I agree pretty much with BDPpartner. There's nothing intrinsically special about being a virgin.
All it means is that you haven't had sex yet. You will still be pretty "virginal" the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, time you have sex. Sorry, but there's nothing magical about it except to the individual. If you think it's special then it is...to you.
But... if you don't even like the person then be prepared to feel some emptiness afterward.
Follow your heart.
