Date a girl now at your age and watch as someone else marry her in less than two years. Date when you are ready to marry

It's possible, it is the way you're raised, you living location and environment. no friend/ brother to teach you .


but my advice is this.....

start making female friend from your school / church


move with some guys but not notorious guys

a responsible one can teach you what you don't know ...


not your fault, you don't just know how

Throughout my teenage years I never indulged in anything that is remotely considered as youthful exuberances. No parties.. No hangouts.. No rebellion.. No fun.. No girls.

I'm what you'll consider as a pretty decent kid. Been always studious and devote. I felt those stuff were distractions and a waste of time. so I was always buried in books and church activities.

I thought being uptight and serious would make me "successful" . Unfortunately.... It appears I might have been wrong. I see my friends who practically live in orgies and revelries enjoy life and still have things work fine for them. So I guess screw seriousness!

Recently I've been having a strange feeling of emptiness. I read up some books and most suggested that lack of love/companionship can be a major reason for feelings of emptiness.

It then dawned on me that I've never asked a girl out in my entire life. I've never dated. I never thought it was a big deal and I pretty enjoy my company alone. I assumed I'll get a girl when am ready for marriage. But hey... I don't even know if I'll be alive that long (tomorrow isn't guaranteed).

I've recently been feeling very lonely .. do you think it's a problem I've never experienced relationship with a girl at my age? I'll be 23 next year.

I don't care about intimacy cus you can easily get that without dating no body.

Constructive suggestions please
Nothing is wrong with you

U seem like a nice guy, I think u need that female companion, even if u don't date her, I think u need to have a close female friend and also improve on ur activities like hanging out with ur friends more. Just improve ur social life. But don't abandon ur studies too.

Well you need to look deep and ask yourself the question: who are you and what do you want. In the end when you look back and have regrets or not you will only have yourself to blame or praise not others, whatever the case may be
Re: At 22 I've Never Had A Girlfriend. Is This A Problem? by Nobody: 10:05pm On Dec 25, 2017
I'm just like you,but I don't feel lonely,being serious and focusing on the most important things in life pays in the long run,you may not necessarily see it too soon but it's very much rewarding.

I can't say I haven't had a crush before,but at a certain point in my life I discovered it was just a big waste of time.Put all your energy in improving yourself,and stop prioritizing having the so-called "healthy" social life.

As long as I'm not up to the marriage age,I don't give a damn about relationships.I find happiness in being successful and achieving great feats,not something so irrelevant to me at this age.

Bro seriously u don't have any problem, we are in the same shoe the only difference is that I have many female friends I relate with. The worst thing is to look down on urself. Feel free to relate with anybody. Sometime when I feel lonely I will go to environment of informal people just to make myself happy for a while,i laugh and go back to my home. I don't worry about anything I just focus on my goal and pray to God. Just focus and don't get distracted when the time come u will surely have ur wife. 116... Believe. That's my motto.

During my days in the University at FUTO, I was exactly like you, I always read programming books. Today, I work with one of the leading ISP providers, I am an Android and IOS engineer and also a member of the Facebook team. I am 26 yrs old too. so my brother, be successful at what you do, women would come later.

I don't regret my actions now.

I'm also like you bro, currently in 400L, I love coding, in fact am a web developer, and I aspire for more when I graduate.

I decided to venture into programming during my 200 level, funny enough, I could spend my feeding money buying books, although my GPA dropped from a 2.1 to a 2.2, i was able to simultaneously learn Java, Php, IOS and Android Development and also finish with a 2.1. So, always stay positive and work hard, don't let anyone tell you, you cannot do something.

Having worked with various top IT companies, Here are some key areas you need to learn
Arrays, Computation Time, Functions and return types, JSON APIs, Database Nominalization, Designs (Web/Mobile). Cheers. if you need any advice. Let me know.
