writes:I'm 25 years old and have been single for 2 years after the end of a 6 year relationship. Being single is fine, infact it's great but I haven't had sex in the last 2 years either and Im worried that my anxiety over this may prevent me from seeing guys. Sex wasn't great when I was in a relationship infact sometimes in was very painful and I have been to the doctors for help with this but I just feel like subconciously it's scaring me off dating. Is 2 years a long time? Am I worrying about nothing? Would the lack of sexual experience put a guy off? Reply to this Question

 Don't worry about what other people think, it's how you feel, if you feel it's been to long and your ready to get back out there, then thats what you need to do. Advice is there for you to way up your options, at the end of the day only YOU can move forward and put into practice what you wish to happen . We are all good at giving advice it's how we learn from that or how we take it that takes us down the next path intended.

 Two years is about 100 weeks too long to go without sex.....
Good luck....

 no man is going to know how long you have gone without sex unless you tell them. A lot of people are anxious about sex or have insecurities. Being with someone who makes you feel comfortable is the key. you will probably find sex is completely different with a new man. good luck!

I was in a similar situation. I wanted to be single for awhile but I had lost my drive a little bit so pursuing meaningless sex wasn't my thing. I realized that when I was wanting to start dating again I felt so out of practice that it was definitely intimidating.
Fortunately I met a person who I guess made me feel comfortable and, as far as I remember, being intimate came back to me just like riding a bike.

HI
it may be concider a long time by many BUT its when your ready to. Its best you wait for the right person to come along than to have meaningless sex to keep in the loop so to speak. And to be honest your next boyfreind will respect you that much more knowing that, he wont be put off. Try not to worry. And in regards to painful sex that could be a number of reason, so go back to your Dr and explain your concerns. It could be that your ex was too big or too rough.
Hope this helps
