38/m, after being a shut-in until basically my early 30s, I finally lost my virginity 2 years ago), but haven't had sex since. I've worked extremely hard to build out a social circle over the past 6 years, and I finally have friends to do basically anything with. Unfortunately, I'm still not great with women.

Still making elementary mistakes: fell for a bombshell party girl last year, friendzoned myself like a doofus, tried to go no-contact, eventually took her out on a date, made out but no 2nd date. She's dating someone else now and I just found out, so I'm suffering from some serious oneitis to top it off.

I would really like to go through a bit of a fuckboy stage where I can experience different women and see what I really like, but I'm not exactly the super outgoing extroverted type, and have a hard time being the life of the party (much more intellectual and contemplative). Anyone have any success as more of an introverted late bloomer?
