I was in a similar situation a few years ago. I had profiles on several dating websites. When I met and married my husband I was 36. Before that I had only been "socially active" for about 6 months, and not much of that was physical.

The biggest difference is that I'm female. Most of the guys I met assumed I had experience - and a few didn't care one way or another. Once they knew I was a virgin and wanted to stay that way until my wedding night, they stopped communicating with me.

One thing I would like to tell you from the other side of a relationship like you are looking for - make sure she know early on. The longest "relationship" I had was with a man who could not have a romantic relationship with anyone becuase of his (unresolved - but I'm not going into that) issues. We conversed via e-mail, then phone calls and letters, and a few visits before I moved to where he lived and found out the truth. For a while I was devistated after our break-up. One of my issues is low self-esteem so of course I thought I wasn't pretty enough or good enough in general for him. It took me a while - and a lot of tears - before I realized that it really was him and his unresolved issues. That's when I became "socially active" and looking back, I put myself into some pretty dangerous situations.

Make sure the website you use to find someone meets your needs. I was on some that anyone could be on, found the person I talked about earlier on one that had a spiritual angle so I thought was a good one, but ended up finding my husband on one for people like me. He knew something about me just because I was on that site, and he was looking for someone like that. Kind of cryptic I know. If you want more info I'd be happy to answer questions in a PM.

Hope you find someone who you are looking for, who loves you for who you are.
Thanks for this!
