How much do guys care about past dating experiences?

I don't have much at all. When I lived in my own town before I moved to this city, it was hard to really meet anyone you didn't grow up with. The guys I grew up with either weren't interested in me, or I wasn't in them. I dated off and on, but nothing exciting. I dated a guy for a summer when I was 22. It wasn't serious and we both knew that, and we were okay with it. He wasn't even from the same country as me. He was down for the summer, so that's why it was just a summer fling. And then I moved to my current city. I figured this was finally my chance to get out and meet new guys. This was true the first six months I lived here, but then I started working at my current job which is shift work and six days a week. I date, but either I don't have time or the guy isn't okay with me working shift work. So basically I've only had two relationships, and I don't even count the one when I was 22 as one even if it was three months. I had one for a couple years in High School and then that one. And I feel so inadequate compared to other people my age. My one friend is the same age as me and she has had ten serious relationships. We're both 26. I'm just worried guys are going to be upset that I haven't slept around or haven't had much relationship experience. And I am a virgin. I wanted to sleep with the guy I dated that one summer so bad, but he wouldn't do it and he was a virgin too. He said he was waiting for the right girl, and since we weren't exactly serious he couldn't sleep with me. And I never wanted to lose my virginity in High School. I'm starting to think that was a big mistake now. If I'd known then that I would be a 26 year old virgin then maybe I would have. I don't want to lose it to a one night stand, but I'm terrified about what a guy is going to think when he finds out. I lie to people all the time about the virginity thing. But I don't want to lie to a future boyfriend. My friends think I sleep around, and so does my family.

  • And why does this matter?

    Being a 26 year old virgin isn't a bad thing.. it is the opposite of bad actually.

    My friend was a 28 year old virgin on her wedding day.

    She could be a model.. she is that beautiful.

    And I am a 21 year old virgin..

    The only guys that wouldn't like it are the ones that just want one thing.

    And the only reason why they wouldn't like it is because you aren't "experienced."

    And if they do like it.. they would want you to be another notch on their belt of women they have conquered.

    And if a "normal" guy doesn't like it then he obviously doesn't remember that he was a virgin at one point in his life.

    Don't worry.. you will find a real man that will love you for who you are.. and he will cherish your gift.

    And why would you lie?

    It is a beautiful thing in my eyes.

    The friends that I hang around.. say its beautiful.

    And my family is happy that I am.

    • really she was a virgin until 28?

    • Really Really

  • I see no reason why past dating experience would be a big deal and I suppose this is true for most guys. So what if you're a virgin? if you're in my country you'll be praised for it even lol... but a 26-year-old virgin is not uncommon

    Also why would you want people to perceive you as someone who sleep around? I don't think that's something to be proud of, makes you look cheap and easy. If anything it might scare anyone who's looking for a serious relationship.

    • Most people I know make fun of virgins. I only tell my friends and family I sleep around. Not potential guys.

    • And your potential guys will eventually become your boyfriend who interacts with your friends and family, who will tell him that you probably sleep around. No seriously, other people can go f*** themselves. People have different circumstances, not everyone is so eager to lose their virginity.. it's really none of their business anyway.

    • They make fun of virgins? They are STUPID!

  • Not having a lot of dating experience isn't going to matter much. They are not going to care about the virginity thing either. The only way a guy would turn away a 26 year old virgin is if he only wanted sex and thinks that since she's waited that long, he's not going to get to it.

    The guy you date and eventually have sex with will not care about this at all.

    • I just read your comment under the first guy. Wow, that's tragic.

  • Don't worry. It's not a big deal. Many people don't have that much experience... And why would some guy had a problem because you DIDN'T slept around... It's usually just the contrary... :)

  • I don't think its a big deal being a virgin but you might not want to tell your buddy tell later, if at all.

  • i just turned 25 and I'm a virgin, would that be a deal-breaker for you?

    • I'm a virgin, so no. I don't care if someone doesn't have experience. It would make me a hypocrite if I did.

    • nice great to know

  • They do to get a feel of the kind of girl you are
