Is it normal to be 24 and never had a relationship?

Im 24, male, and never been in a relationship, never even dated a girl. I do like girls, there are 1 or 2 at work I really like, but I could never approach them because im really shy + a bit socially awkward. Im absolutely fine talking to girls when its just about random stuff, having a bit of a joke, etc, but if the conversation was to turn sexual/dating related I would lose my cool and just freak out. I get a horrible feeling in my stomach just thinking about this happening, same goes for if a girl where to ask me out.

What's strange is its got to the point where the idea of me being in a relationship seems weird, and being single feels normal. I want to find someone who I really connect with, who needs me and I need her, but I just feel this is never going to happen for me being like I am. Is this at all common? I honestly think I will die a virgin.

    Paint a face on a helium balloon, call it Charlene and make a nice dinner for the two of you. Ask her questions (like how she copes with her latex allergy) and answer the questions yourself using a high-pitched voice attained from slurping down helium. Tell her that there's static electricity between you whenever you touch. Compliment her curvy shape.

    If things go really well, you can offer her your prick and pop that cherry good and proper.

    You will stop being shy when the right girl comes. I've seen it tons of times. Also, I think you are the kind that might develop a "best friend" first and then end up liking each other. ;) just saying

    Google for the Venusian Arts Book and pay attention to what Mystery has to say

    Back in school there were quite a few girls attracted to me but I was always to shy to do anything about it, I started to pretend to be a confident person and quite quickly I became that person. Confidence and sincerity are really important when trying to hit on someone, I have no problem in asking a girl who I've just met whether they want to have sex because usually they do not expect someone to be so forward and as long as I choose my words carefully then they always take it as a major compliment even if they want to get to know me a little better first. If you believe that a girl likes you then how hard would it be to ask her to a movie, sometimes you've just got to say what the fuck and take some chances.
