I'm 26 turning 27 this year and I've never had a girlfriend, Is it too late to get one at this point? Should I just give up hope of ever finding love?

As the title suggests, I am a 26-year-old guy who is turning 27 this year (June 2nd) and I never had a girlfriend I've also never been on a date or had my first kiss and this all stems from being socially awkward-shy for as long as I can remember. I'm at a stage now where I would like this to change, but if I'm realistic it's very difficult to see how this will happen.

I feel at the age I'm at now no woman would want anything to do with me once they find out how inexperienced I am when it comes to dating and relationships, they would more than likely run for the hills because no woman wants to be with a guy where they have to be there first everything. I literally have no ex's and no past love stories to share.

It's starting to make me feel depressed knowing that I'll most likely die alone never experiencing what it's like to be in a relationship and It doesn't help that everyone around me seems to be getting in and out of relationships and or are currently in one. Everyone in my family that's old enough to date has and here I am 26 turning 27 (3 years away from being 30) and never even so much as had my first kiss.

I work retail at a grocery store and even when I go to work I see couples left and right, even a few of my coworkers are dating each other. It's starting to make give up hope and just face facts it'll never happen.

Is it too late for me to ever find one? Should I just give up ever finding love and put my time and effort into something else?
