maybe you're not being approached as much as your friends because you give off the vibe you don't want to be approached. I have a friend who is beautiful, good person, really GF material and she doesn't get approached because she seems inaccessible. I don't know you, so I'm just guessing. If this is the case, watch your body language, try to make it open, smile more, keep eye-contact with guys you like and hopefully they'll approach you. When they do, be nice to them if you like them, smile, laugh at their jokes and just act interested. Hope this helped, good luck!
Really good advice. Guys will often need a bit of encouragement because they're often not sure if you like them or not. If you position yourself so your body language is more open, look around the room (slowly, gracefully) and smile, and generally give off the vibe that you're willing to be approached, this can make a lot of difference. Similarly, when you like the guy, a laugh and smile, and especially a little touch on his arm, lightly, when emphasising a point or laughing at his joke, can go an awfully long way.
If you do like him and he approaches you, telling him a little about yourself, responding to his questions nicely, and especially asking him things about himself, will help move the conversation along and indicate to him that you're interested.
Ditto on Sixpounder's remarks as well - losing your virginity doesn't have to be done because of social pressure or feeling like any less of a person if you don't. I've known plenty of women who lost their virginity at 21 or later, but were glad they waited for a guy they actually liked and trusted, rather than their friends who lost it earlier, but whilst drunk to some guy they never saw again.
Similarly, throwing yourself at a guy in the hopes of losing it, will probably have the opposite effect. Being too aggressive can come across as unattractive to men. Although they may need some encouragement, they also like a challenge, so don't be afraid to show some interest, but then make him chase you a bit.
The truth is, the first time itself won't be that "special" in terms of the physical process. It'll probably hurt or be uncomfortable, and it usually takes until the 3rd or 4th time before you start to really enjoy it. That's why it's worth finding a guy who's willing to wait, be patient, and take things one step at a time and ease you into it.
