21 1/2, and counting. Not even in the running. At first I had religious objections\*, now I mostly lack for opportunity. I’d support the Dopefest/orgy plan, but I’m probably moving back to Massachusetts, which isn’t exactly orgy country.

- True story: I lost my high school sweetheart because I wasn’t willing to have sex with her. Yeah, I’m a guy. How backwards is _that_?

I doubt I’d ever make it to the Orgy. If I want meaningless sex, I can get it for free without leaving my room.

I crave the companionship more then anything else. Getting laid, to me, is very much secondary to that. Sure, if I find the right person, sex will come soon, but it’s not the sole reason.

Oh, sure, the orgy would be great…until afterwards, when the lonliness would be even worse, because for awhile I had hope.

That, and I’d probably end up being Patient Zero of a hideous STD that evolved that very day. :smack:

Hi. My name’s Roland (except it isn’t). I’m 22.

Yep, you guessed it.

Sad? Nah. Look at it this way: if it mattered, it’d be different, but it doesn’t, so it isn’t. At such time as I care, I may make an effort to do something about it. Until then, meh. I remain.

Aw, come on! Look at this way. You’d get to make medical history.

I’m not helping, am I? Sorry.

Well, there are worse fates than ending up in a glass case in a museum, I guess.

If you’ll excuse me, I have to get back to sitting in the dark, listening to Mozart’s Lacrimosa. Over and over again. At high volume.

Sorry, I’m still ‘winning’ at 45 and holding. But like you, I’d much prefer to NOT win this one, thank you.

(ahem). I’m female, I had just turned 15 when it happened. It was okay.

Channeling Jim Carrey: “I’ve had better.” 😃

But seriously, as far as losing-virginity experiences go, it was okay.

See, that’s the thing, often it’s not worth it anyway. I don’t wish I had waited, i wish I had chosen someone else.

Within one month of being 20. I’m female. I had sworn to wait until 20, I almost made it.

**PapSett** and I will meet you at a place and time of your choosing and give you such a wedgie you’ll be flossing elastic out from between your molars.

Technically, I think I win, as Papsett has not actually done the deed yet.

Male here. I’m 23, and so far nothings happened. No relationships or anything. I guess I’m fairly average looking, and I’ve almost fixed the weight problem. I’d rather have a relationship than sex though,as it can get really lonely sometimes. As well during those shitty weeks when everything is going against you, it would be nice to come home to someone for reassurance.

Contrary to popular belief, musicians do not always get the girls. At least not jazz musicians. ☹

No shit.

To echo **Sampiro** , it depends on how you define losing it. For me, I lost it from the ages of 13-22, with the help of no fewer than 6 girls. Sadly, not all at the same time, and not consistantly and constantly throughout that time. That woulda rocked!

Honestly, does it happen for most people that you go from “hello” to “let’s fuck” all in one go? No oral-only relationships? No hand/finger play?

Nope, as one of the aforementioned “anything _but_” girls, that’s what sustained me and several relationships until I finally gave up the friggin’ key to Fort Knox. :rolleyes:

So, to paraphrase Mae West, I might have been considered pure as the driven snow, but I drifted. A LOT.

See how alike we are? The only reason I waited until the day before my birthday was because he wasn’t in my vicinity till then. Stupid long-distance relationships.

Yeah, but the good news is that you’ll have a disease named after you!

I (a female) lost mine a few days after my 21st birthday. It was a combination of obliviousness, shyness, and the opportunity not presenting itself in such a way that I took it as an opportunity.

Wowsers. I’m assuming that at the time, this lady wasn’t the grandmotherly type as all of the _Golden Girls_ were, but DAMN. That’s wild.

Well, if same sex oral counts, I lose this competition really a lot. Wait, that’s still true for everything else. Nevermind. Carry on!
