Is it that much of a turn-off when a man never had a GF?

The only sex I ever had was what I paid for at age 30 after trying to get it the normal way all my life. I paid for it until I was like 34 but after that age it’s been the same as it was in my 20s. I am 39 now and still single simply because I lack experience in real relationships.

should I give up?

Try having a conversation about anything other than sex. Ask things like ...Where are you from? What's your job? Do you have kids? What are your interests? Obviously give her time to answer and actually listen...try to continue the conversation about the specific topic at hand. Let it flow naturally. Don't be creepy. Don't tell her she's beautiful or sexy or anything to Make her feel uncomfortable and at the end of the date...say you had a nice time. You don't need to push it. Just be friendly. Love at first site is very rare. It takes time and effort. But being creeped out by guys that are forward or egotistical will make a woman run a mile. Do not mention how good looking you are!

This thread just screams lack of social skills to me, I think that’s why op is awkward and the way he views women doesn’t help him.

That’s if of course this is a genuine poster.

This thread should be put to bed
Unlike the op who can't get into anyone's bed.
I had my doubts about op validity from page one.
