Advice for a 19 year old

I know this will sound pathetic but I've felt this way for a while and I've only just had the courage to say something about it (albeit anonymously). I'm a 19 year old, male, virgin at University. I went out with a girl on and off period for about three months but she was still in love with her ex-boyfriend so ended the relationship. We split on amicable terms and I was extremely supportive of her after this. I went with her to the Doctors over issues such as self-harming and depression after we broke up and she told me I was the best boyfriend she has had.

Although we may have not been going out for too long I felt a strong connection with her and I was devastated when we broke up. It led me to question myself right to the very basics. Firstly, I started questioning my sexuality I'm 19 years old and never had sex with a girl. We didn't do anything more sexual then kissing and that was because I didn't want to initiate something that she might feel uncomfortable with. I know this sounds very self-pitying but I have also questioned whether there is something wrong with me as an individual and whether I would end up being alone for the rest of my life. I tend to put on a very hard exterior and so my friends aren't aware about any of this because I don't want to worry them.

Help me please.
