Well, should OP had asked "What general advice do you have for someone in their 20's I might have taken studies and their data into account."

My advice to myself in my 20's to avoid dating is based out of how much I've fucked up, having no mentorship and poor instincts in that area. If it helps understanding.

It's all about perspective. For example, if I introduced you to somebody who painfully regretted not dating in his 20s out of, say, fear of rejection or relationship failure, you might come to see your past dating experiences in a kinder if not more positive light.

That sounds terribly contrived. Eventually most everyone musters up the courage to ask someone out. Petrification by fear is quite the medical condition.

Yep! If the thread was "advice for 20-somethings" I wouldn't have even clicked.

Advice to your own younger self is much more interesting, though.
