Everyone’s romantic journey is different! I think media constantly protrays these events to happen during high school and we think that if it didn’t happen to us then too that there’s something wrong with us, when in reality that’s not the case. I personally didn’t get into all that until my 20s! We can’t change the choices and outcomes of the past, so all we can do it accept that high school didn’t involve it and look forward to the future 🙂

It’s not stupid at all. No need to feel guilty. It’s normal to wish to have that experience everyone else has. I get it. You can feel really lonely and left behind when compared to your peers. Best thing I can tell you is to remember that you’re on your own path. It’s okay if you didn’t get to have those experiences. It doesn’t make you any less than. You’re just taking a different path. It’s okay.

Nothing is stupid about not having any romance or Intimacy with anyone. I'm 19 and I'm still a virgin. For some odd reason society makes that an oddity when it's really not. Back when I was in high school, I had stupid flings online with girls that were around my age. I sexted with them, exchanged pictures, roleplayed, etc. To be honest I regret all of those times because not only did they not get me anywhere, but I can't take any of it back. I haven't had a girlfriend yet, and to be honest I really don't care for any of that right now. You go for these things whenever you feel ready. Comparing yourself for others is a setup for failure because you're you. it doesn't help to do such a thing. Go at your own pace. Besides, there's so much more to life than just sex.

"am I disgusting?" (24,f) OK, what I'm about to tell you might be a false memory because I don't remember much details on this and ofc I'm assuming the worse. Over a year ago (prior to april 2019), I used to have both sexual and Romantic fantasies with made up people. Unfortunately, I was already over 20 (21-22) and remember a fantasy about me being 16-17 again (basically still in HS) in a all-boys team of baseball. Why? I love baseball and such thing is not available in my country. 2. I love hanging with guys... They are so sweet to me and I usually get along with them. I'm gay... Ish. And I remember also putting another girl on the team, I think... But I don't remember what "story" I gave her and what age, nor her face, nor personality!! I can't be certain but I feel like I created aome romantic attraction between us and I'm not sure.. Today, I feel super anxious about it... Like "what if she was too young?" or "what if I put us dating?" I truly don't remember. I'm not even sure she existed. I have the slight memory she appeared in that fantasy a couple of times but I can't recall anything at all. I know this is silly but oh boy... I feel awful...

Does anyone else who’s 20+ and never seriously dated before afraid that this messed up your love life forever? Because I used to look forward to getting to know a guy romantically one day and feeling comfortable enough to let them be around me in that way and now I’m just afraid that if I ever get into a relationship I’m not going to like it and it’s just gonna confirm everything I’m afraid of :/

Only girls reply please 😁 just feel better that way So basically I’m feeling quite insecure for still being a virgin at 17 and I keep telling myself to not be so upset by what society expects of me but I literally can’t help it. Apart from a dumb relationship when I was 14, and a few pecks with boys when playing spin the bottle these last few years, I’m never been intimate with a guy. And it just makes me feel really shit about myself. I KNOW it shouldn’t matter at all but I can’t shake it off. And beyond this, I’m also worried I’ll use a guy one day just to gain experience and that’s a horrible thing to do. I always sorta told myself that before university, I’d go abroad with friends and just go wild, but if it’s all because I’m insecure, then that’s not fair on any of the guys I’d be with. At all. So what am I meant to do? At this point, I just wanna lose it and move forwards, or become more confident!! Losing it would make me feel good (but guilty because I fear I’d be using the person) yet confidence is such a long journey.
