There are no rules that say you have to lose your virginity by a certain age. As I've seen from several threads on Boards in the past, many people here were virgins into their 20s, and there's nothing wrong with that. Losing your virginity is all down to when you feel you're ready to lose it, rather than succumbing to pressure because you're worried about what the world thinks of you if you haven't lost it by a certain age.

Absolutely not. Take you time and don's rush in to anything. it's not at all too late

No. When it happens it happens. You're in control as to whenever that moment will be. Be it tomorrow or 5 years down the line. Either way is perfectly normal.

Nope, nothing wrong with it, i was nearly 19 when i lost mine which "is old" (or so my mates at the time tried to convince me) for a guy to lose his, dont worry about what other people think do whats right for yourself, sex isnt a contest, losing your virginity young doesnt make it any better (probably the opposite)

I'm 22 and it's the same story with me. Don't worry mate, the only opinion that matters here is your own. It's not a race and it won't change who you are when it happens.

Call me old-fashioned if you want, but it's nearly too young NOT to be....

Bottom line is that you and everyone else are different. What you do is up to you, when the time is right for you.

I think it's admirable that you're a young woman and still a virgin, I'm male and 18, yet still a virgin so I know how it feels.
Who gives two flying ****s if you're a virgin, it's all your choice and only depends on your criteria, nobody elses.

You should stop worrying about it...there is not right or wrong age for this but personal desire of when, why, who and what feels right for you and don't feel you need to conform to the mtv conditioned society you may be faced with!

I was 19 when i lost mine, nothing wrong with waiting for the right person - you'll be glad down the line looking back and knowing it was an enjoyable experience rather than something you did just to get out of the way

i was 18 and a half when i lost my virginity...and looking back i wish i'd waited longer LOL. i was in a hurry by that point.

there is no age too old imo. you do it when you are ready and NOT before

Hey, you're def not too old! Good on ya!

I'm 28, also a girl and still a virgin. And I'm proud of it!

I've been chased by lots of guys, have dated lots and lots, had a couple short term relationships and have fooled around but I've never let it happen because something didn't feel right with the person I was with at that time. I'm grateful I didn't force it, because I am not going out with any of those guys now.

There's no shame in being fussy and proud of your choices. Guys will really respect you for it, trust me.

Always do what will make you happy, not what will please someone else. Don't dwell on it. More people than you think are in your position or wish they were. Save it for someone who really cares about you and when you meet that person make them wait a few months for it too!

I remember being a virgin, I'm from a fairly rough area and most people lost theirs around the age of 14/15 (often with bloody disasterous results, guys that age can't keep their mouths shut, or don't want to, and girl's names were dragged through the mud). I lied and said I'd done it on holidays, one of our friends would have made my life a misery if she knew I was a virgin (would have changed my nickname to "frigid" and the like), so I just lied. I tells ya this though I'm bloody glad I did, I was left alone and didn't get any hassle so I waited until I was actually ready (19) and in a relationship so my first time was good. I know it can feel like you're the only one that's a virgin and it feels like a really huge deal but honestly it's really not. Wait til you're ready, you'll be glad you did.

i was older then all my mates when i lost mine, yes i felt i wanted to loss it asap back then, but glad i actually waited,and that i lost it with someone who was special to me at the time, and it felt so right,so while your mates might have lost theres i d say dont rush into it, think when your 40 and look back,yes they lost it at 17 in some park while drunk,and maybe you ll lose it with a bf in a nice hotel or somewhere romantic, who ll look back with the nicer memory

Virginity can be as big or as little a deal as you want to make it. Personally, losing my virginity was so memorable that I can barely remember much about it now apart from the guy's name and the fact that it was a thoroughly underwhelming experience :rolleyes:

Whether you are a virgin or not is your own personal business. If you do have sex with someone, it should be because you want to, not something to do just so that you won't feel left out amongst your peers. There are plenty of people out there who look back now and say they were too young to be having sex at 14 or 15.

I'm 24, still a virgin and have had a few short term relationships and wouldn't dream of loosing it just for the sake of it. Think you should stick to the advice above. Guys will respect you for it. And it shows you've respect for yourself.

I'm 21 and lost it to my boyfriend at 20. He was also a virgin. He was 22. We were together for 15 months when it happened. Why? Because we didn't feel ready. Nothing wrong with that. I felt the way you do now and contemplated just "getting it over and done with" but everytime I found myself in the position where I could if I wanted to, I wouldn't because I'd realise that I wanted it to be with someone I actually cared about.

You are never to old to lose it. And 18 certainly isn't too old.

Concentrate on finding somebody worthy before concentrating on your virginity. The last thing you want is to lose it to some random guy or "player" because you think everyone else is doing it.
