to be a 20 year old virgin? I mean I've had opportunities somewhat, at least since I was 17 but something always fell through. Now that got a chance again to lose I think I'm gonna go for it, even though she doesn't know I still I got my vcard still. I'm not 40 yet and far from it but I wanna go ahead and get it over with.

No no and no. It bothers me when young people ask questions such as these because there's no timeline to losing your virginity, you do it when you feel prepared and period. You'll gain experience with the years, don't let that bother you now. Who's this girl you're talking about, a girlfriend?

No it's not a bad thing but rather than "just getting it over with", choose your partner well. It's best if your first sexual encounter is in the context of a committed mutually exclusive relationship or barring that, with a trusted friend as opposed to a random attractive stranger or someone that you don't know very well.

There are a number of pitfalls. A lot of people become extraordinarily attached to their "first" so be aware of this in choosing the person and of course safety is an above all concern. Take your time and be super smart about it. Age 40 is a long way off yet. You have time.

I lost mine 2 months before my 20th birthday and I wasn't expecting it. I wouldn't rush such an act, you could wind up regretting it. Life with regrets would not be fun.

It's not a bad thing, don't worry. You're 20 and I know that feeling that you have where it seems everyone experienced it already. That's not always true, plus it's better to do it when you feel it is right.

Wait 8 more years then ask again and you'll be in my shoes. I'm 28 and still have yet to get laid. Quite sad, really.

Didn't lose my till 21. It's not a big deal, don't rush it like everyone else said. Make sure it's with someone whom you both mutually desire, and it'll be that much more enjoyable.

Just as an advance warning: your first time will probably not be the butterflies-and-roses explosion of passion and touching intimacy that you have likely oft-imagined it to be.

It's more likely to be squidgy, squishy, a bit awkward, and leave a big question mark over your head.
