Valentines Day got me thinking a lot about the fact that I'm a 28 year old virgin. It doesn't really bother me THAT much, but I just feel embarrassed and ashamed of it at this point and that makes me wonder if I'm just letting society make me guilty about not following social norms. Like I want a relationship not for companionship, but as a social medal. I mean, I'm pretty happy overall. I have a comfortable home and job and lots of friends and I feel really lucky for all that. I'm really comfortable with my life and I know that a relationship would mean sacrificing a lot of my time and adding a bunch of stress to my life and a girlfriend isn't magically going to just make me happier. But at the same time I can't help but feel I'm really missing out on a big part of life and maybe I'm mistaking my indifference towards a relationship with being numb to my desire for companionship.
