A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

How late is too late for guys to enter the dating game and start experiencing relationships.

20? 23? 25? 30?

I mean, to really just START! Never been on a date before, never had sex, maybe never even kissed a girl.

This could all be due to many combination of reasons. Shyness, being busy with school and work, whatever.

The reason I ask is nowadays it seems that 15 and 16 are the norm for males to start dating, having sex, and experiencing relationships.

What about us older guys, I don't mean old, but like 23 year olds for example. Is it too late to start? Do girls go for the guys with more experience because they feel safer in the sense that their partner knows what they are doing, or can they 'pick up' girls easier and smoother?

22+ is when people start experiencing real relationships. My best friend found a guy who was 26 and never had a real girlfriend,, and they are very happy together. just go on dates and shop around til the right one comes around. never try to force anything.

Yes, girls like guys with more experience. This is for quite a few reasons. But No, its not to late to start dateing. I didn't start till I was 18, yes its a little harder but its a learn as you go thing, the only way you can get better at it/ get experience is to get out there and do it. I say you should just get out there and try, have fun, and try different things.

I say you should go for it! 23 is nothing.

no_issues agony auntThere is never a good age for "experiencing relationships." That is what happens when you watch a TV movie in which two actors pretend to be people going out on a date, when you're at home alone with nothing but last night's leftover lasagna in the fridge. It's cold and passive and limp, like a dead fish wrapped in a newspaper.

Instead ask yourself how late is too late for erotic pleasures, love affairs with beautiful women, wild romance, and driving too fast with the convertible top down.

You will find that it is never too late for any of those things -- but they don't just happen.

It doesnt really matter on the age. Some girls prefer less experiened guys and some girls prefer more experienced guys, it's never too late to start, you could be 50 and have your 1st ever realtionship and fall inlove then, what does it matter how old you are?
