Yes, you read that right, I am a 22-year-old virgin. By everything I mean I’ve never had sex (the obvious one), I’ve never been in a relationship, never been kissed, and I have never been on a date.

You may find that surprising, and honestly it is starting to bother me that I have literally no experience. I can’t be the only one, right?

I’ll admit, I am an extremely shy person. I get anxiety when I talk to boys.

I had an interesting group of friends in high school, and two best friends, but boys weren’t really the topic of discussion when we got together, which now I realize why we didn’t talk about it.

Right now, as a 22-year-old, I don’t have many opportunities to go out with friends as I would like. My high school friends stopped talking to me in college (no idea why), and I didn’t have the best of luck making close friends in college. So, I have no one.

You’re probably thinking that I should join a dating app because that’s the new way to meet people nowadays, but I’d like to call myself old-fashioned.

I want to meet a guy when I’m out and about in person, but as I said before I have very little opportunities to do the things I want.

I also feel like talking to someone over the internet will just give me more anxiety. It may also be because I have no idea how to flirt, LOL.

On most days I feel happy and completely fine, but on some days I do get sad about this.

What is funny to me though, is the day after I’m sad, I don’t do anything about it. I’m still terrified of putting myself out there.

Honestly, I have no idea when I will finally be ready to meet people and not have anxiety about it.

All I can do is keep going to try to find my purpose in life, and everything will fall into place.

Hello world, I am a recent college graduate currently trying to find my place in the world.

I graduated from University of Wisconsin-Whitewater with a Bachelor’s degree in Broadcast/Print/Web Journalism. I know, it’s a difficult field to get into and I learned that very quickly as I started applying for jobs.

I must have applied for over 50 jobs and I’m either getting a lot of rejection emails or not hearing back from the jobs at all. That is really starting to frustrate me.

As I continue to sit in my house all day, waiting to hear about possible job interviews with the little hope I have left, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about my future.

As I was in college, I had the hopes of becoming a TV news anchor, but since I didn’t do many internships while attending school, I realized I had to change those goals.

When I was not hearing anything from TV and Journalism jobs, I thought I would apply for public relations and social media positions.

Now that I have a new goal of working in social media, I can finally have some direction. But, I’m still not hearing back from those companies.

This is what I was most afraid of as I was graduating college, but it has given me time to think about my future, and honestly I’m terrified of what will happen next for me.
