Everyone is so focused on the sex part of the post. I think she's missing out because she has chosen to forego relationships - not because she is refraining from sex.
like your favorite flavor of ice cream, or your favorite hobby(in my case video games)
now imagine if you'd never done that hobby, it's like that with sex
you're missing out on something great, you just don't really know it yet
It isn't all that "great." The way you are putting it makes it very overrated.
I wouldn't do it for the sake of just doing it which is the reason why I am willing to wait this out. If it never happens again for me it's not going to be a big deal. I want the friendship first. Without that forget it.

Very wise of you, OP. The bolded part is the worst, IMO. Steps can be taken to avoid the other two.
I dislike any type of conflict, hassles, or drama.

Reason: clarification.
Because SEX is one of the best things in life, if not the best one.
And having INTIMACY with someone you love, oh well, thats probably the peak of happinnes you can experience. From the kiss to all the foreplay to the great sex, to looking at that person in the eyes while you are doing it, touch, share, achieve orgasm together. Its all such a magical experience that i would advice anyone to do it as soon as possible, to search for it.
Of course love haves downsides, tell me about it. Heartbreak is horrible, the potential of being very hurt is very scary, etc, but im a person that thinks that life is worth living for those amazing moments of happiness, and those moments of sadness that come with it, are just the price we pay for them. But life is ONLY worth living for those moments.
I find people that does not take chances to live the best things in life (even knowing failing and hurt are likely gonna happen) to be very COWARD.
I find people that takes chances and go after what they want and enjoy live to the fullest to be brave, interesting, and, frankly, the only people i wanna be surrounded by.
I have never had a "long term" relationship or engaged in sex and I'm in my early 30s. I was just far too busy focusing on my education, career, traveling, and establishing strong relationships with family and friends. I never wanted to worry about diseases, pregnancy or other associated relationship issues...
However people always tell me that I'm missing out, I'm not sure why they believe that I'm missing out. I'm very happy and content at this stage in my life. There is a possibility that at some point I will seek out a relationship, but currently, I'm not so much looking for one -unless I just happen to meet the right guy out of the blue.
Do most think that people who choose to forego relationships and sex are "missing out?"
I was a virgin till 8 months ago at the age of 28 and I thought like you I was wrong.
