Sometimes I’m afraid I’ll will stay this way forever. I don’t want to be a 30-year-old virgin.
Should I be ashamed of my situation?
yes, you should be ashamed if you did not establish a relationship at age 20. much more, ashamed upon the age of accountability. of course the relationship i'm talking about is the relationship with Jesus Christ (who is God Almighty, the body of the Godhead, that would make Jesus the Father). the longer you live without this vitl relationship, the more you will be ashamed about the past (if you were to get saved later on). but if you died without the precious blood of Jesus Christ applied to you upon your death, you'll die in your sins, go to hell, and then be brought up on the final judgment day (the great white throne judgment as we see in Revelation 20:11-15). look in God's bible (the King James Bible, not ANY of the modern bibles because they are wicked, they add, and subtract) in verse 12, where it says that the dead (they that died in their sins) will stand before God to be judged. do you think there will be shame there? yes! great shame. you'll be naked, speechless, why speechless? because all of your life will be laid out before the God and all they that open the books (i believe it will be King James Bible because we will be judged by the book according to John 12:48, further more i believe that the saints which is us true Christians will be the ones opening the books and judging). but if you were to get saved asap then the shame will be forever gone in the future. but i do not believe in child conversions (because chances are the child cannot perceive that he/she is a sinner that needs to come to God as the wicked, vile sinner that he/she is) this is easy believism where they teach there is no changed life. but we see that in John 3:3 and 2Corinthians 5:17, there IS a changed life, but God is the one that helps you change, but it's AFTER God saves you after you call upon God asking him to save you who is no good, and that out of a pure believing heart, we see this in Romans 10:8-13. but as concerning a worldly relationship (man with woman), no shame. we see in 1Corinthians 7:8-9, it's one of those things where w can agree o disagree. if one says i would like to mary, and another, i would like to stay single, the scriptures are ok with either or. but something like the Godhead (over the trinity), or the timing of the catching up of the body of Christ, or other essential doctrines, there is no agree to disagree, the scriptures spell out what must be and anything contrary wise would make God a liar therefore unacceptable. but again, to not have a secular relationship 9or even to be married), no shame
Preach on Mr. Preacher Man!
As a female there's no downsides unless you want casual sex in which case there might be a few guys who just dont have the patience but they want you exclusively for sex and nothing more.
Aside from that it's really only a good thing, men who want a relationship are not going to hope that someone was there first, it upsets people but that's the reality. As a virgin you are a far better prospect for a long term relationship in that respect.
I get shit for saying it but I simply treat women who I know not to be slutty better because I care about them more. Girls who sleep around are more disposable and guys only take them if they only think with their dicks.
That said I believe both people should be as innocent as possible hence why I've turned women down and want to wait for marriage. But being realistic there is a double standard because women are okay with men sleeping around and still respecting them, the same is not true for men. They will always lie and say they do but that's just to get sex.
No! You're only 20 not 40! Not even 50! What the hell's the rush? ! No seriously? ! You're not going to DIE just because you don't have anyone currently! Are you trying to RACE with other people? ! With your peers to say that you already have a relationship and are going to be married soon or engaged and blah blah blah? ! Do you really wanna be that IMMATURE? ! ! Think about it! A lot of people your age don't even have anyone! Their still in college trying to start their career or at least trying to get the college experience out of their way before they settle down with somebody and have children! That would be harder to go to college if you have children I heard! You'd need to get them to daycare or someone will have to take care of them. That's like going to work but you don't get paid and YOU pay them! The college that is! Anyway, seriously! What's the rush if you don't mind me asking! Also, I don't think it's correct for you to think that you will die a virgin or be a virgin for the rest of your life... Again you're only 20! How annoying! Seriously! Why do you think that you are now destined to be a virgin because you're an old hag at 20? ! Come on now think about it! ... Go meet guys at the mall, or at your school! Go online to find someone! Why are you resigned at such a young tender age? ! What gives? ! I didn't give up at 20 now did I feel resigned at your age! Actually far from it! What's the difference between you and me? ! !
