Believe it or not, guys can have their V cards at late ages based on the (lack of) selection here. I am not sure how liberal they are over in france regarding their sex, but in america we are quite conservative, to a fault. I have friends in their mid 20s and early 30s who still are virgins, but are not gay. They just don't have the social acumen to get girls. Its more common than people think as everyone lies...
Gay people exhibit signs usually before admitting they are. Some even have a string of girlfriends before. older virgins are classified as being frustrated, which this poster is. I sincerely doubt he is gay.
You know what the difference is between a guy who is a virgin and a guy who's slept with 500 girls? Nothing. Nothing at all. Does having sex change your behavior? Nope. Does it make you more confident? Nope. Does it make talking to women easier? Nope.
Disagree very much so on this. The difference between a pretender and a player are VERY much different. One has swagger, and one is frustrated. You can always tell the guys who aren't getting any from the ones who are. Its reflected in their personalities. Confidence plays a huge role too. When I have a good streak, I am confident and laid back as hell, but when I am on a cold streak...its a different mindset. When you are getting some , you can talk to other women because you just don't care as much. When you aren't you place a whole heck of a lot more into that conversation.
To the OP: the bottom line is you are 22 and still have your V card. Clearly you are not on the normal spectrum on these matters. Don't worry, its not the end of the world. I was in a similar situation and turned it all around and so can you. Unfortunately for guys like us, we have to be more diligent in our work. You'll have to improve your social abilities, deal with rejection, and keep your head up. It could take months, it could take another year. You have to be prepared to do the leg work. Learn from mistakes, observe what works for other people. Most importantly, get in shape and keep trying to improve. As someone who didn't lose their V card until college, what I outlined is what worked...period. The change has to some from you, and you have to be dead ****ing honest with yourself if you want to see real change.
I'm not desperate to lose it, it's not something that has ever really affected me. I would just hate to get into a situation where I am with a girl and I tell her that I am virgin and she passes out from sheer shock.
One night stands don't really appeal to me.
Yup, thats why you posted it on a msg board. You are desperate to lose it. (this goes to the being honest part). You can't fool me, let alone yourself. The last two sentences are virgin talk. How the hell do you know what a one night stand is if you never done one?
