But one comedian has openly shared her experiences of remaining a virgin at the age of 36.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"35-Year-Old Virgin Gets Real About Being Ghosted While Dating Online\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0odwoRoNJDU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Not only that, Sonali Chandra has kissed only five men in her entire life.<br \/>\nLike many others, this US-born stand-up comedian was raised in a conservative household where sex was considered a sacred act within marriage.<\/p>\n<p>However, it has now reached a point where even her family is encouraging her to take the plunge.<\/p>\n<p>But Chandra is determined to only get intimate with a man who commits to a long-term relationship, and as you might expect, this has presented its own challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The business manager shared her story with Truly TV: \u201cThe first time I ever told a guy that I\u2019m still a virgin was when I was 26.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thoughtnova.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/resize-2023-09-22T163528.734.jpeg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>!The guy who was my first kiss, my first actual relationship, he was shocked. His jaw dropped and he asked if I was gonna be a virgin for eternity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On her 27th birthday, she came to the realization that her boyfriend had, in fact, ghosted her after their conversation \u2013 a pattern that, regrettably, started to recur.<\/p>\n<p>Chandra mentioned: \u201cWhenever these guys have ghosted me I have gone through emotional hell. It\u2019s heart-wrenching and makes me think that guys only think I\u2019m good for sex.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI consider sex sacred and special. In fact, I don\u2019t even like the word \u2018sex\u2019, I prefer \u2018making love\u2019. I\u2019ll be ready when I have a ring from \u2018the one\u2019,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>In a prior interview, the comedian mentioned that she has been in three serious relationships and has dated a total of nine men.<\/p>\n<p>However, her \u201cstrict upbringing\u201d significantly influenced her dating life because she \u201cwas not allowed to socialize and dating was a big no-no.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDating is a life skill, and I was forbidden from developing that skill in my teenage and college years,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p>Chandra utilizes dating apps and has even made appearances on TV dating shows. However, she remains steadfast in her decision to decline an arranged marriage.<\/p>\n<p>She remarked: \u201cI don\u2019t want my parents deciding who I have sex with, ew, we don\u2019t talk about that stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are many things in life that don\u2019t require haste, like responding to that random guy from high school who messaged us on Facebook three weeks ago&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3288,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3287","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
