I feel pretty much the same way, though I'm 25 now. I've even been turned down solely for being a virgin. Most of the people I know are married or in long-term relationships, and I'm just the "child" who will never have any of that.

Even if I were to get in that situation, it's too humiliating to have someone see me naked or have to explain that I have no idea what to do. To have to have them tell me step by step when they could literally find anyone else that could have sex with them without the instruction manual.

And relationships aren't about love anymore…it's all about sex, sex, SEX.

Sorry, it's probably not helpful to hear from someone so cynical, but if you read anything else on the forums, the need of the vast majority of guys to have sex outweighs how we feel…

Maybe the right guy will wait, but how dare we deprive him of SEX. How selfish of us. Alright, I'm being very sarcastic, but in reality that's how most guys think nowadays it seems. They buy us dinner, how dare we not put out. They don't care if we're not comfortable with it. That's why there's so much pressure and why there's that nervousness in the back of each of our minds about being pushed into doing things too quickly.
