Never had a boyfriend or slept with anyone. I don’t want to but I feel guilty like I don’t fit in and that I’m missing out. why do I feel so ashamed?

[Anonymous]

I’m not very social and I’m happy alone until someone reminds me that I’m weird for feeling this way and I have FOMO, even though when I go out with friends or date I don’t feel that great

Why do I feel ashamed even though I truly have no desire for sex or a boyfriend? I don’t crave love at all but I feel like to fit in I need a boyfriend so I feel ashamed for not having one

How can I stop feeling ashamed?

Honestly the pressure I feel to conform makes me feel depressed or worse

You shouldn't feel that way, you should just do what you want and makes you happy.
I'm the same, except I want a girlfriend. And I'm ok the most part, but then mates remind me and then I get sad.
If you want to be alone and don't care about the drama and stuff, then don't feel ashamed because it's what you want to do!

Who cares what other people think. Do what makes you happy

I just feel inadequate
thanks for the comment

[Zolly99999]

Well you shouldn't. If you don't want to date or see then you shouldn't feel pressured or bad about it

You can join a monastery. :)

Maybe you’re asexual.
