation is bigger than in others, but having one breast bigger is completely normal. It is not caused by anything, it is just the way we are born.
Your breasts are probably hurting because of the menstrual cycle. Most women experience this, some more than others. If it happens every month for 4-5 days then it is surely because of your menstrual cycle. Breasts can swell and be extra sensitive, or get sore, during this time. It doesn't have to happen extra when you have your period. In my case, the swelling and extra sensitivity/pain usually takes place right before I get my period.
