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

Is there something wrong with me if I'm a virgin? I must be inept with women?

I'm 22 and everyone around me at uni seems to be getting into a relationships, or having tonnes of one night stands and talking about their exploits whilst all I have to go on is one night where it almost happened but too much alcohol prevented me from doing so.

I've tried everything to boost my confidence when around women and people in the last 2 years. Whilst my confidence has gone up in that I am doing better in my course (engineering), more sociable and outgoing, and even becoming chair of one of the main sports teams at uni. However my attempts to get together with a woman have been terrible. I've asked out a few girls without worrying about rejection but none seem interested. I am getting depressed and starting to feel like a failure because everyone else can do something that I can't which is being close to another woman. Btw I know I'm straight before you ask

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (18 April 2010):

I think it's a case of really getting to know women before you ask them out. It's possible you're not getting to know them, so maybe they think you're just interested in sex. I used to get turned down by every girl I ever asked out, but it changed when I stepped back and really got to know women before asking them out. So instead of looking for a girlfriend, look to get to know girls initially, and work out how they think and what they're looking for. Then you'll meet the right one.
