23M Virgin guy never been in a relationship yet, kissed, hugged, or dated anyone yet.

I don’t even know where to start and I guess I just need to get this off my chest. I’m 23, and I’ve never been in any relationship yet. I’ve never kissed anyone, never hugged someone the way people talk about, never felt that kind of closeness with anyone. Sometimes it makes me feel invisible, like something is wrong with me, even though I know it shouldn’t. It’s exhausting watching everyone else around me experience these things, and feeling like I’m stuck on the sidelines. I try to tell myself that it’s okay, that things will happen in time, but some days it just hits harder than others. I don’t want pity, I just want to be heard. I want to know that it’s okay to still be figuring things out at my own pace. I’m tired of feeling like I’m falling behind in something that everyone else just seems to get naturally. I don’t even know if this post will get read, but I guess if anyone out there feels the same, you’re not alone. Sometimes life moves slower for some of us, and that’s okay. I’m still hoping, still waiting, and still trying to believe that one day, someone will see me not just for the first time, but in the way I’ve been waiting to be seen all along.
