I had my first date at 28 and my first kiss at 29 (different guy). Things happen at different times for different people.
I am glad to know I am not the only late bloomer around! It makes me feel bad sometimes like I am unwanted. I guess I just wonder why it hasn't happened yet but I hope it will one day ❤
I didn’t have my first kiss till I was 21. Honestly wish I would’ve waited longer just cuz I felt like my 1st kiss was wasted on a girl I wasn’t actually very fond of but I was kind of tired of being alone.
That's what I am afraid will happen :( I don't want to be desperate. I hopr I can find the right person
@Anyonomous It’s not bad dating someone just to date someone sometimes. If you meet a guy you’re attracted to who can make you laugh hopefully he won’t be a dumbass and ask you out or you could be like the the girl that gave me my first kiss and ask a guy out who hints at maybe liking you but is too nervous to ask you out. Sometimes you just need to get it out your system to get over your obsession with dating and meeting the right one at first.
I’m 19 and it kinda sucks because I feel behind, but at the end of the day I’d rather take my time and wait for someone who will treat me right then rush into the college hookup culture. It’s lonely, but I feel that once I find someone it’ll be worth it!
Me too. I have only been 20 for a couple months now and I honestly cried the whole week before because I felt anxious that I had never dated anyone my whole teen years. I am shy so meeting friends or potential boyfriends is really hard for me. Not to mention OCD. I am a Christian as well and so hookup culture is also something I am not interested in. It seems like I will never find a good guy who I am compatible with but I will keep holding out. I get the feeling of being behind too. I haven't worked yet either and I am trying to get a job this summer so I can at least check that off the list but I honestly am scared about that too. I hope one day we can find people who make us happy 🙂
My first relationship and kiss were at age 23. There’s nothing wrong with you! You will meet the right person at the right time!
Thank you :) I keep assuming I am too ugly, shy, boring, etc. and it honestly is rough because I feel unwanted but hopefully it will happen in time
I wish I had waited honestly. So take your time. It’s going to worth it when you find the right one.
I wish i had never had any relationship in my life. I've been in 3 so far and in every single one i was abused. It's better late with a right person than be like me👀
I am so sorry about that. That must have been hard. I guess it is best to wait. I hope you can also meet someone who makes you happy :)
I didn’t have my first kiss until right after I turned 20 and first relationship that I count when I was 21! There’s no number to follow! When it happens it happens
I am glad I am not alone! I guess my problem is I have no idea how to even meet somebody. I am in college but pretty shy and its summer so thats not an option right now. How were you able to meet people (if I may ask of course!)? I am trying to be content with my singleness and know that everyone moves at their own pace I just feel like it may never happen
@Anyonomous Well both of my ex’s were my best friends for years first and I always had crushes on them but never thought they liked me lol. But don’t recommend that bc now both my guy best friends are gone. But in college is the perfect time! Join clubs that you like, go to any and all events, if you believe in God go to church, study with guys/ or girls (I don’t remember your gender or orientation) outside of class, eat in public places etc! Being content with singleness is so hard, I’m struggling with this currently on top of not being with my ex anymore which is incredibly difficult... you’re never alone
@Justmesadly Thank you! And that totally makes sense with the guys friends! I guess I feel like I wasted my first two years of college not being super social. I am in drama club and was also in the play at my school which was really fun but only a few guys were there. I do believe in God and I am in a church with my family but it has no one my age so I am thinking maybe I will try another church with more people my age. I just am so scared I won't date anyone in the next year bc I think I am graduating a year early and if that happens I may never met anyone but I am trying to stay hopeful 😌
@Anyonomous Just let it happen when it happens then. I promise it’s not a rush ! Try not to stress
