Is it normal to be a 33 year old virgin?

no its not normal. but it is very respectable. and abnormaly it is a turn on for me. not just virginity but being that respectable. it is very admirable and keep up the good work.

of course it's normal to save it for the right time. it doesn't matter how old you are.

It is normal---you have self respect, unfortunately that is much less common for upcoming generations.

It's normal, but be sure you aren't just sitting at home all the time. Get out and socialize :)

Do what feels good for yourself because if it wasnt the right person, youll have to pay the consequences by yourself. It is ok to wait, i believe that if a person truly cares about you, he wouldnt care if you were a 40 yo virgin. Take your time before you decide to have sex with someone or not, if its "the right one", he will wait.

Like the other people here said, it's not normal, as in, it's not really what most people do...but most people follow pointless trends, and do other stupid things that they have no good reason to be doing, but that doesn't make not doing these things bad.

Same with sex. You don't want to do it, don't do it. There's no reason why you should be obligated to just to be like everyone else.

well im a 17 yr old guy and want to stay virgin until I get married. when a person has sex he/she gives a part of himself/herself to the other person, its like gluing two sheets. so if u try to detach them it´ll leave damage to both sheets. Thats what sex is unless u are a person that has lost own self respect and dont value urself. JUST KEEP STRONG because staying virgin is not that easy but strust me that it´ll be worth. BTW: im not like really religious so one doesnt need to be religious to know whats right. oh and only because one is a virgin doesnt mean that one should stop socializing so go out and meet the one u love

It's rare, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

If you're unhappy with your situation, then change it, if you are happy, then don't. It's that simple. Just make sure it's something YOU want. Not your friends, not your family, not your co-workers. Only stupid people follow the crowd like a damn sheep, and you don't appear to be stupid.

It isn't strictly speaking "the norm" but that DOESN'T mean that you are an unusual person because you are far from it. Everybody is different and I highly respect your descision, AND your courage to come put here and tell the world how it is, kudos to you my friend. I hope your right man comes along and takes your heart away and gives you his in return because you deserve it love. In the meantime, make sure you miss no opportunities to meet new people; when invited out - go out, even if you're not quite feeling up for it, (with the exception of severities). This eliminates the chance of later thinking "I haven't tried" or getting yourself down and feeling lonely. The human body responds healthily to chemicals released during social interaction - these same chemicals are actually proven to keep you sane and are the reason why social interaction should be a part of a healthy lifestyle. Just keep your head high and take the initiative. Don't wait for him to fall from the sky; - make it happen, go places and meet new people and one day you will find your man - and sooner than you think. Good luck to you though, really. All the best!

It's normal. Just don't be afraid of sex. But by all means do respect yourself and the act of sex and wait til you found someone you respect and care for and feels the same for you...it doesn't have to be your "true love" but don't just go lose it someone who just wants to use you for triggering a chemical response in their body because you feel you might be missing out. You are still young and have plenty of time for tons of sex in your life...but I do hope you are not waiting around for someone "perfect" because no one is really perfect...including yourself. We are all flawed beings to certain extents and you should respect those aspects about yourself and those apsects in others too...as long as you/they are working to grow and evolve that is all that matters in the end. So I recommend loving/appreciating yourself to the fullest as that makes you a magnet for attracting others who will do the same! When you found someone and feel ready, you will be and will avoid all the baggage that others have because they rushed into it! Just don't fall for the trap of feeling you are "missing out." Just live and love life right now and when it happens it happens. Peace!

No its not most people lose it late teens early twenties, that said it does not make it wrong you made a lifestyle choice and your sticking to it. So good for you.

yea sure its normal. Never have sex with someone you dont love

It's normal

it probably isnt normal, but that doesn't mean that its bad

you are 33 years old and are missing out big time!!!!! i know you want to wait but you never know who mr right is until all this happens. you need to get it in girl and be happy.

Don't be so picky ... Or u ll end up virgin all ur life .. Me too i'm 22 virgin waiting till marriage but hell no i'm not gonna wait another 11 years .. When i finish college i'm gonna find a husband any guy with any respectful job ( legal ) and a nice personality (not violent nd an ass ) .. Nd there r many like that so u too go hunt

I'm still a virgin only because I'm too shy to talk to guys and when a guy I'm not interested in shows interest in me I find it physically disgusting.

I think that whatever lifestyle you choose is normal. Your thoughts behind your lifestyle are completely logical. If you were asexual, that would be normal, too. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin, at any age. I was raped at 13, and I'm 31 now, and I still wish every day I were still a virgin.

Virginity is NOT dignity. It's lack of OPPORTUNITY.

imo sex is one of the most enjoyable aspects of a relationship. it feels good and depending on how you do it it can be just as intimate as erotic. i dont think its okay to have slept with 16 guys by the time you graduate but cuttin loose and sharing it with someone i highly reccomend.

I think waiting for the right person is normal but dont leave it too long or you will turn into the "40 year old virgin"

seeing how it aint been used in 33 years u might wanna lube it uppp

ull never find the 'right' person if u carry on waitin...leive ur life.im not saying go fuck everyone u c but i mean find someone decent enuff and let him pop dat cherry luv;) once u do it u will not want to stop

I believe that you're not that attractive... JUST KIDDING! Seriously I'm not attractive to most people because I'm... an other gender haha a little humor to lighten up my crude humor that I hope nobody flags me for (Thanks!) I'm 47 turning 48 in about 2 months and I was a virgin until I was exactly 33 so now your 35. All I can ask is if your v-card is still sticking to the inside of your wallet haha have a laugh about your INNOCENCE [that many desire to have back its not an opportunity to eff up your life like s unplanned pregnancy when abortion isn't in your beliefs (religious or not, I believe it depends on the certain situation of the 2 individuals [sometimes 1 = rape cases] who are about to bring this human being without he/her asking to be here.] What some people need to understand that they aren't the most attractive people [referring to me, myself and I here] and [I] can't have sex with anyone, NO MATTER other how bad my other head wanted too, so yes it is normal for some to be a virgin until the age of 33. I know I sound really harsh, but once I realized and ACCEPTED this fact, I got laid and rather quick [literally and literally haha.] Yes it took me about 23 years to figure that out, but I'm very hard headed and over-thought [the actually killer of my self-esteem] a lot things about how I would suck after I turned 18 and kept getting older around women who were lost their virginity at 13 [exaggeration but true for some and just read the girls comment about rape and I'M SORRY IF I OFFENDED YOU OR ANYONE ELSE ABOUT MY COMPLETE OPINIONATED REPLY], etc. So it all makes sense. DON'T get your self esteem all low because of my harsh opinions. If women are into you then you must be damn good looking because women know true beauty... well most do. Don't mop about it and ruin your social life like many have stated over 2 years ago above. The one and only way your gonna get laid is if you put yourself out there ready to be torn up by the harsh world we love to live in. Just remember that if any key can open a lock then it's a master key or just a very sh*tty lock... I believe the brand name is SLUT Inc. I hope the person [male or female] who asked the question reads my rather long reply to the question that was answered a long time ago and reply to my question: are you still a virgin at the age of 35? If they answer is no then I know your having fun doing it over and over again. It never gets old even when your old like my almost 48 year old wrinkled... haha

if youre straight and are fairly attractive[to women] u should be trying to go out and get some. your determination of thinking youre the prize acually attracts women sometimes. to become a real man try to look up carloz zuma and listen to his courses.