And another thing, aren't you afraid of it hurting? ! ... Especially since you don't have any experience? ! Aren't you afraid of losing it to the wrong person! And then getting ATTATCHED to said person? ! ... I lost my v card at 28... and to be honest, it really wasn't the big of a deal but I also sort of regretted it! BUT be strong and think that your time will come! Just be patient!
No, there's no shame in that at all and please don't let anyone try to make you feel like there is.
I'm 24 and still a virgin, and I couldn't care less whether I'm still one when I'm 30. As far as I'm concerned, I will lose it when I feel ready and with someone I feel comfortable with, but not a day sooner or with anyone I don't. I personally feel that I would immensely regret having sex if I didn't feel ready or didn't feel that the person was the right one to do it with, and it's not worth me just being able to say I've had sex. What good does that do, anyway?
I think some people are just later bloomers than others (I know I am, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with this; in fact, I've found that being a late bloomer has allowed me to learn from others' mistakes before I encountered certain situations, rather than making them on my own). There is absolutely no rush to enter a relationship or lose your virginity, as those two things are things you do when you personally feel ready and feel completely comfortable with sharing with a certain person, and that's different for everyone. Don't let anyone pressure you into thinking there's a time limit or that any of this makes you "undesirable" or a "loser" (trust me, I've had some "friends" who tried to pressure me this way and it felt awful, especially when I was around your age, but I have absolutely no regrets in staying true to myself).

Why do you feel like you should be ashamed?
Nowadays it's easier to get laid. Especially if you're a female. So if that's not happening (and your goal is to get laid), then you're doing something wrong. Put yourself out there more and you'll see that no matter what you look like, guys will come flooding in.
But if your goal is to get laid and have a deep connection with the same person, that will take time depending on your standards and how many people you're being exposed to/interacting with.
No. I lost my virginity at 27. Had my first serious relationship at 27. Its not about the age. Its the quality.
No. Because if your ashamed to be a virgin that means you hate yourself. I am hearing my 30s and proud to be a virgin. If you don't want to wait much then find a man to marry and then have sex with the one you want to marry. Stop comparing yourself to other people because many that lost their virginities are either dead, knocked up with somebody kid, have a disease they don't know, finds out they have a disease from somebody cheating, gets cheated on often if not cheat more, is horny to no end if they lack control, can't get married to stay married or on they're way to divorce if not as sexually satisfied had they waited. And a good amount had poor 1st time experiences. It's a choice to be a virgin. There is more to life than sex or a relationship. And most people do not need to be in one anyway.
Right now I say you need counseling more than that.
Lol reading these comments from men asking “what your denying hot guys asking you out what’s wrong what’s going on” they just don’t understand what it’s like for good clean girls. I lost my virginity last year after protecting myself for so long. Don’t worry about it, a guy is going to be very very lucky to have you because, I know based off how I am, you probably think like me which means you will be super loyal when you do find the right one. All these other girls that lost their virginity at 14 -16 are on their 100th boyfriend and not worth a damn to a man looking for a women to eventually marry. Don’t worry about it your all good
... lol... I don´t think so, don´t be ashamed it´s up to you.. your decision not everybody else. And you should get some confidence and smile more, then the guys will flock to you like crows. That´s what i would say. And, if you like a guy smile at him, and maybe ask him out (if you know he is single... if not it´s a 50/50 shot...) Worst case that can happen (happened to me) was that the guy (girl) laughed went to a group (of her friends) and they all laughed together at me (i was still in the vicinity)...
20 years is young. If you actively search you will find a boyfriend in NO TIME at all.
You should find the other. Don´t worry about being a virgin, but use a condom and get the contraception pills (if you are allergic stop using them - see a doctor).
Ashamed of what? Don't live by the standards society weighs on our shoulders because you will never be happy.
Figure out what you want first. If it's a relationship you want, then work on yourself to be in one with the qualities you want with a partner.
You don't need to be in a relationship to lose your virginity... but the fear of waiting for a perfect partner could be holding you back from expressing yourself sexually.
So if it's just sex you want, then start meeting guys/girls you find attractive and interact more. Eventually you'll get more comfortable and naturally want to take things further.
