A concerned woman has asked for advice after starting a new relationship at the age of 44, and fearing her partner will not understand why she is still a virgin at the age of 44.
The woman wrote to Agony Aunt Fiona Caine to ask for advice.
She wrote: "I am embarrassed to tell you that at 44, I am still a virgin. All my energy has gone into looking after my mother, who was ill for much of her later life, and my career. I have been successful but it came at the cost of any sort of love life.
