3. Think about how hard it is to find a good girl that you like, are attracted to, you are compatible with, AND that likes you, is attracted to you and is compatible with you. It's hard enough in the first place. Then imagine *eliminating* 99 out of every 100 girls from that potential dating pool. You only have one girl left out of every 100 if you are waiting until marriage for sex. Then, you have to work from there and still attempt to find one that you are compatible with, attracted to, etc. It's impossible.
1. FYI, you don't have to believe what everyone else believes in regards to this.

2. Actually, 2-3 percent of the whole population could mean 2-3 percent of the female population as well, since 2-3 percent of females plus 2-3 percent of males equals 2-3 percent of the total population.

3. The thing is that you don't have to marry someone who waited until marriage before she had sex. You can still abstain yourself and marry someone who is not a virgin. Just because one is planning to abstain from sex until he or she gets married doesn't mean that this individual needs to automatically eliminate everyone else who didn't abstain from his or her dating pool. This is what I am planning to do, and I am an agnostic.

I'm thinking there were no "morals, values or ethics" in the first place.
What a waste of everyone's time to even respond to the first post.

Original Poster: Isn't it past your bedtime? Do your parents know you are on a public forum talking about your lack of sex life, morals, ethics and values.......or lack of?

Oh well great! The market's already tight, and you're inviting everyone else to join in.

I vote for this method. Some women really like doing the mentor thing. And you may as well learn from someone who has the confidence to do it. Just try not to fall in love, if she's not into it.

Would not do a hooker. Too emotionally weird.

Do you have a friend like this?

I'm guessing you don't, and if you don't, then do not waste more time fantasizing. Work with reality.

No one wants to be the 30 year old virgin.
I know of many younger folks in their 30's who are still virgins, not for religious reason either...it's a personal choice , when it's right, you'll know it, until then chill...

Well, then you should have hooked the OP up in his other thread!

Now that I'm older and have moved around the country a bit, I have realized that basically NOBODY thinks like that. I found a statistic that only between 2-3 percent of people actually wait for marriage to have sex. That's both genders. That means between 1 and 1.5 percent of females actually wait to have sex until marriage.

You only have one girl left out of every 100 if you are waiting until marriage for sex. Then, you have to work from there and still attempt to find one that you are compatible with, attracted to, etc. It's impossible.

The thing is, now that I've come to this realization and have accepted the fact that I'm just going to have to have sex, I'm way behind the game. I'm 25. And from what I can tell, no girl around my age (or older) wants to date a virgin or have sex with a virgin. That sort of leaves me between a rock and a hard place. Even though I'm now up for having sex, no one wants to have sex with or date a virgin. And I can't become not a virgin unless I go have sex with a girl.

What would be the best bet for me at this point? Get one of my good female friends who is sexually open to have sex with me and show me the ropes?

Just go ahead and try to have sex with the next girl I date? It seems like if I chose that method, either I would have to explain to her ahead of time why I was a virgin, which would immediately scare her off. Or I wouldn't say anything and she would be able to tell immediately when we gave it a try, which would immediately scare her off.

It feels like there's really no good way to go. Makes me wish I would have ditched the Christian morals and just had awkward 15-year-old sex with another virgin back in high school.
I know you think you are old, but you aren't. You are still young and have not reached the age where it would be very awkward to admit you are a virgin. I think I would just wait until the next girl you date. Don't tell her immediately, give yourself some time to get to know her and for you to feel like you are compatible. At that time then tell her you are a virgin and why, but that you no longer feel that is the right thing to do for you personally. Having given her some time to get to know you and like you she may be more open to having sex with you and not be caught up on the virginity. In the meantime, read up on how to please a woman so that you are ahead of the game.
