I started my first sexual relationship at the rip old age of 25. We broke it off 7 months ago but at the time, I was impressed she didn't seem to mind at all that I was a first timer. I was shy in my younger years. Apart from that I just couldn't find the right moment and the overwhelming pressure from some of my friends made me become more disinterested.

Now I'm 28 years old and currently dating someone else. Though she's not my gf yet, I know at some point she's going to wonder about my past relationships and vice-versa. But I feel kind of embarrassing. If this conversation ever comes out, should I tell her that? I would like a woman's opinion. If a 28 year-old man told you he's only been with 1 gf and lost his virginity at the age of 25, how would you react? Would you think less of him?

At the same time I'm wondering what does it take to become a playa like some of my friends are. For some reason, I could never do that and still can't.

I don't have problems getting into dates but I tend to go on a slower pace and don't push for sex on 3rd date. I don't know if that's a turn off.

I had this happened to me once not so long ago. There was this other woman I was dating but she disappeared after I didn't push for sex nor anything else on the 5th date. I heard from someone else that she thought this was weird.

Been there, at 30. It's no big deal.

Not a problem. You have at least some idea as to how relationships work, both emotionally and physically. You're good.

This is correct. What I'm finding out is I tend to place more focus on the how I'm bonding with the woman. It's like in order for me to slowly push for sex, there has to be a reason, something that makes me turn on about her. I still don't get how some of my friends can do sex alone, with nothing to it. Some of them have told me I'm a strange species.

If a woman is turned off by you only having one girlfriend in your past...then she's probably a poor match for you anyway.
