Case 1: “Ever since I told the guy I met the other day that I am a virgin, he never picks my calls,” went my 31-year-old pal Christie.
Case 2: “Why does the guy I’m seeing like me more since I told him I was a virgin?” That one I got from some dating advice blog. The dude suddenly fell in love and kept saying the chick completes her. The chick suddenly freaked out and is contemplating ending the relationship for good.
Some men respect a woman who is a virgin. Well some usually see virgins as a bother. “How do you start teaching a 31-year-old the tricks of the trade? I don’t understand why I should be with a chick that has no sexual experience whatsoever,” went another pal of mine – a dude – on hearing Christie is still a virgin. Someone said being with a virgin is like teaching your secretary to type when you are used to secretaries who can type 75wpm.
Thing is, it’s not easy to have a moral code that is not in sync with majority of the world. Virginity can be a selling point like in Case 2. But much as it is a selling point, is ok to suddenly decide you are in love just because the chick you are dating is a virgin?
I’d understand why one would prefer the ‘untouched’. Its common psychology – better have the new car instead of an old one. But then again the same psychology plays to the double standard – you are that shiny apple at the top of the tree that a guy is scrambling to climb. So what happens after the first bite? Is Case 2 dude sincere?
I have looked at both cases above and to me, both seem to have downsides. Is being a virgin a curse or a blessing in the dating arena? Someone, tell its good side. I aint one so I could be subconsciously justifying why I am not.

I could never be with a virgin. I read some the comments about people shying away because there’s no possibility of sex. For me, that never crossed my mind. I have every confidence that we’ll have sex but not pressed if it doesn’t happen. My fear is takin responsibility for the other’s emotions. That’s too much for me. I remember my first, how clingy and needy and awe-struck I was, that desparation I felt whenever we fought and how I compared my early subsequent boyfriends to him. I was basket case!
I don’t want anyone wanting me in that way. Being that caught up as if the sun rose and set with me. And I’m not being egomaniacal about this. I know how I felt and I wouldn’t wish it on another. I don’t want that responsibility of catering to every emotion a virgin would have for me. And it would happen. I do not believe that a person who loses their virginity can handle the emotional attachment that is created at first. It takes time for the emotions to stabilize and catch up with the rational part of the brain. And what am I to do in the mean time?
I want a partner that has control of himself. I don’t want the other person to always compare me to others just because I was the first. Or to set the standard for every relationship he has later on. That’s too much for me. I’ve had this scenario happen a few times and as soon as I found out, I walked away.
I will not take a man’s virginity. I’d tell him that we may happen the future after he’s experienced life a little or alot more.

For me, it does noit matter if the other person is a virgin.
I am a virgin, and EVERY single woman my age is not. Every woman I know of whom I went to college or high school with has had sex. I want to measure up with them; I do not want to be inferior to them. That is why losing my virginity is so important to me.
