Does anyone else not see the point in even trying to have sex

>>35675012
just get an escort nerd

>>35675052
That's like saying I can experience the glories of being a youthful martial artist if I buy a karate trophy from a pawn shop.

>>35675012
>I feel I'd rather have a great relationship with no sex at all rather than one where we have sex regularly because I'm long past the age that I was supposed to be having sex I'll never experience it the way I was meant to

I really don't understand that at all. There's plenty of normies that complain about feeling empty after having sex with randoms. Better late than never imo.

>>35675271
Why do you say that? I think the lingering thoughts of knowing that I'll never truly experience sex the way I was meant to would end up making me feel so much worse. At least I feel like I'd avoid them if I never have sex at all.

Not to mention the more obvious issues of stuff like who would want to have sex with a 26 year old virgin lol

I'm 21 and feel more or less the same way, I'm obviously no expert on the matter but I think the reason sex is seen as THE goal here is because of what it represents, or at least what it's idealized as. Complete intimacy with another person, even if it is just a fleeting thing like a one night stand. The implied connection is what I want, I'm fucking lonely and terrified of dying without having had the chance to experience that with another person, the physical act itself doesn't really interest me.

>>35675012
funny how you people think you know about something you've never experienced.

>>35675012
There are no enjoyable experiences I could possibly have with other human beings at this point in my life.

>>35675502
Well... am I wrong? If so, please explain it to me rather than just quipping...

>>35675585
your opinion on sex is dumb. yeah you missed out on the teenage phase, so what? you can still get in the game/enjoy it from here on out, giving up entirely because you got a late start is stupid. think of it like joining an MMO after launch, you just have some catching up to do.

>>35675012
33 year old virgin.

It's all over for us.

It's not just that we can never get the experience Chad has. It's that we no longer even truly desire sex.

I was going down on this girl. And all I could think of was "I wish I was doing something else. I wish I was reading a book. I wish I was in my garden." Anything but mindlessly trying to get a girl off.

Chad uses sex as a way to empower himself. He grades himself on his sex. How many women he's fucked.

We have no way of climbing the leaderboards so we don't even want to partake anymore.

We've gone without sex for decades and decades and we just don't care anymore.

We don't want to play the game.

>>35675838
I'd say 26+ is missing out on more than just "the teenage phase"

What would honestly be the point in having sex now? It will never be anywhere as good as it ever could have been. I'm already past the sexual prime of my life and it's all downhill here from here. Wouldn't actually having sex just make that even more apparent? To myself, and to others?

This is all also ignoring the fact that who would actually want to have sex with a 26+ virgin either

I'm a 26 year old virgin and I still crave it, but I know at this point my chances of losing it the traditional way are the same as winning the lottery. Not a day goes by where I don't think about offing myself, and not the meme rk9 people that talk about killing themselves for sympathy, I mean the real shit just getting my gun and blowing my head off. Words can't describe the envy I have when I see young couples. What choices do I have at this point other than killing myself? The plan right now is I am saving every penny I make at work and I'm going to move to a different country, I will never be able to fuck a white american girl that is for sure. Hopefully with the language barrier it will hide my autism. If that doesn't work out, I'm going to shoot heroin. Then hopefully OD. Or I'll get super drunk and just blow my head off.

>It will never be anywhere as good as it ever could have been. I'm already past the sexual prime of my life

honestly don't know what the fuck you're even trying to say except "i'm scared to try and get laid"

>>35676413

Not him but I am legit scared, because I am so old to be a virgin and so awkward around women.

Out of curiosity; Why/how have you guys never had sex? Looks, standards too high, autismal, weight??? I really wanna know.

I'm socially anxious as fuck and was a complete shut in during high school but post high school I was able to fuck a decent amount of meh to hot looking women. 23 now and sitting at 10 girls fucked and one of those 10 being a long time off and on gf that I love more than I could ever explain. I feel sorry for anyone who's never felt that kind of connection with someone

>>35676413
I wouldn't say that it's that I'm scared, just that... I don't know. I really don't know how to describe it other than simply feeling hopeless and not even understanding what the point would be at my age.

Depression in high school lead to severe self-esteem issues and other related things. As a result, I never learned much how to interact with people romantically. A couple of years ago, I managed to luck my way into a party invite and my social life has been pretty healthy ever since because I'm generally quite funny and sociable, but I still have no concept at all how to interact with someone romantically unless they do 100% of the work.

I still suffer from a lot of self-esteem problems and I'm afraid to ever hit on women because I'm worried they'll think I'm creepy for being attracted to them and my whole social life will fall apart.

