No.

It's not okay to lie. It never is. I don't understand this "Having a bunch of sex, been to numerous clubs, done a bunch of crazy shyt, being insanely successful..." type past so many seem to want these days. What does any of that matter if you're not happy. Why live to please people? Who gives a flying f*ck? If you're not hurting anybody or hurting yourself, and they judge you because you are not exciting enough. You don't need them.

End of story.

I'm late 20's. I have a lot of issues that have prevented me from doing a lot of things.

If I'm asked, I'm just going to be honest. If they don't like it, who cares. Dating isn't really important to me anyway.

Why would anyone ask? This question never comes up.

Well, do you have a date, or is this just speculation, about how you would handle a date? The fact that you think it might be ok to lie reflects the fact that you have issues. Have you ever tried to get some professional help for those issues, OP? It sounds like it would be really helpful to do so. You might be relieved to have someone to talk to about everything, if you found a good counselor.

You'd be surprised how nosy some people can be.

I don't believe anyone would ever ask that unless you're weird in many other ways and then they would probably assume it.

Go easy I think it is reactions like this that make some lie or withhold.

Sometimes it's better to have "no past". The other person might find it refreshing because they have a weathered past especially if they're a woman. I wholeheartedly have a past but people would find that harder to deal with than having a boring life. Obviously if one has a past that's fine they should share it but it's not something you'd want to lie about.
