whether it denotes loserdom, well it's for the guy to decide.

i don't think it matters in general though.

Great forum, I had fun reading all posts!
I am 26, have been busy traveling worldwide and getting my MBA Only had a 3 months platonic RL and that was 6 years ago . Havent been on a date since then (Not that I cared much ). Actually nobody -in my age range- asks me on a date... But I do get mature men trying to get my attention all the time I am pretty down to earth but look VERY young and dont understand the interest... freaks me out a bit Now that I have a steady career, I really wanna catch up... People constantly tell me I am very pretty and smart... but I am a little shy and I feel like I intimidate most men... Dont know where/how to start a RL... Once in a blue moon, I would be attracted to someone (the quiet and intellectual type), but would become so utterly excited they would freak out... What do i need to know before I hit the dating scene? And at what stage of the dating should I reveal my VGTY? Is that a turn off for a man? Just looking for someone I can connect with, who would see in me, more than just a pretty face. I am afraid my lack of experience is gonna hurt me ... Would a man date a 26y virgin and not think she is a freak? And how long would a good mate be willing to wait before having

About them freaking out, do you mean that you come on too strong? If so, just relax.

As for your virginity, I'd wait until you've decided to get physical. If he wants sex earlier in the relationship than you feel that you're ready for, just say that you want to take it slow (this works if you're a virgin or not). I was 24 and told him at nearly the last second, mainly because I was worried that it could hurt if he was a little rough and didn't know to take it easy. It didn't weird him out. Really, it's only as big of a deal as you make it. If you burst out with "I'm a virgin" early on and keep bringing it up or acting awkward about it, he'll probably get freaked out. If it comes up and you're just like "yup, it just happened that way" then it's not a huge deal. Honestly, it's probably more common than you think (I know of several who are 25-26, none for religious reasons).

You're 26 and obviously not afraid of using up smilies in almost every sentence. I like that in a woman.

Re-Read Mango-Tango's post. I too doubt that you intimidate very many men. Is it possible you have the idea you are a good catch, but in reality maybe you're just average? I'm not trying to put you down, I'm trying to get you to stop and think what you are doing wrong to attrack only older men, and not younger guys your own age. When you talk to an attractive guy you would be interested in dating, do you get nervous? Sometimes you might come across differently than you think. Your dress, the way you wear your hair, your smile and attitude all give an indication of what you are all about. You need to change something if you want to change the results.

by the by, whoever posted the rep point (you know who you are ), i don't go for 20-something women. i largely like older women. a late 30s virgin, well it's bad to be judgmental, but i would in honesty be like .
