Is it normal that I am 26 and I never have done anything romanticly?

I don't care about when I was 15-16-17, no one knows what they are doing at that age, but I regret not starting to date when I was 18-19-20-21. I was going threw identity crisis after identity crisis (homosexualy, OCD, paranoia, etc). A germaphobic fear of STDs also played a part in this.

I have met people who are in relationships and even say they are in love and are ready to get married and here is me thinking "WOW, and I never even been kissed or even been on a date". I just feel like I have wasted so much time and while my parents did contribute to my problems negatively, I can't really blame anyone but myself.

Lets say I went on a date and things were going okay, what would they think if they found out about myself "wait, he has never dated, what issues does this guy have, is he some weirdo?", for example.

I don't know what to do now.

    But Ingnoring the Elephants ASS in the room, why should your earlier relationships (Or lack of them) matter?

    my fist gf at 16 (I struggled with girls aswell) didn't mind the fact that I didn't have much experience, just be honest and lighthearted about it- if you act like your trying to hide something she will think it weird

    First rule of the dating game ; Self Honesty

    Sometimes it is unfortunate, but you can only go on from where you are. If you haven't achieved what you would have liked, that's too bad, you can't change it. You missed out on a lot of stuff, that's too bad.

    What you can do now is try to make the best of what you have. If you go on a date, and the other person finds out, that you have not had a romantic life, then you can say that you have had some issues preventing you from finding love.

    Actually, it's almost funny, how you write about how you have had issues, and then go on to worry about people thinking "what issues does this guy have?".
