writes:Im a male, 19, never had a girlfriend and still and virgin. And now im depressed (well probably not really depressed, i just feel really low) and worried sick about it virtually all the time. I dont really know what it is thats making me worry, i just keep thinking one morning i'll wake up and find that im like 40 years old and still in the same situation. Im terrified it wont happen to me, or if it does i'll mess it up because of my lack of experience.I cant bear the thought that ive reahced the age of 19 with zero experience. Everyone around me has done it, and ARE doing it seemingly all the time. Even my sister, who is two years younger than me has a boyfriend. She laughs at me for this, and treats me like im some kind of idiot, or a child with no understanding of anything.I feel like such a loser. How could i have got to this stage in life and have not done it? Its not like im bad looking or socially awkward or something. People say to me all the time that im handsome with a good sense of humour and that it will happen to me soon. But will it? I cant help but feel if a did find a girl she would run a mile when she finds out that im a virgin. I mean ive had a couple of chances at it but ive not really gone for them. The girls in both those cases were great nd im sure i would have been really happy with them but i did nothing, and now im in the "just good friends" category with them. Maybe i have self confidence issues? I wasn't confident enough to ask them out or something? i dont know.Im sorry to type loads but i really need to get it out. I know its stupid and selfish to think this way but i cant help it. Anyway, just some opinions and advice would be great.

However, if you want to get laid, you got to be more aggressive and take more risks in finding, meeting, and talking to women. And if your sister is giving you grief about your virginity, then it speaks volumes about her so-called maturity (she is not as mature as she likes to think).

Dont put your self down because your still a virgin to me IM REALLY GLAD THAT YOU STILL ARE you not alone.Maybe the reason your still a virgin is because your waiting for the right person to give the one thing that is important to you. I know im waiting for the right guy to come along, and trust me when she finds out your a virgin she well not run a mile away she is gunna be happy and thankful that you want to lose the one thing you held on to for a really long time to her. To me i think sex is suppose to be special. DONT BEAT YOURSELF UP ABOUT IT OKAY ..trust me one day your gunna lose it to that one person you love and your going to feel good about your self that you lost it to the girl you loved not a random chick you meet at the bar or something.good luck

You're normal. Ask a few girls out, spend time with them and it will happen. Stop focussing on sex as a win and try and have a relationship.

 I'm a 19 year old virgin guy as well :)
Though mine is by choice (saving myself), I still have insecurities every once in awhile, much the same as yours. I know I'm handsome, I know I have charm, but I don't pursue a woman until I'm totally positive I want her and it will be good for my relationship with Christ, and that happens pretty rarely.
There are a lot of girls that are looking for a guy just like you. They want a nice guy not all wrapped up in previous sex scandals. And I know I am proud of the fact that I've never had sex. Honestly, everybody is right in saying it will happen sometime. Just live your life and don't worry about it, we are both still very young.

Everyday I wish I would have waited until I found that perfect person to give myself to. It is all more meaningful to share yourself with someone you love. If you have not found it yet, then be glad that you are a virgin.
