I'm 22, a virgin, and have never dated. I spent my childhood, teenage years and three years of college inside playing computer games. This is my senior year in college. I'm shaping up and over the summer lost ~50 pounds and cut my hair. I've also acquired a fashion sense.

But my concern is that I can't make up for lost time and that, socially, I'm still a kid. People in my class are dating and some getting engaged(!). I've also heard that people tend to marry the person they dated their senior year of college.

Clearly I can't/won't socialize with people who themselves are developing socially; namely, teenagers. Will I be able to properly associate, romantically and otherwise, with people my own age but far beyond my years in terms of social ability, or am I doomed to be permanently socially retarded? If so, how can I catch up without appearing as a creep, weirdo or immature?
