Virginity isn't real. It's a label used to shame women by its absence and men by its presence, but doesn't say anything useful about a person.
For you, you're still young. Barely done growing, biologically. Your life isn't over, it's just now beginning.
In some aspects I do feel like it is beginning but also the college life is ending and it felt like these were supposed to be my wild years. And while I did experience many things, sexual relations were not one of them. And it feels like I've lost my chance
Bro you're 24 the only way you've lost your chance is if you decide to give up. There's plenty of people who meet someone in their 40s and are happy nonetheless.
My life only gets more wild the longer I live. College is a good time to start having sex but hardly the only time.
I had my first real gf at 27. Needless to say I had given up years ago. A couple of years later she broke my heart and I started to look for someone else even if I thought I would never get over her. I had a couple of hook ups and a crazy person (super fun sex but not someone I would share my life with!) before giving up on love. 2 months after ending it with crazy person I thought that was the end for intimate relations when I found my current gf and we are happy together today with a son.
Every time I found someone, it was when I had given up. Maybe it made me relax more in the company of girls or it was something else, I don't know but I just didn't care if things would work out or not. I think they can sense that.
