Am I behind for not having a boyfriend yet?

[Anonymous]

I'm a 25 year old female and I've never been in a relationship before however, I had other experiences such as kissing and sexual experiences with one guy my whole life. Never been on a date ever. I also spoke to a guy but was long distance for 3 years never met tho. I haven't focused on it that much because of my weight and I'm self conscious about it. Am I behind?

As a guy I'm in the same boat and for me the answer is probably yes but since you're still 25 and a woman if you lose the extra weight and put yourself out there you shouldn't have too much trouble finding a suitor. You've still got time. Woman don't really need to start worrying until they're at least in their mid-thirties. If you're still single as a woman than maybe you should be concerned. Right now, though you're fine just put in some work and keep trying.

“Behind” implies you’re in a race against someone.
You’re not.


Everyone moves at their own pace.


My last girlfriend was a virgin at 29 barely ever pecked a guy on the lips


When we met she knew it was her time and I went on to be her “first everything” (including heartbreak unfortunately)


Just keep a positive outlook on life and take it on with an open mind.
You’ll get there when you get there

No people go at their own time which is fine maybe try a dating app I find it easier to meet people and talk to them

Little bit, but your also in your prime right now so plenty of oppertunity. Nows a good time to be actively dating and looking.

I figured lol, people usually start dating in HS or early 20s didn't want to pressure myself but sometimes that feeling creeps up on me and its a sucky feeling.

Ideally you want to have a partner for life before your 30, the earier the better because right now you have all the options. 25 is a great age since you can attract guys/men between a large range. The guys who don't mind dating a few years older but also the men in their early 30's are all attracted to that age so you have the widest dating pool right now. Later on it will become slimmer since your going to loose the large 20's crowd.

I’d say yes somewhat. Not impossible to find someone. But I will say at your age you’re getting closer to 30 then to 18. A lot of men like younger women. So that’s another thing that may lessen your chances even more w the weight

Hmm, don't worry about other people. If you are comfortable with the pace you are going then fine. If you want more experience, then go for it.

My body image is what prevented me from meeting anyone in person. I didn't want to feel judged but at the same time I get that everyone has their preferences.

[StevenMcGarrett]

Have you tried a bbw dating website?

[Asker]

No I don't want to be ''big'' my whole life lol

[StevenMcGarrett]

Oh, well are you losing weight now?

[PaleDale]

It's never to late, if it takes time to find the right someone than it's worth the wait.

Everything happens in its own time. No reason to worry!

[RageBabe]

Nope.
