Summary
Sharon is 38 and never been kissed. This, as she acknowledges, is "a bit weird." As a nurse who loves ballroom dancing, Sharon is smart, funny, and attractive. At the same time, she's deeply religious and has been waiting so long for the perfect man she worries that she'll never find "The One." In this episode of How To!, we bring in one of New York City's finest matchmakers, Lisa Clampitt, for some tough love. Lisa believes Sharon has a lot going for her, but in order to find her first kiss she needs to go on a lot more second dates. This is no fairytale, but sometimes you have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince.

| 0:30.0 | So you reached out to us, Sharon, because there was something that you're struggling with right |
| 0:34.8 | now. Tell me a little bit about that. So I'm 38. I've never had a |
| 0:40.7 | boyfriend, but I would very much love to be married. So just to make sure I sort of understand, |
| 0:47.5 | so you're 38 years old, I think it's safe to say based on what you've told me that you haven't, |
| 0:52.7 | you haven't had sex with a man. |
| 0:55.4 | Have you? |
| 0:56.0 | That's correct. |

| 1:11.7 | A few months ago, I got an email from a listener that caught me a little off guard. The subject line read, 38 and never been kissed. The writer of the email said she |
| 1:19.2 | realized that to most listeners, this is kind of weird. She wrote, and I'm quoting her here, |
| 1:24.4 | it's a bit weird to me too. Listeners, meet Sharon. I'm originally from Michigan. |
| 1:31.3 | I've been down here in Nashville about a year. I'm a nurse over at Vandy. And tell me a little bit |
| 1:36.1 | about your relationship background. It's very short. I went to a large high school and there were lots of cute boys, but I never dated. |
