I am and I have never been in a relationship, never had sex and haven't had an actual kiss since my first which was when I was 6 or 7. I am now 19.
Sometimes when I think about it, I feel like no-one wants me and life just seems to be passing me by.

Is anyone else a late bloomer or was one? How did you manage to get out of that phase and begin to grow as a person? Please don't let this thread flop, it could be a good discussion.

I was quite an early bloomer but I ended up regretting it in the end. I got out of it by having quick little hookups when I was 15-16. It was fun at the time, but in the end it just didn't feel right because ultimately I felt dirty. Even though I've had sex since then, I still feel like I have never had meaningful sex or a meaningful relationship.

While I don't believe in the theory that you have to "conserve your virginity for the right one" (), you shouldn't feel weird for not having sex yet. Wait until you feel comfortable with it. The right person will come.

I didn't want to be an (overly) late bloomer so I went and lost my virginity a couple of days before I turned 19.

As for kisses, didn't happen till I was 16. But I wouldn't stress about that one, most kisses are bad.

It's taking too long though

yes because I was very uncomfortable with my sexuality for years. it honestly hasnt been until the last two years that I started to accept myself, and let some love in

Lmao you're lucky

I'm literally exactly the same, age and all. I'm not comfortable with my body even though I wear a size small, so I know I wouldn't feel comfortable/confident for sex and everything. I feel like I've already missed so much

Yeah. Lost my v when I was 22, piss drunk and all. Not a good experience. People rushing other people into conforming to social standards is just mean. I've grown as a person, but only when I realized that social standards are bs and I can live my life like it's nobody's business.

Definitely wait until you're with someone you care about. I don't care if you're dating them for two weeks or two years before you have sex with them, just wait. I was 17 when I first fooled around with a guy who I thought liked me and I regretted it deeply and 75% of people who I've met that had a similar experience feel the same. Your first time doesn't have to be ~*~special~*~ but make sure you feel 100% safe and comfortable with the person you're going to do it with.

I got my first bj at 13 and sex at 14 so no

No, lost my Vcard at 17.

Yes, i didnt even accept to myself that i was gay until i was 16. first sexual experience with a guy at 18. im 20 now and in my expiremental age, im more open to sex now and im very in touch with myself and my needs

yep. I still haven't dated anyone - I'm 23

um i gave my bj when i was a kid on some people i know closely but lemme not even talk about that, other than that i never had a bf, i usually have crushes on a lot of people and feel like a weirdo because of it on daily basis. but ill find love one day
