I am 22 years old and never had a girlfriend.

Title. Guys I am 22 years old and never ever I had a girlfriend in my life. Precovid I was relatively fit as I used to go for martial arts practice and used to get some female attention also but I never dated anyone. Precovid my social skills was much better and I had a large friend circle whom I hangout with but after COVID my social skills went to 0. When COVID lockdown was lifted I joined a badminton class but due to my awkwardness and poor social skills people over there distanced from me. Right now I have no friend. I have no girlfriend. Right now I am preparing for masters entrance exams. My question is ,is it too late to make a girlfriend because I will not go for arrange marriage route. Please help me guys.

Bruv. There is nothing to help you about man.

1 - you are preparing for masters happily and nothing is/should change that.

2- you are possibly and relatively fit compared to AT LEAST 80% of this community.

3- you are 22. Life according to me doesn't start till you take a home loan 😂

4- media(especially western) tells us that we should lose our virginity asap which is absolute bullshit. (Remember...your virginity your rules 😂)

I am a middle-aged man who is unmarried and happy. All I want to tell you is be confident about yourself. Take risks. Make mistakes. Learn from it. Enjoy all moments. Achieve those fucking achievements. A worthy and amazing woman who is an equal and kick-ass partner will be in your life before you know it. Just be the best version of yourself everyday....be better than the previous day.

Go fucking kick-ass in life brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol dude. Take a chill pill.

I didn’t have my first girlfriend till almost 30 ( 4 months short of 29). Got married to the same person at 31.

When things are meant to be, they will happen. Focus on your career at 22 and forget about all this crap.

Are you an introvert or extrovert?

I’d like to say Extrovert - but it’s variable. It’s been by age. In undergrad and grad schools - extrovert for sure. That annoying kid who’d be in any and all events and be known to loads of circles and all.

Older I got, lesser is my inclination to socialize. Maybe around 27/28 (coincidentally same time as lockdowns) I gave up trying to socialize randomly.

No it's not too late folks who are 26-30 years old are also asking the same questions like how to find love of life etc. So focus on your entrance exam and all the best for the exams

Some practical things you can do.

  1. Travel after your exams- Go for solo trips and stay in hostels. It is very important to initiate conversation without having any intention.

Just talk how you would talk to a guy, simple things and take it natural. Don't rush to make her your girlfriend, and don't expect that to happen too.

You are amazing and there will be always be some quality which someone else will vibe with.

This will help a lot.

  1. Build confidence

Go to the gym, not to get six pack but to feel better about yourself.

Take care of your mind too, meditate if possible.

  1. Seek help

If you think the situation is too overwhelming, seek professional help through any of the online consultations since it involves minimum social interaction.

  1. Disconnect

Disappear for a while. Deactivate your socials, you'll realise a lot of insecurities are generated by what you see around.

Take care :)

Bro 18 saal ke umar me 2 bandi ne katke jati to samajh ata teri life kinti better hai unse. There's lot of life left bro. I'm also 23, just started earning. Making myself and my parents proud with work. It's much better feeling that messaging some khana khaya ki nhi. Focus on life, love will eventually come up.

Late and early is relative to your goals in life but 22 is definitely not too late by any standards.
My 2 cents: whichever group activity you join (badminton, etc) to rebuild your social circle, don’t try too hard to fit in or make an impression. It generally leads to repulsion . If you are playing badminton, focus entirely on the game and on having a good time. If you are hanging out in a group then be your natural self and have fun. By and large, being natural gets you more stable attention than pushing too hard. It is easier said than done. But once you are comfortable with yourself and your current state, it will be easy.

Whatever bro but one thing is sure that you will never get love when you are actually looking for it , it's something which will happen anytime whenever you will not looking for it. It's like whenever you leave something, you start attracting those things
