Sexual Health Was I a late bloomer to wait to have sex at 22 to a one night stand? Anyone else a late bloomer?

I've been seeing and reading stories of people talking about late bloomers and doing things later in life and i chose to wait to have sex till i was 22 because i wasn't ready in high school, not educated enough, didn't have the opportunity and guys were really immature and i was also raised in a strict household with my dad believing i should wait for marriage but i finally felt like i wanted to explore my sexuality more and sex so i chose to see what happens and downloaded tinder after my horrible ex boyfriend whom i was dating long distance and let a 18 year old guy fuck me. I dont regret it even tho he doesn't wanna talk to me anymore because he was patient and didn't make me feel uncomfortable and treated me good and it was fun. I also just wanna enjoy sex before my body gets older. Is anyone else a late bloomer?

I find it pathetic when people are quick to assume you're gonna be a certain way and so NEGATIVE. I don't need negative vibes nor do I need to surround myself with negativity. I felt ready in my heart to have sex and i did it so fucken what. I dont need to prove myself to haters or anyone but myself and GOD find the lord or some light and maybe you'll stop judging people and being a hypocrite, also why don't you find something better to do than talk shit on people. It's their life, not yours.

What Girls & Guys Said
10 27There are many people who are late bloomers, even in their 30s and 40s. You are lucky
I was 13
Prove it.
I was 18
Lost mine at 23 to a ons
I am
No sounds about right.
I was kinda one too. Like I had sex for the first time at 15 but then didn't have sex again until I was 24. I have totally been having sex like crazy since lol
Girllll I feel this way but I don’t wanna rush it again you know and set a bad image for myself. The guy I hooked up with wasn’t a boyfriend exactly.
You can only have a bad image if you feel you have one. I learned you miss out on a lot of fun if you live for others lol
At 22, no. I am still a virgin at 36.
My guess is you just haven't done well with dating, or something else
I have autism
You have never considered losing your virginity to a hooker or an escort?
Nope it is illegal where I am.
I believe it's legal in Nevada
I am not traveling to Nevada to lose my virginity.
Cases like this kind of make me mad and depressed a lot
Why?
Because it's a reminder that it's not unheard of or just not uncommon for many people to live celibate lives unfortunately
I'm definitely a late bloomer, I'm still a virgin at 37.
Has an escort ever crossed your mind?
@moviedude714 yes I've seen one once it's just expensive.
You said that you've seen one, but my guess is you didn't go along with it?
@moviedude714 I wasn't up to the task so to speak so still didn't have sex.
I'm going to assume that you've never dated anyone before
@moviedude714 pretty much.
Another depressing reminder of what happens to many people unfortunately
No you just wasn’t ready. The first time the scariest time. Even with someone new.
i was 27
I think I was late since I was 21 when it happened with my girlfriend
I wasn’t waiting, it just never happened even though I would have done it as early as 16 if I had the opportunity
Somebody made a rude comment and it made me emotional. This wasn't toward you hun but hey im not here to judge
Me. I haven’t lost mine yet.
