Hiring an escort to lose my virginity on my 18th. Are these good reasons to do so?

Actually, while I wouldn't want to know if my son had done this (he's 19 and a virgin as far as I know) I think it makes sense for someone who has thought it through as much as you have. Get it over with. Tell them even that you are a virgin and you want someone who will be good to you. They can't, of course, talk about specifics before they get there. Be very attentive to how they want you to do things -- put the money in an envelope on the nightstand, etc., and do what they say in that regard. Once you're together and get comfortable, it will probably be quite nice.

Going forward, I would urge you to get the book, "The Art of Seduction" by Robert Greene. It will help you overcome your lack of confidence and learn about human nature so that you can get girls. Don't go bragging on Twitter about supposed one night stands. It will seem hollow and pathetic. I see what you're thinking, but it's misguided. If you earn enough money, you might hire escorts once and again just to learn more about sex -- think of it as sex education and therapy for your confidence.

That along with Robert Greene will help you get a real girlfriend someday, no matter what you look like or how bad you think it is for you, physically. I like how you said, "I was made so different from everyone else." It's a step on the road to self-acceptance, which will lead to self-confidence. I wish you'd stop thinking of yourself as a social abomination. No matter how you look, if you can change your attitude and paradigm, you can find the people who will value you at any age.
