Why do I feel like such a failure for never having a girlfriend or sex at 26 years old?

Because at a biological and even at some social level, you did fail. To have a girlfriend or sex, you need to be attractive enough to someone and know what to say and how to act to get to that point. There's also an average age period where most people do it, to serve as a comparison baseline. It'll certainly make it harder to get started in this world because most people at our age don't want to be a teacher or will take the lack of experiences as a red flag. I'm making up a fake story to use as a background and trying to learn the basics of body language and such to hide this about myself.

Don't take it as an insult. I'm just like you but a year or two older, but I can tell the truth to myself. People who sugarcoat it usually don't have to deal with this issue.

The most honest opinion here

I believe it's normal to feel that way past a certain age sadly

Ehhh. I'm getting to 25 and never had a boyfriend either. I'm pretty and men stare at me all the time but that's about it. I guess I haven't put in any effort to get into a relationship. I've opened a couple of dating profiles back in the day and I'd get invites out to dinner all of the time. What held me back? My own insecurities. I feel as if I'm not enough. What does that mean? Until I work on that and get myself into a place where I feel comfortable with who I am... I can't be jumping into any type of relationships. I suggest you take s step back and think of possible reasons as to why you haven't gotten into a relationship and think of ways you can work on that. Most importantly... learn to live with your own presence first, love yourself first.

Because of both the standards of the world and possibly loneliness. I can relate some to you. I’ve had only one serious relationship I’m 18 and have never had sex. I want a boyfriend and don't necessarily want to be alone at this point in my life but I have standards and expectations. I have never been a sex toy and I never will. When I have sex it will be with someone I care about in a serious relationship not one of my flings I’ve had over the years. Things will work out for you too 26 is far from ancient and I believe everything will work out for everyone hang tight and you’ll find someone special one day or someone to prepare you for the one.
If you ever need someone to just listen message me.:)

Social media/pop culture. It leads you to believe that everyone is getting laid 24/7. Don't believe the hype.