>>35676619

Not only have I never had sex but I have never kissed a girl or hugged one, no connection with girls in my entire life. I had very low self esteem in high school, I grew my hair long and didn't really work out. Starting of my 11th grade year, the few friends I had either dropped out or drifted away from me so I dropped out myself. I then went to a special high school where you didn't have to talk to anyone. During this time I got my hair cut, started hitting the gym and dieting improving my looks. I graduated from there, still with zero friends. I then went on to community college where I fucked around a lot, took forever to get my 2 year AA. I never talked to anyone in CC I just went to class and then went home. Now I have a job, still no friends. No contact with women at all.

Once you get to the point where you've given up, that's when you've won.

If you look decent just download Tinder and swipe on everyone. Eventually you'll get some matches, probably fat chicks, but you can still fuck. Sex isn't the greatest thing in the world like society has you believe...but it is integral to having real adult relationships.

>>35677013
I really don't think anonymous sex with people I have no connection to would really make me feel any better about myself.

I have to go to sleep soon and this thread will likely purge before I get up. I promise to read any and all responses that anyone else wants to post though, and I really hope I get some more. Goodnight R9K.

I'm a 34 yo KV making 200K a year and I'm buying a sex doll after I pay my taxes this year.

No relationship.

No sex.

Just fucking a rubber doll.

I'm just being practical at this point.

this thread makes me appreciate not being a virgin

Exact same desu senpai but holy fuck I'm so horny I could fuck dudes.
Don't mix exercise and celibacy fampais.

>>35678056
it probably won't make you feel better about yourself but it will enable you to form healthy relationships - you need to get it over with so that you can move on. also you don't want your first time (in your mid 20s) to be with someone you actually care about.

>>35679016
Fucking dudes is easy (I assume), it doesn't really count. I've had totally random guys hit on me hard when I'm at a bar.

>>35679103
>also you don't want your first time (in your mid 20s) to be with someone you actually care about.
Why not? That seems like it would be a much healthier thing to do.

This is why I'm buying a sex doll. I couldn't have proper sex anyway. My dick is only really working properly for the first time at my age in my 30s now.

I've avoided sex my whole life for multiple reasons.

I am fucking a 10 lb vag/ass sex toy now and I jizz in like 10 strokes.

Sex with a normal human would be impractical and unrealistic. Better to just fuck a sex doll that can't judge me or care.

>>35679142
i guess for me my first few times were just embarrassing and i was glad to get them over with, there was no magic "oh my god my first time" moment, just awkwardness

>>35679142
Yeah but what I mean is, I want to form a platonic friendship with a man, then go on to slowly develop feelings and start kissing and touching dicks and getting very invested. Or a woman, whichever comes first.

It's very alarming to someone who always considered himself hetero.

>>35679202
I mean, I'm not holding out for some magical moment with the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with

I'd just prefer to have sex (especially losing my virginity) to a woman I at least actually care about a lot as opposed to a random hookup or casual thing.

Maybe that's dumb, I don't know. I have really screwed up views of sexual and romantic interactions from being a 26 year old virgin.

>>35675012
32 (gay) virgin. I really need a relationship more than ever. I mean, I've been hornier before, but now I think I need a relationship. And not with just anyone, but someone smart who I really connect with. I really don't care about looks at all.

I'm just saying this because you'll probably come to the same conclusion (minus the gay), and your post is just wishful thinking.

i'm in my mid 30s. i was diagnosed with asperger's in my 20s.

i had a few friends in high school, but looking back, i think i was more of a weird mascot for people. i don't think i ever learned how to have friends, much less a girlfriend. years after i graduated, i found out that all of the people i thought were my friends went to all kinds of parties that i never knew about.

i just tried to get through college as quickly as possible. i finished in a little over 2 years. i never made any friends. i got really depressed for a few years and spent a lot of time in bathroom stalls trying (without much success) to manage anxiety.

i graduated from college. i worked as a research assistant and all of my co-workers were my parents age. i'd been doing this for a few years when i got a call that my brother had killed himself. he was literally the only person i ever talked to and the only person in the world that i trusted. i got depressed again.

i knew i would wind up dead if i didn't force myself to change my environment. i got accepted to graduate school. there was no shortage of women my age in graduate school looking for a husband, but i was not real prime material compared to my peers. i'm in terrible shape, i don't make eye contact, and i struggle to have a normal conversation that isn't about my area of expertise. but i did well academically in graduate school and i was able to turn out interesting, original work and it was published.

after i finished graduate school, i got a job that pays a lot of money. i own my own house in a cool neighborhood in a large city. i have still never even kissed a girl. i know it makes me weird at my age, but it stopped bothering me years ago. what does bother me is no longer having any person in my life like my brother, that i feel like actually understands me and that i can trust.
