Yes. We're both Homo Sapiens Sapiens.

I thought that was the reason but now I know that it's not. It's merely that no one is interested in me.

Trying doesn't work. Not trying doesn't work.

If I do nothing I am ignored. If I do something I am rejected.

1. Can't afford it.

3. Bad for my illness.

4. Can't on my medication.

EDIT: No one gives me a chance. I feel like just saying "Fuck the world" and giving up.

Is there anything I can take to make me frigid?

I don't know, man. Just saying "no one's interested in me" doesn't really get us any closer to being able to provide solutions. The best response to that is "make yourself interesting," but that does you no good.

Why do you think women aren't interested in you?

A friend once proposed this personal ad: "Looking for one more chance to prove I'm totally incapable of intimacy with another human being. Also, 58 Chevy for sale."

He wasn't serious but something like that could work. Maybe: "Free to good home, my cherry. Have had it to myself for 20 plus years and just feel it is time to move on. Please take care of it!"

Maybe you guys should get out and actually do something. Do you have a hobby which is performed with out people? A social situation outside of the internet that is not going to bars?

Even if you are ugly, (I don't know if you are or not) there will be someone out there that is interested in you. You have to make an effort to go out and meet people. Make friends. Widen your social circle and the world will open up to you.

I'm really popular me.

I think you have to try harder. You will be rejected many times, but you only need to succeed a few times. Don't think in terms of "I should already have done this", think in terms of "I need to start doing it now if I ever hope to get this done in the next 10 years".

Maybe I shouldn't be taking this whole 'shed the V-word' shtick personally

And gents... the moment you can afford yourself a trip to Denton, TX: you have yourself a shot at a nonhorrible first sexual experience.

You can even take Virgin Airlines!

Deep breath, and then relax. V word is only what society makes it. Work on getting out there, meet people, have counselling if your shy and have a social phobia. From this post it seems you might have other things to work on first.

Just my two cents, but I was a late bloomer too, so maybe it's easy looking back.

The impression I get from your posts is that you lack confidence. And confidence is probably 99% of what will get a guy laid. There's no way around it other than changing your mindset. As Chuck said, get out there and give it a shot. You may strike out miserably, but you'll learn that failing isn't the end of the world and you'll begin to build confidence. At least in part, you'll build it because you'll realize that a lot of people lack confidence.
