I think she felt guilty afterwards and spun it.

Worst part about not having a girlfriend is either people thinking you're gay, or saying "women are just people, talk to them like they're people" as if that's good advice or that not having a girlfriend means you have issues talking to women in general and haven't had close female friends.

Welp you're not far from the truth, I never had a close female friend since high school and most of the people I talk to nowadays are from work which are mostly dudes. Might need some liquid courage to do whatever and talk naturally to girls.

I thought this was going to be a new Calvin Harris song.
Your mom roasted you on your birthday. That's actually pretty hilarious. Chin up, bruh. You'll get into the game eventually.

I googled NGSB and this is what I got: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9E296ipb7A
I'm so confused.
OP tell your mom to mind her own business.
Also, don't people stop celebrating birthdays after they're 12?

I don't know, I haven't celebrated birthdays in years and I assume people just got tired of doing it (I did).
no friends since 12.I'm thirty and my parents will still joke occasionally, but I'm sure they are getting worried. There's more of a "no, but seriously" to it now.
Sorry bub, birthdays are great times.
This happens quite a bit

So then the mom changes it to NBSB and he still takes the L.
Then she changes it to NSMB and he goes on YTMND.

So that's how you got that tag
Yeah it's BS. Your parents shouldn't be berating you over this. You don't owe them the life they want for you just because they raised you.
I'm glad my parents haven't bugged me about it. They've said they just want me to be healthy and happy.

I'm the same. Gotten dates but literally everything seems to fizzle and die after, at most, a week or two. Makes me feel like I'm damaged goods or somethings. Just can't get anything that amounts to a relationship going and it hurts.
And yeah, parents can absolutely be instigators of a lot of that heartache, even if they only mean it in jest. My folk give me some backhanded teasing and more direct advice/pushing/berating because my younger siblings have had long term relationships and I seem unable to. Sometimes I really want to tell them to fuck off, but they've done so much for me otherwise it feels awful to even think about doing that.

This seems like a weird acronym that people on forums make up. I doubt your mom was browsing niche forums discussing virginity to such an extent that the people going there created a label to identify themselves that doesn't sound as publicly "sad" as virgin. Maybe it bothers you a bit if you'd jump to this kinda conclusion? When I was a virgin I saw the word virgin EVERYWHERE. Every day of my life I heard it, it was on every tv show, every radio station, song, message board discussion. It was fucking bizarre. Like the world was trying to talk to me. Anyway I just focused on making myself a better person, didn't really seek out anyone but kept myself open to the experience and when the opportunity arose to go date someone I jumped at it and... well.. it led to sex eventually and a relationship. After having sex the word disappeared from almost every medium. Bizarre. There's some kinda word for that phenomenon, virgin wasn't actually being said any more or less, it's just that because it bothered me it stood out in the noise.

Geez I never meant to make this somewhat dark, it was light hearted at most. Yeah it starts to get worrisome after a while but for now enjoy, it's not like we're reaching deadline anytime soon.

As a parent, I'd be pretty worried about my kids if they reach adulthood, much less their mid-20s, without having romantic relationships with other human beings. That shit is pretty core to the human experience.
Unless of course they'd come to me and said they'd figured out that they were asexual or something.

What does the D stand for?
I'll make it to 27 with no girlfriend (or romantic contact of any kind, though i was too shy in high school and too lazy in college, didn't start trying until late 2014) unless something miraculous occurs before the end of the month.
Though i've got a miraculous job interview on my birthday, so i'm getting lucky in other ways.

To all the guys in here waiting so long with getting girlfriends - why wait?
Not trying to put any of you on the spot or make fun of you, just trying to say that I have a handful of friends in the same position, who are sad about it, but who have also seem to have given up. There's no reason to stop trying. If you don't feel confident in how you look, a new haircut, maybe some new clothes and some exercise can make a world of difference (and I say this as a not-pretty guy. You don't have to look like Jeff Goldblum to get a girlfriend, it's all about feeling confident in your own skin).
These days it's perfectly normal to use dating apps/websites to set up dates, and the worst-case scenario with a date is that you have to go out for dinner/whatever with someone you don't click with and never have to see again. If you don't feel confident going on dates, the only thing to improve that feeling is going on more dates.
It's also never a bad thing to ask friends if they might have some single friends who might be a right fit for you, especially if you're a bit older. Your friends know you, and if they're the kind of friends who give you shit because of it they're not really friends.
Again, not trying to make fun of anyone, but nobody deserves to be alone. There's no use in waiting - the longer you wait the harder it is to get back into the game. Think of it like this - even Hitler got himself a girl. Surely you're not as bad as him (

although he did have a pretty ambitious career mapped out, with him trying to be ruler of the world and all, but you catch my drift
This is friend zone criteria.
OP, trust me... you'll be OK with that.
Both being virgins is not all it's cracked up to be.
Or into the game in the first place. I haven't so much as asked a girl out in...11 years? Yeah, the summer before college.
