I read a lot about people being a virgin at 25 and getting totally desperate about it. Now I'm "only" 19, but I've never even had something close to a relationship, and I don't care. I notice that friends and family try to "casually" ask me if guy XY is my boyfriend.. like "what the hell is wrong with you, why are you still alone". To be honest I could never understand why people make such a big deal of love and relationships. Maybe because I think and act too "logically" and therefore think that true, unconditional love doesn't exist and every relationship will at some point end in indifference or even hate. So it's like I don't even bother. I honestly don't feel like I want a boyfriend. If I met someone I'm really attracted to, fine, maybe I'd give it a try. But I'm not searching and I certainly don't feel bad for being single. IMO there are so many more important things, like hobbies and dreams. And even if, one day, I had a relationship, I guess I would pretty quickly scare him away. I'd need looots of freedom, I would be almost incapable of actually showing affection and I'd get annoyed at any attempts of romance. Maybe I'd be better off in some kind of an open relationship, or a "friends with benefits" thing.

You are right, there nothing wrong with being single. However if your a male people will think you are a loser, a creep, a wimp. Then you get the ''oddball'' dateless man like me, who is happy and has confidence in myself. Really don't care about what people think about me. Then again you are single by choice. It's not like people don't brag about female virgins. It might be better than for men, but people will assume there's something wrong with you anyway. Are female virgins as rare as males paint them to be? I remember reading stats once. 1.6% of men have never had sex. but only 0.3% of women never had sex (i assume it only counted heterosexual people) In regards to attempting to find a lifelong companion who is a virgin though... not that I would ever use virginity as a requirement when considering a women, but because of my religious upbringing it would be preferred. But again I would never think of a woman as a lesser being for not being a virgin nor would it be a dealbreaker. Love transcends all barriers. _________________ I'm a minor player in my own life story. Back to top
