Lie to your friends, or lie to prospective women? If they are really your friends, then you should be able to be honest with them. It's unusual to be 24 and not have any dating experience, but it's your life. If you're happy with being single, then don't worry about what anyone else thinks. If you're not happy, then it is up to you to make changes.

Don't lie, it will only come back to haunt you later on. Just be yourself, i'm sure there are others your age who haven't had a girlfriend/boyfriend yet.

I've never had any dating experience. It's probably more common than you think. You don't know people's experiences growing up in their teens or what not. I'm 24 now, and my confidence has definitely improved over the last couple of years. At this point, I'm open to a relationship, but I'm not actively seeking it. I have school, my own personal business (which is currently going well), social life, and internships to deal with it.

Edit-To the open poster, I've lied about having some (haven't exaggerated it or anything) relationship experience in the past to my friends. I don't believe they'd treat me any differently if I told them the truth, but I know for sure they'd wonder why and would maybe ask questions as well (which I'd rather not deal with). The funny thing is most people assume I'm a ladies man in real life (by the way I talk, dress, etc.). If only they really knew..lol

I don't see how that would be the case. It's not like they'd do a background check on your relationship history or anything...lol
