I'm a 25-year-old guy who has never had sex due to years of struggling with anxiety and body image issues. Earlier this month I finally started medication, and around the same time I messaged a 32-year-old woman I had seen singing on Facebook. Despite the 7-year age gap, we clicked instantly and have been talking every day since. We've both opened up about our mental health struggles, and I've shared things with her that I've never told my closest friends or family. She has her own challenges as well, and we've developed a very deep emotional connection in a short amount of time. A week ago we talked about my virginity, and I told her that if I ever decided I was ready to lose it, she would be at the top of the list. She loved that, and since then our conversations have become more flirtatious and intimate. Yesterday we even had phone sex for the first time, which was a completely new experience for me and honestly felt amazing. From the beginning, we agreed that we should meet when we both felt more stable and in a better place mentally, but she's been doing much better recently and earlier today she practically begged me to come see her and "take her from there." I'm still improving and don't feel completely ready yet, but I really want to meet her. I know neither of us can know if this is real until we meet in person, and we've both acknowledged that, but I've developed very strong feelings for her. Has anyone been in a similar situation involving a fast emotional connection, mental health struggles on both sides, a noticeable age gap, concerns about trauma bonding or emotional dependency, or losing their virginity later in life? I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences.
>>34647011i really hope things turn out well for you anon you have no idea how lucky you are to find someone like that most women are horrible. I will say make sure somebody knows where you are and when you'll be there just in case she tries to rob you. It happened to my friend years ago.
Wow that's random. Now go put your dick in her pussy. You're gonna love it. Trust me.What was she singing?
>>34647011Anon, there's really no downside to this. You've met someone you really like and get on with; she feels the same way; stop overthinking it. I lost my virginity at 23 to a woman who was 29; not exactly analogous, I know, but it was lovely. Honestly, just go for it. How much more "ready" do you really think you'll ever be? > I know neither of us can know if this is real until we meet in personThis is true. But all the more reason to meet as soon as possible. The longer you wait, the more time you will have wasted if it doesn't work out irl.
>>34647011>Despite the 7-year age gap, we clicked instantly and have been talking every day sinceignore the retarded age gap discourse onlineits rarely a big deal irl at least if you both met as adults as adults doI lost my virginty in my late 20s to a 19 year old and was with her for several years. To this day its the best relationship I've ever had. We were like best friends. Do not let an age gap be the reason you don't get with somebody unless it makes the person just unattractive to you. Personality and compatibility matter much more. Go fuck her now.
