25 year old virgins

    So I was in the late bar at home and chatting to this girl who I went to primary school with. She was telling me she broke up with her boyfriend last week.....yada yada yada usual ****e but it was the reason why that intrigued me.

    As she put it she was lying there in here "glorius nakedness" (and no she is not a fat heap, fcuking hot little thing she is) after going to the hassle of getting a Brazilian when he tells her that "he wants to wait"...................


    Seriously, the guy is 25 and a virgin. Chatting to the boys after and we got a good laugh out of it but this must be completely unusual, is it?

    Sad.

    In fact someone posting that on an internet forum must be the most pathetic thing I have ever read.

    "Chatting to the boys after"

    What a truely awful specimen you are.

    I doubt it's unusual at all. There's a lot of bravado out there, a lot of which probably isn't substantiated.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    Meh! Not really that unusual. He might wanna wait for religious reasons. He might just be awkward around women and got really nervous.
    Was this relationship meant to be short-term? If not, your friend sounds like a bitch if she dumps him just because he's a virgin.

    By the sounds of it i'd say so. But even if he was planning to be with this girl long term, she can't be expected to stay with him if he's looking for marriage and she's not....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,308 ✭✭✭Rowley Birkin QC


    Honestly Jaytee I don't think I am that pr!ck of a guy you take me to be, in fact I would consider myself to be more open minded/sensitive than most of my mates, but in fairness 25 must be fairly out there??

    Or is it just the circles or groups in which I move? 18/19 would be at the outer limit of ages when most of my mates would have got "at it". I'm 23 and the thought of not having been with someone at that age spooks me a bit to be honest.

    @ square_igloo...don't think it was religous reasons because he txted her a few hours later to say he would go through with it.

    Sorry if I touched a nerve here with people but I just found it to be highly out of the ordinary, maybe I was wrong.

    Well if it was only a quick thing, then I understand her reasoning. If all she wants is sex, then he's not much use to her.:)
    But if there was potential for a long term relationship, it seems extremely shallow to dump him because he wants to wait a while.

    Yeah i totally agree. But by the sounds of it, it goes: they meet - start going out - she's a sex crazed maniac- he's not - you're dumped - bye bye :pac:

    Would it be completely off the mark to suggest that bigkev49 and this mysterious virgin lad are in fact the same person?

    I don't mean it as a dig, but maybe you are trying to get a feeling for what people think of you as a 25 year old virgin.

    Anyway I'm more than certainly wrong so I apologise in advance.

    It was just an instinctual reaction and my instincts are usually fairly dependable.

    Either way, I dont see the problem with 25 year old virgins.

    It's a fact that nearly every single person who lost their virginity wishes they had waited.

    So fair play to the fella, pulling a hot bird who is even willing to get a Brazilian for him and fair play to him for not comprimising his principles!

    She definitely wasn't for him because 1) If she was looking for a relationship and she broke up with him over sex then obviously she doesn't share the same values as him and wasn't that into him and 2) If it was just sex she was after then they definitely didn't share the same values!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,746 ✭✭✭taidghbaby


    eh tbh honest it was up ta that man whether he wanted to have sex with her or not!!!
    a buddy of mine started goin out with a girl bout two years ago and i think she may have been his first-he's 28!!! but they are so happy together it doent matter!!

    horses for courses i say!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,191 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    I was expecting that to be the other way around right up until the "he wants to wait" part.
    It's probably not as unusual as we think, but no man is going to own up to it whereas women talking about being virgins isn't unusual.

    she sounds like a bit of a c**t spouting off about her x like that ! 25 sounds to me a little old alright but thats his business!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,584 ✭✭✭c - 13


    I don't think its that unusual to be honest. If i'm not mistaken I think I remember reading somewhere that the average age is somewhere between 16 and 18 ?

    A guy I drink who is 27/28 and he's never been with a woman. No big deal to him and even less of one to me. Leave him do what he wants, its his life. I'm sure theres much older than him out there as well.

    I do think it was severely bitchy to dump the guy for that though ...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,191 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    I wonder, is there an age after which the ship has sailed and virginity for life is almost certain? Is religion just an excuse for many?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,910 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Can i have her number?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Cokehead Mother


    Being a virgin at 25 is unusual.

    So are Irish Muslims and people who don't lick the muller lid.

    Welcome to 2008, where people have choices and often they're different to your own! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭kelle


    I would have great respect for the guy, as obviously he has great respect for women. Have you forgotten sex can lead to an unwanted pregnancy and STI's?
    I have a friend who's hitting 30, and she finds the dating game gets harder and harder as she gets older (and she is a stunner) as it's difficult to meet a guy who doesn't already have a child.

    Most of my friends are mid twenties to thirties and the majority don't have children. Maybe she's fierce picky?

    People who don't lick the lid are all mentally disturbed child killers. FACT.

    Maybe she is picky. But that is a fact, according to her.
    Can you find a link to support your last statement?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,191 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    Yes, I do know people with children, only one of them is single though.

    It's common knowledge that those who don't lick the lid don't crave the yoghurty fruity goodness and therefore prey on the weak.

    You are if all you can do is alugh at someone who's made an honest, spiritaual decision. I really respect the guy for it
    Life isn't all about getting you hole as fast and as regular as possible, you know.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Ya, I hate when people won't have sex. Bastards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,191 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    I would imagine the real average age is a few years south of the reported average for obvious reasons of bravado.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 31,584 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    maybe she was spinning you some sort of line
    she in bar getting drunk and says "broke up with guy, have nice waxed wonderland , wanted sex didn't get it..."

    the bar man was probably laughing as you went off to tell your mates... sounds like you missed the signals she was trying to send you

    I got them alrite but I have a gf so no interest to be honest.



    Seems in my drunken state last night my original post might have come across as though I went around telling everyone and breaking myself laughing about it, only chatted to 4 of the lads in the car on the way home. Never even asked the guys name or who he was because I didn't want to know.

    If thats what the guy wanted to do out of respect or religious reasons then good for him but it was the text a few hours later he sent her saying that "yeah he wanted to go through with it" kinda blows that argument out of the water. I know the first time is tough for everyone but maybe at that age he had built it up to be something that put him under so much stress he couldn't face it when the moment came.

    Anyway it seemed extremely odd last night, this morning not so much after having read this thread but still out of the ordinary for the majority of people I know. Btw thats what the thread was about, finding out if it was unusual or not.

    Maybe he had nightmares of nuns whacking his knuckles for looking at girls during Sunday school?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,525 ✭✭✭DanGerMus


    Wouldn't be my first choice but you have to respect a guy with the strength of character to refuse the sex when tis offered on a plate from a hot bird.

    Did she actually say he was a virgin? Maybe it was just to early in the relationship for him?

    Maybe he's gay?

    I'd imagine theres not too many hetrosexual men who can turn down sex, or even fooling around, when a hot naked girl is lying there begging for it.