But do yourself a favour and stop worrying. That energy is negative and alone holding you back from receiving what you need and want.
Just accept your situation and own it. You only get one life, don't waste it worrying about being ashamed and afraid of what may never happen.
Good luck.
There is an extremely high demand for 20 year old girl from guys from ages 20 to 40. Therefore, if you have never been in a relationship it is one of 3 reasons.
1. You avoid relationships.
2. You are a 1 or a 2. No guy wants a 1 or a 2, not even if they are a 1 or a 2 because, 1's and 2's are way too fat, ugly, unhealthy, and/or severely retarded.
3. You have unrealistic standards. For example he must be at least 6'3" (only 2% are that tall), must look like Colton Haynes, must earn at least $100,000 per year etc. And maybe 1 guy in 10,000 would meet those standards. You want a perfect 10 but you are not even a 7.
It's by choice so no (: that's fine there's NOTHING wrong w/ still being single & a virgin, it means you just haven't found anyone you've connected with on that level & felt mutually for. Don't settle for less & don't rush it nothing special about losing your virginity at ANY age just to "fit in" give it time there's a lot of desperate guys out their so just wait instead...
I'm 32, never had a relationship and am still a virgin. I don't feel ashamed about it because it's not anything I chose, it's just how things turned out for me. That's not to say I don't get sad about it or ever feel lonely because I do and I hope to change my circumstances in the near future. However, for now, this is how it is.
I dont think so, I am 23 and a virgin, I struggle with social anxiety, and would prefer to wait for a woman I care about rather than just some stranger. I dont care about marriage, but Id rather have feelings for the person, maybe that's just because I'm nervous though.
no ! for a real and long lasting relationship is best for older adults ! there is nothing wrong with being a virgin ! for it means that you are mature enough to control your own
body ! for older adults know what they do and do not want in the opposite sex ! including children too ! stay a virgin until your own your on your honeymoon with your spouse if your mature enough to that is
No reason to be ashamed!
You're judging yourself against very low standards. I wish more people were like you and were more discerning about who they have relationships with. You're a shining light in a world where it's way too common to hook up.
Just be true to yourself and don't do anything because of peer pressure, and you'll be more attractive to the kind of partner that you really find attractive.
nothing to be ashamed off. I'm about to turn 23 and never been in a relationship, but I am not a virgin. There's nothing wrong with you or me. I for one am not too keen on being with someone that I don't like, I know a lot of girls that date guys that they don't really like or stuff like that. Don't worry is going to happen. If you want to have sex it's not that difficult, but if you want to wait that's cool too, there's pros and cons on both sides. You are going to be ok.
There is nothing shameful about being a virgin.
There is nothing shameful about never being in a relationship.
Its common and normal. Be patient and become friends with a guy you like, then send him signals, hod his arm, his hand, hug him, things like that.
Nope I am 21 and haven't been with a girl. I'm okay with it, it is no big deal. If you rush and have sex now you will regret it. Dont be afraid of being a 30 year old virgin, if it takes you that long to find the right man who isn't using you it will be worth the wait.
Well I'm 22 and have never been in a relationship or had sex. I'm not ashamed of it. I'm trying to get out and meet new people, so I recommend you do the same. You may find someone doing that and you may not, but you will at least have fun and potentially make new friends.
Don't be little one. There is no rush. Just date and try to focus on having fun. Don't do that whole serious thing off the bat. Date a bunch of guys. Get good and socializing. Then you will be able to figure out how to get yourself in front of the guys you are really attracted to.
Take your time.
Not Ashamed, but if you haven't been in a Relationship (I'm Not talking Sex) by the time you're 35 you may have concerns I know I as a Psychologist would be concerned then. Many people will avoid Relationships until they finush their Education and/or get their Career underway, be free of distractions, drama, & continue figuring out who they are and what they in a Mate. But if by 35 you haven't had a least one longterm relationship there would be Psychological questions.
Hey, I'm 26 and never been in a relationship, I'm also still a virgin. I feel really ashamed about it too, like if anybody finds out then they will think there's something wrong with me, like I'm not worth anything.
