Romantic and sexual relationships

barbiegirl

Hi all. I am a newly diagnosed 20 year old woman.

I know that I am still young and "the right person will come along when I least expect it" but I am fed up of having no romantic interests. I have had quite a lot of casual sex, but almost entirely through dating apps where no flirting was particularly necessary. I've never been on a date, held hands with anyone (not that I would be interested in that...don't like palms touching) or had a romantic kiss (only been kissed to initiate sex).

It makes me feel ugly and unlovable. I don't know how to move from this casual sex, which has caused me some trauma and got me into dangerous positions, and go more towards romantic relationships. 

Advice would be appreciated.

  • do you have any quirky interests? Try finding a group centred around said interests. Date within this group. Advantages are:

    1. you will have things in common with people to talk about and build a relationship on (other than just sex)
    2. people will be less inclined to try to get you into bed if they are not serious because they know they can't ghost you with out leaving the group.
    3. if you find a group that is men heavy you will have a lot of male interest as the new single girl, most of the other girls in a men heavy group will already be taken.
