I assume you're under like 20 years old? Maybe even under 18? Literally shrug it off and don't even give it a 2nd thought. It's like dying the first time in a game and only losing 10 seconds of gameplay. It literally doesn't matter whatsoever, you just started the game and are learning how to play.

I'm 21, it's a bit later in the game than you thought. I haven't had much experience with dating and it's definitely holding me back.

I met my wife at 28 and it took us 7 years to get married. You have sooo much time.

Btw at age 21 I had only had 1 absolutely dogshit relationship and was just starting my 2nd dogshit relationship. So you're fine lol. Just keep at it. Try to meet people. Use online dating like tinder or whatever the kids use these days. Hinge? Idk. There's nothing wrong with it.

Unfortunately it's only once or twice a year that I really get an opportunity to take it this far due to my introvertness and social awkwardness. I'm seen as desperate by some people.
