I’m a 35-year-old virgin who’s considering hiring an escort
DEAR ABBY: I am a 35-year-old woman who’s never been in any sort of relationship with a man and, yes, I’m a virgin. For some reason, I am surrounded by women at school and at work. The one time I tried dating a colleague, it turned into the office romance from hell. I was publicly rejected, and he ended up with another female colleague. Since then, there has been — nothing.
I’m resigned to not being in a relationship, but at this point, I want to stop being a virgin. I’m considering hiring an escort to help me with my issue in a last-ditch attempt to experience what it’s like. I’m tired of waiting for that one man who will probably never show. Should I go ahead with my escort plan or keep waiting aimlessly like an idiot? — ALONE AND CONFUSED IN NEW YORK
