35. You want the truth? You probably don't want to know from me but here goes...

May 2013

I'm 31 and never even kissed a girl, let alone sex. Actually more than that I've never even held hands. Why? It's not because I have a bad personality or am ugly. I've put on more than a pound or two over the years due to depression and self loathing but I still look fairly handsome and I've been told I look quite striking when I've been thinner. I also have a fairly awesome personality as attested to by the few friends I have. I get along with everyone just about and have a great sense of humour. No the issue is life long social anxiety, depression etc...

Anyway what am I looking for? Well assuming that I could actually find someone? All of the above as others have said. In the short term I would be lying if sex wasn't near the top of my list, 31 years without romantic companionship makes one long for it. And porn isn't a good substitute. But in the longer run I want a life companion. Not necessarily marriage and I'm really not interested in children but more than a FWB. I want someone I can truly share my interests with, tell stories to, talk about the news, current events, debate with, just have fun with.

But anyway that's all wishful thinking at this point.
