writes: I'm 25, still single and beyond lonely. I've never had a girlfriend and have never really dated for that matter. I have a college degree, am serving in the military (finishing my enlistment and getting out in a couple months), and have a good group of friends. I'm told that I'm good looking (I tend to agree), smart, funny, and all around a genuine guy. So what's wrong with me? What makes me unworthy of finding love?I'm the last single guy in my group of friends. Everyone else is either married or in a long term relationship. I feel like I've been left behind in the dust. Like I've somehow fallen through the cracks of life. I love hanging out with my friends, but I can only take so much of being around them and their significant others.At this point in my life I have little to no experience with women. I feel years behind where I should be. Kids in middle school have more experience than me. Does my inexperience somehow forbid me from finding that special someone?All the women that I meet are either not interested, already taken, or not looking for a relationship. I don't know what to think anymore. Any thoughts?

I'm 55 and I've never had a girlfriend due to unusual circumstances; I was an only child and lived with my Parents until they died.
I've noticed that never having a girlfriend is more common that I thought.
I've just set up a Yahoo discussion group called 'never had girlfriends' where men like us can get together, share our stories and experiences, and try to find solutions.

Things really do take time. I just turned 34 and finally found the person I love more than life itself. I dated on and off a few times but never really found or had that true experience.
Take your time and you do worry about things, it's a natural part of life, but it takes ONE special person to make you feel important and special to them too.
I'm hitting the 7 month mark and already have rings on the fingers. I just finally found it all at once!
Good luck and I can't say don't worry but it's easier said than done, so take it from me, hang with friends and maybe that friend will have a single friend and life lives happiily ever after!