I'm really scared I'll be like this forever too.
I guess I'm taking some reassurance in that things change so much year to year, we can't really predict what will happen. Just focus on you and try and become more outgoing might help. Obviously I'm in no position to give advice
Well my first relationship is at 22. My partner was glad and we were having fun with me being a idiot at sexual stuff.
Naively enough, we broke up soon after and she said that she is glad because i get to gain experience and this break up is the stepping stone from my future.
We depart away and I cry so much for such a long time after 2 years with her.
Is this by your choice,, or u just haven't been asked out.. Either Way ur cool , your bad ass.. And strong, I Think it's cool that made it to 20,, anyway I Think you will be fine. And Never Say that word again ,, Ashamed,,,, U Should Be Proud. And happy and probably. HORNY TO 😊 no. You will be ok
Not at all. I didn't have a serious relationship and was a virgin until a few weeks before I turned 20... What's another year or two?
I've only had three serious relationships since that time so I don't have a huge sexual resume but those relationships all later 3 or more years and sex was regular. Now I have a family, so it's not the end of the world.
You'll get there and when you do, I'm sure you'll make up for lost time.
20 is not unusual, especially if you have been focusing on school.
As to whether you will die a virgin, that depends on a lot more aspects about you, such as where you live, what your ethnicity is, what you do, what your attractiveness is, and how high your standards are.
Me too. Usually it is girls who judge you for it, but they do it because they project their own insecurities on you. They assume you can only be happy if you have someone and that aving someone validates your self worth. They do that because that is how they think. In reality not having someone doesn't mean anything. If anything, I could have settled for a guy a long time ago, but I just can't force myself to like someone or be with someone I don't have real feelings for.
Don't be ashamed. Nothing to feel shame for.
You need to figure out why. And proactively start making changes to bring about a change for you.
If you do nothing, you may end up wasting years (i was a 35yr old virgin, two years later i'm in a stable relationship with a child on the way)
Definitely not dear i am virgin too at the age of 27
I dont feel that
Its kind of rumour that our generation created dont know why..
Enjoy your life dear that you want to live dont trust on this kind of foolish thinking
You will met your guy with right time
So dont be worried enjoy your single life.. 😉
No, some people take a little bit more time and honestly that is a good thing. Haven't you ever heard of 16 and pregnant or 14 and pregnant. Sex at a young age is a sign of bad genes because breeding a thousand little dumbasses is the only way some people's genes can pass on.
Take your time. I got my first boyfriend when I was 20 too. But I lost by virginity when I was 18 to a random guy just because I was ashamed of it. Don't do that, I regret not being able to have my first time with my current boyfriend who was a virgin at age of 22 and lost it to me.
Time will come!
No don’t ever be ashamed. I was in your shoes at your age. I was abused assaulted every time I spoke to a girl for no reason. And yes I was a virgin till I was 28. I too never found anyone that I clicked with or took a liking too or had anything in common at all with. Now I found a girl where I have everything in common with and I’m happy in love and I’m 48 now. Never too late nor ever be ashamed ever.
Will it help? No. Then don't be.
I doubt somehow you're 'un-datable'.
Unless you're, I dunno: the mistress of Mordor, the daughter of Atilla the Hun, a Klingon or Margret Thatcher's evil twin.
Damn I wish someone had told me that when I was 16.
No not at all. That is nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone has their reasons for everything. Although people may make fun of you, it's really nothing serious or shameful.
Your a late bloomer.. so was I. You're probably an introvert too. You'll know when you're moment to blossom is.. because the person will make you want to open up to them. Maybe you need to step up your interactive mingling game.. just enough to get the "good" attention you've been waiting on. P. S. ... your normal ! 🙂
No, that’s perfectly fine, people move at their own pace and it is probably smart to worry about other things before you worry about settling down and I honestly think that most people would be better off waiting a bit longer before they get in relationships.
