I'm 36. I'm a virgin. I've never kissed. I'm trying to find a reason to keep going. Help me out

Sit in a room alone for 2 days with nothing ( no food, no water, no porn, no book, no internet etc..)

Find purpose within yourself

Write down everything you come up with

If I want to kill myself there are easier ways than dehydration…

prostitution exists.

Same here user. I check all of the boxes except for an average face. 6'2", white, brown hair, green eyes, six figure income, outright own my house and car, multiple ~10 acre lots in the middle of nowhere to retreat to on the weekends. Women aren't interested unless they know I have money.

It's your choice, it only works when you have nothing, done it before. You wont have to worry about dehydration as long as you aren't in the middle of the dessert, its only 2 days

I know… it’s illegal here in murrica, but regardless I’m much more interested in a relationship than fucking a hooker
It’s crazy user.. women won’t settle for anything less than mr perfect, and because of their pickiness we end up alone and they end up with a house full of cats

What did you figure out when you tried it?

Take joy in knowing you've never wasted time, energy, affection and money on women. It's extremely unlikely you find the perfect woman right off the bat. You have to go through lots of dates to find one that wants a second date and even more seconds for a third. It's a waste of your resources. Enjoy your freedom. I stopped dating in 2008. There are plenty of good things about women and plenty of bad things. My longest relationship was 2.5 years. It was to a married women who told me she was single. 2.5 years of wasted love, money and time. I tried and failed to rebound. Date after date after date. Sure part of the issue is me I realize that. I'm single now and do what I want. No one to lie and hurt me. My money is spent on me. Are there good women out there? Without a doubt but it's like trying to find a needle in a needle stack. You get hurt a lot before find the right one and then you hope she won't divorce you take half your shit and the kids.

Yep i get that user. I know there are benefits to being single. I can basically do whatever I want whenever I want. But I'm still lonely all the time. I just want to know what it's like to have a girlfriend who cares about me. As it is i feel like i'm missing out on a huge part of life, and the older i get the harder it gets.

Its different for everyone. But going that long with only your thoughts, you'll find out what you truly want

Sometimes I miss it but then remember all the bad things. IMO the negative aspects outweigh the benefits. If your curious about what sex feels like get a pro. As for intimacy it's great but you have to put up with a lot of shit in any relationship.

Sure, I'm asking what you found out though.

I see. I think you are approaching this from the wrong side. You shouldn't go out there with the intention of finding a girlfriend. Your main goal instead should be gaining experience. Experience in the bedroom, but also in relationships - because especially latter is very hard. Your first relationship will most likely fail anyways, because this stuff is hard to maintain, thus you need experience.

For your first time, there are two choices. Firstly, if you are lucky, you can find someone in your hobby circle, that you have a connection with and who can lead you into things. This is tough, because usually it should be the man leading, not the women. Psychology stuff, women really don't feel attracted to men, who they have to tell what to do. But ofc there can be exceptions.
Second option would be a good old prostitute. There is no easier way to get a young, attractive girl. And it's a safe way to train your bedroom game + kissing, which should also boost your confidence, too.

Generally, don't get too focused on the relationship part. These things come naturally and usually it's the women who initiates this. Usually, at a date you should get a good feeling whether she is attracted to you or not. And in doubt, you should try to slowly kiss her at the end. If she gives you the cheek, then it's a no and you can call it off. If it's the mouth, then it's a yes. But it might be too much for someone without any experience, hence the prostitute.

Go to India, gat an arranged marriage

I mean at this point, you can probably just own it and be frank with girls about it

I'll take what I can get user, which so far has been nothing. Sure, i'd love to get some experience in the bedroom, but not a single one of my dates has ended in that. I don't know how to progress from meeting someone to intimacy, so we just say our goodbyes at the end and that's it.
I don't know, i'm not really interested in being with a prostitute but that might be my only option at this point. Years of trying and nothing. I might have no other option.

Just get a cheap hooker bro, bad pussy is still pussy and you'll stop worrying about it.

It's not gonna mean much to you. But everything comes to an end

Sex isn't overrated, it's feel good. And you want more. If we could live in a world were we just have sex all day than we would, but that nothing productive would be done. And we would get not survive as humans

surprisingly good dating advice on Any Forums

I'd add that you can go to therapy to start gaining relationship advice. From my experience, a lot of relationships fail because one partner didn't know how to respect boundaries, be assertive, deal with anger or whatever

100 for half hour in Asian Massage Parlours

Hey anonette, i'm user. i'm a virgin
>oh you're a virgin! hot, let's fuck!

lol except that would definitely not happen
the second she realizes what i am she'd stop talking to me

Sex isn't the only fucking thing in life you pathetic retard.

Work on yourself. Make it so you like yourself and are confident, thats enough to attract a woman, you don't need to go groveling sniffing begging for one.

I'm not looking to have sex all day every day user. At this point i'd settle for once in a lifetime. That would be nice. Then after that we'll see how it goes.

It all starts from within. Get to the gym, ride your bike to get some coffee. Invest in yourself and get on those dating apps and find something decent bud.

At 36 Girls your age are looking to get married very quick and they will want a baby in the next few months.
Your time is probably gone to play around and have casual sex so unless you after looking to be a father in the next few months just accept your life as it is. Women make things much more complicated and even though you think it will fix things it will only introduce problems you never imagined.

wtf no, if you walk up to a girl and announce you're a virgin, you're a creep. Same if you'd announce that you have a 10 inch cock. That's not how communication works

Dating apps are a waste of time unless you have the looks to back it up. Cold approach (in person) is better for average guys.

Do therapists know how to deal with older virgins? Seems like we're so rare that the fact that we even exist is shocking to most.
My life is generally pretty good user. Everything except for the virginity part. I'm to the point where lack of sexual experience is the biggest thing holding me back. I doubt spending more time focusing on my career or hobbies is going to help with that.
