Would You Date Someone Who Never Had a Relationship Before?

I was talking with some friends here in London, and almost all of them said they wouldn't. They said if somebody reach late twenties or even thirties and never had boyfriend before, there probably reason behind it. Maybe something wrong, maybe too many red flags.

Honestly that surprised me little bit. Life not same for everybody. Some people stayed in closet for many years. Some only focused on work. Some had really bad anxiety or just never met right person. I don't think no relationship automatically mean something wrong with them.

At same time, I also understand other side. Dating somebody with zero relationship experience probably mean they still learning things most people already learned years ago. Maybe communication, arguments, boundaries, all those relationship stuff.

So I'm curious what other people think.

If somebody told you they never had boyfriend before, would that actually make you less interested? Or you really wouldn't care at all?