Be sooo very proud of yourself young lady! That is quite an accomplishment! Save your virginity as long as you can and if you do give it away, make sure it's to someone special who sees it as a great thing too! ❤️
Not at all just be careful who you let in. Don't rush things. Be yourself and don't worry what others think. Unless you work from home all day and never leave the house you will meet someone. Are you able to have long term friendships? Might ask a female or gay guy friend for help finding someone to date.
Its fine. Most people have not been in a good relationship by then either and probably wish they were spared that experience in the first place. Also dont care too much about what other people think, its easier that way.
Don't rush into something that will only lasts minutes and you regret like eternity. For you to be like that it means you set some standards, stick to them and just try to date here and there to learn one or two things about this crazy world. Dating doesn't necessarily mean sex. It's finding out if you are able to deal with your partner or not.
No you absolutely shouldn't.
Nothing wrong with being a virgin and when you'll loose your virginity you'll be happier and so will your man.
You are still young and at least you'll do it right I'm sure!!
no you shouldn't iv not been in a relationship fr 28 years. so i have been doing it since before you were born so dont be ashamed of that. not everyone can say they have standards if thats why your holding out?
Never be ashamed of something like that. Even though I've only been in 1, now ended, relationship, I fear that I will never find love again. But like I said, never be ashamed of it
Ashamed? Certainly not. In this case, shame is self destructive. You need to cultivate positivity and self value.
But the question is, what is holding you back from having a relationship?
Definitely not especially with today's men a lot of them will treat you right and make you feel special just for sex then leave you later you need to be cautious about getting into relationships now because they can say one thing then mean the exact opposite
Not at all! You are not the sum of your relationships alone. If that were true then all folks in relationships would be super happy and never cheat, which let's face it, is wishful thinking. By being single you have the opportunity to be a better version of you everyday and someday someone will come into your life who looks at your better version and feels, you are the best version of their soulmate.
Well I'm 26 year old Virgin who hasn't been in a relationship yet. I don't think there is anything to be ashamed of in this. While i sometimes crave being with someone, most of the times i feel my freedom is more important. So unless you find someone with same energy, it's okay to be patient. Since it's better to be alone than feeling stuck being with someone.
No you shouldn’t be I’m 25 years old and I’m still struggling with relationships to but it don’t mean you should be ashamed of yourself though
My first relationship was at 22 and it was a disaster. Take your time, no one needs to be in a relationship until they are emotionally ready
Don't be. I'm 21 and the last relationship I was in was a disaster. Haven't dated anyone since. It's been a couple years in fact. Just try to put yourself out there. Maybe you'll catch someone's eye. :)
Don't be ashamed you have done nothing wrong. When you meet someone worth it you won't have to worry about it anymore. Sex has a way of complicating things some time in a good way sometimes bad don't feel the need to rush into anything
20 is still young. no shame in that. I rather still be a virgin than forced before im ready which unfortunately happened
I'm in the same boat as you. There's no reason to be ashamed.
You are still young and plenty of guys would date you (if you are charming)
No you shouldn't
Being in a relationship is overrated and there's nothing wrong with being a single
Plus 20 is still very young
Ignore all the incels here and just keep doing you and the right person will come along some day xx
It just means you haven't found the right person to share it with. It doesn't make you weird or unusual. You'll meet someone when you're ready. 😘
I think I'd rather be in your situation sometimes than mine
Are you fibbing again? They must have twenty or more 18-24 pink anons on here because the stories change every day.
No, there is nothing to be ashamed of. I am 32 and I have always been single and a virgin as well and I am proud of it.
I'm in the same situation. I'm 19, I've never had a relationship and I too am still a virgin. I know I'm a bit younger than you but I don't think you should feel ashamed. If you're ready you're ready. If you're not you're not. I'm not.
I'm 25 and in the same boat. No need to be ashamed. The right person will come into your life when you least expect it. When it happens, it will have been worth the wait!
🤔 You either want to or you don’t. Why does shame have anything to do with it?
Not shameful at all.. I'm 24 and in that situation so I understand why. Enter relationship when yiu a ready only
Oh hell no. You are still young. You just haven't met anyone who really interest you. Relax it will happen
