It seems almost all girls in their late teens and early 20's are in serious, long-term committed relationships, they are always taken.

I think once you turn 18 or older, it is a bad time to be single, especially for guys, because what I have noticed is that girls do not stay single as long as guys do.

I once worked with a woman who was 34 and never had any type of relationship... guy or girl. She still seemed normal. As for you "Heyfrog" you are a beautiful young lady! Someday you will find who you are looking for and it will be worth the wait! You should only do what feels right and you will know when you have found that certain "one" who is what you have been looking for all along.

trust me, teenage girls never know what they want anyways. Chances are you'd be falling in love with a typical ***hole and instead you'd be moaning and ****ing about how you can't find a normal guy when there are many out there. Early relationships are very good though at helping people mature. I've been through a lot of bs so I've grown up and learned to stop playing childish games, plus I'm more aware of what I want in a girl, bettering my chances of being happy in future relationships. You're not missing out on much...

Thats because girls always let the wrong guys choose them pick them, or for the most part. Also being introverted hurts guys a lot more than it hurts girls, since society expects us guys to initiate everything.

I'm a college student who will be 19 in a couple months and I've never had a girlfriend. Well I sorta had one in middle school, but it was really short, middle school is way to early for it to count for anything . It's not because of my looks, I'm very tall and get compliments fairly frequently. It just sort of never happened, which is especially odd for a guy since we're supposed to make the first move. It's taken me a while to figure it out, and now I'm finally putting myself out there-and I don't regret it!

Making the first move and pursuing or chasing a girl, taking the initiative is very difficult if you don't have relationship experience, I feel your pain, for me it's probably because I have Asperger Syndrome.

Took me a year to figure it out when I was in your position, should be about the same for you. Once you pass that first step, you'll succeed in more and more attempts/dates/relationships. It's natural progression at it's finest, building confidence through experience. It can go both ways though, just don't let rejections ruin your self esteem. Happened to me before, not a good feeling...

I am 19. I have never had a bf, and only one date when I was 16 that was a set up. I just feel so odd and alone.

I'm 27, soon to be 28, and I've never had a girlfriend--it happens, no point in beating yourself up over it.

You'll find that guys will naturally gravitate toward you if you're well-adjusted and have a positive outlook. Just go out and enjoy life!

Yeah it always helps and pays off to have an Optimistic attitude, but it's hard if you have always been single because we live in a Couples Society, it makes you feel unwanted. I feel it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.

I'm almost 22 and I have never had a girlfriend, it sucks, I don't like it at all, and since I am inexperienced, it hurts me more than I am a guy and society expects guys to be more assertive.

well that's not good, if you're not virgins though I guess that's acceptable haha. A lot of girls like guys with experience in the bed department, some are ok with the fact that you're a virgin but for many it's a turn off. Sad fact, but true. Same goes for girls.

I hate how it is always up to the guy to approach girls and start a conversation, take the lead, because having a mental developmental disorder such as Asperger Syndrome makes it nearly impossible.

^Bullshit. Your problem isn't Aspergers. It's your flat out refusal to grow up and behave like a man. People have succeeded with far worse than Aspergers.

Whoever wrote this right here made a very good valid point on how it is much harder for men and easier for women:
In reality, it is much more difficult for a man to meet a woman than it is for a woman to meet a man. Women are able to approach men and are also able to wait to be asked out. Men can not wait and rely on women to approach and ask for the date because men WILL NEVER BE ASKED OUT. Men have to do everything in order to get anything with a woman. Women have the god given right of never having to deal with rejection or incur any of the pain associated with it. When a man gets rejected he has to shrug it off and his friends would tell him to “be a man”. On the other hand, if a woman gets rejected, she would most likely take it as a personal insult on her inner child and her friends will comfort her. A woman is automatically accepted by society as a woman; whereas men have to prove themselves at every turn. A shy woman WILL get asked out without having to over come it. Men have to work more on themselves than women do. Men must have confidence, real self confidence, that is not based solely on how they look, but rather understanding and acknowledging their self worth in order to approach. Building up this type of confidence takes time and understanding.

Whats interesting is that women don't have to put even half the effort compared to men and they have every possible advantage in the singles life, and dating/relationship scene and yet they still believe that they have it harder, when they don't realize how much easier they have it.

Not odd at all. Odd to be a parent at 19.

I believe that stuff that I posted here, which I copied and pasted from another site, that guy who wrote that has a very good valid point, women don't have to put half the effort in order to attract a potential date.

i had my first girlfriend when i was 19 and kept my virginity til then too.

so i don't think it's odd.

I wanted to enjoy my teenage years, go out have fun, not have to care about spending time with just one person, not have to worry about all the emotions and stress that relationships can bring.

I don't think it messed me up at all.

There's no set ages at which to have a girlfriend/boyfriend.

The fact that i went to a single sex primary and secondary school probably influenced this, but i don't lose sleep over it.
If i'd grown up around girls, then maybe i'd have had a girlfriend *shrugs*

who cares.

if you think it's odd still being single at 19, message more people on here and go out and grab a boyfriend.

Well it's kinda embarassing because an overwhelming majority of people have their very first boyfriend/girlfriend in high school, or before they enter their 20's, same thing with losing virginity, I feel it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.

Something to add...When you're on a date, NEVER mention the fact that you never had a relationship. Even if you have to lie about it, do not under any circumstances say that. It might make the other person think you are desperate, weird, crazy, or like what my virgin friend put on his profile...."I'm an amateur at everything".

So I should lie about it? wouldn't that turn a woman off? besides, they will probably find out eventually down the road on a guy's past experience, I seriously hate gender-roles in society.
