Almost 30 Year Old Virgin

[getting_older]

Hello everyone.

I am in need of some advice. I will be turning 30 years old this year and have yet to talk to a woman yet have a date with one. As I get older I realize that I would like nothing more than to meet that special someone that I can spend time with and get to know. I have found myself getting jealous of people around me that have a girlfriend/wife and family. I really thought by the age of 30, I would be well on my way to having the storey book family. As a matter of fact, I was supposed to marry at 30 and have a child by 31. That was part of the "master plan".

I have focused on my career so far in my life and I am very successful in that part of my being. I now want to focus on meeting people and seeing what can happen. I don't really want to push to hard, because as they say if you look too hard, it will never happen. I also feel that I am behind the learning curve a little with the ladies as I have no experience. Most people have been doing this for 10+ years.

I guess what I am looking for are any suggestions on the best way to get in the "game", if you know what I am saying.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

It is never too late.
Here is another adage: A watched pot never boils. We all know this is wrong and so is what you say others say.

Here are a couple of recommendations:
* Inform family members and friends and co-workers that you are available and looking for Ms. Right. It's called networking and the more people you have in your corner the more successful your chances will be of finding someone to date.

* Join one or more clubs or special interest groups or sporting activities in which women also participate.

* If you do not go to church, give this a try and participate in one or more of their activities.

Your game plan is to be seen and noticed. If some woman is also doing this maybe your paths will cross.

Just remember that in your same age bracket it is not reasonable to expect a woman to also be a virgin. They exist and you may even find one. On the other hand, the later a woman gets started, the less likely she is to develop a satisfying sex life.

Otherwise, Doc gives good advice. Interest groups are a great place to start: a church, a civic club, a hobby club. This gives you an opening with common interest. Anything can develop from that.

Follow the advice already posted. Just think of it this way: you've taken a hard work, analytical approach to your career and now it is time to do the same for your personal life. Put yourself in positions to actively seek and meet other people and focus on just getting to know others. The love aspect will come in due time.
