Bottom line in my view is that virginity is over-rated in this society.
You have every right to be particular and choosy in finding a partner. A life-long partner is a major choice to make, and it must be done with care.
On the other hand, it is possible to set the standards too high, considering the social structure in which we live. When I read about 29 year old virgin women, I get reminded that my standards were and are set too high. That's why I'm single, never married, have no children to entertain me (and vice versa,) and care for me in my dotage. Then again, who knows what could or would have happened were the situation different.
In the long run, we all must make decisions, and those decisions are almost always driven by what we perceive as furthering our well-being. Along with that comes the need to be open to change if change is needed.
I've heard and read that soulmates do not exist in the real world. To some degree, that is true. No two people are 100% compatible in the long run. We all grow, change, and our relationships either grow together or they grow apart. Nothing is static.
The best advice I could give, were I consulted, which I was not, is to examine your values, your hopes and your dreams, and be open to modifying those that do not work in your favor.
Best of success in living your life to the best of your ability.00 Reply

+1 yif thats what you want i think its cool. if not i think that you should slowly get into it. sex really is great and is needed for your brain to grow fully, altho if you saving it is part of your sexual identity so it could work but id recommend developing that into more of a hopeful maybe this is the one in your fantasies so that you can find that soul mate. the gamble of is this person the one for me is part of what makes sex so exciting and invigorating. people who fuck a lot start to think theyre cooler than they are when they have a bunch of people drawn to different things saying that they are, but if they keep themselves in check theyre good. tbh sometimes im jealous when i hear about people who have kept it because I've always been super cringe trying to get laid and it just ruins your reputation & kinda gets to ur soul and it dont feel great. also its like losing my virginity really didn't get me much more than a heart break, and another crazy girl who knew the first one. like im in a dry spell rn and it feels the same as when i was a virgin. i promise someone is gonna wanna take your virginity at any age so if you're worried dont. but i dont regret losing it or being with any of the trainwrecks i was in 🥰 do what feels right, but dont get caught in the prince charming trap. he never comes, life is unexpected! love is unplanned

+1 yA good male friend of mine is your age and a virgin. He’s never wanted to just hook up with people, even though he is quite attractive. He’s super happy. I always say, if you want to be a virgin and haven’t found the right reason to have sex, then don’t have it.
Similarly if you want to ditch the V card, get rid of it however you see fit.
In any case, your virginity status does not define you as a person to me.20 Reply
+1 yTotally fine, nothing wrong with it.
If your waiting until marriage what are you doing to find him?
Don't sit around waiting for it to just happen, that won't work. Also don't try to find a perfect match, even if you do find someone that is perfect for you. You won't be perfect for him, try to find someone that is decent though.00 Reply

Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yI think you are a victim of religious dogma.
If it was going to happen it would have happened by now.
The fact of the matter is that religion is bullshit, you only get one life, there is nothing coming later on, no reward, no paradise just a slow decline into black.
So you should really spend some time considering whether or not these ideas you have been following are actually serving your interests.
It is highly likely that you will still be in this situation when you are 40, if it was going to happen it would have happened by now, now obviously you could still meet someone and have your fairy tale but the perfect is the enemy of the good.
Right now you are rejecting a good life in the hope that you will have a perfect one but even if you do get that one day, for how long and will it have been worth it?
Only you can make these choices, you are the one who pays the cost.
If there wasn't a God and its important to understand that there isn't a single shred of evidence to support the claim that there is would you still be making the choices that you have been making?00 ReplyI’ll help you rephrase your question.
How do you feel about a women who doesn’t open her legs for any guy and who seems to have some patience, modesty, and self-respect?
Hopefully that rephrase answers your question.31 ReplyIf she isn't marriage minded I wonder wtf is she doing. Wasting your life and time. If you're not married or trying to be. Not having relationships. Not having a dating life. Not even hooking up and on the edge of 30 you are wasting your youth
We're only young once00 ReplyI am a guy and I am still searching, you can search for guys on dating sites or apps, but you have to be carefu, because some guys will only take advantage of you. When you find one take time to study his character so that you will not get hurt.

+1 yWho cares, it's just sex... what happens in your bedroom is your business same as what happens in somebody else's is theirs alone.
I would add that despite you are perfectly comfortable with your own body and the pleasures it can offer, but that is not any of my business really either.
