I’m almost 30 and have never dated, how hard is it gonna be for me?

So technically I’m about to turn 29, but close enough. But I’ve never had a girlfriend or dated (I’ve only been on 1 date 7 years ago) I’m not a virgin because me and the girl I went out with on that one date a long time ago hooked up at the end of the night, but I haven’t had sex at all since then. I just have a feeling that at this point, its gonna be really hard for me to date or get into a relationship because of the fact that I have so little experience at such a late age. I feel like its gonna be a repeating cycle of going out on dates (if I can even get any in the first place) only to be rejected once a girl finds out how inexperienced I am. And I doubt any girls in my age group want or are expecting to be a guy’s first girlfriend.

Yeah its gonna be harder for you

No it won’t be any harder

Dating is forced and unnatural. You should try meeting more organically. But this what you mention will be as a big a problem as you make it. But ultimately the real issue would be your focus on dating and getting a girlfriend if you don't know your life purpose and aren't pursuing that with the same vigor.

It may be a little harder, but nothing to worry about.
