Zero relationship experience

I know that social pressure might make you feel like this is something you need to be doing right now, but as a a 28 (f) i can tell you the following: (1) girls don’t like when guys immediately show their romantic interest. Try becoming friends with them first and only pursue a girl that you actually like and are actually attracted to. It’s important though that you see that she reciprocate interest 2) girls like when guys are confident & funny and treat them as equals 3) 22 is still so young, don’t worry about it too much. There are also a lot of girls that are in the same position as you right now. People just don’t share that information you would be surprised how many people are in your position right now 4) you have to realise that everyone has different values when it comes to sleeping with people and not one is better than the other. Chose how you would like to go about that, do you want to wait? Would you like to engage in more casual things? Would you like to wait for a relationship,…? These are things you need to think of for yourself while also not judging the choices of other people.
Life is about making connections more than being able to say you had meaningless sex. Good luck out there!

As a 22 year old male, I’ve never had any relationship, dating experience, nor have I ever hooked up. There may have been several factors, but I just never had any luck with dating. Every time I would ask a girl out, I would always be rejected. I was always told from a young age not to just shag anyone but keep pure for your future spouse and they will love you more for it. I thought this was real as I thought others did the same. Fast forward to now, and over time I realised that I feel like my upbringing has been a lie. No one is pure and chase and other people my age have been in a relationship, or currently is in one. Any womean I approach always reject me which puts me down. I few inferior and have no idea what to do. I’m always told, don’t be desperate. But how can you not be desperate when you feel like zero, and everyone else around you is in a relationship and you are still getting nowhere. Just makes you more separate doesn’t it.
I know this has been a rant, but it’s probably my ADHD overthinking that’s causing me to waffle.
But I would still like to hear what everyone has to say.
Thanks you

yeah, sadly reminds me of how i've heard of sad stories or cases of some guys, for example, an acquaintence of mine, a guy who never had a girlfriend until his early 30's, not until like 31 or 32, when i hear of stories like that, it fills me with anger and resentment, because its a reminder that, men are obviously more likely than women are to still be single like that.

There isn't much wrong with starting dating in your 30s. As long as he's happy with a person he likes he's won as far as I'm concerned.

why is there nothing wrong with it? thats not normal, he says he's not proud of the fact it took him that long, didn't grow up having a normal youth because of that.
