Is it odd that I don't want a boyfriend?

You're not weird. Yes, it sure does feel odd when I think about having a boyfriend too. I like having little crushes now and then, though. Being single is wonderful.

You know nothing of the sort - I didn't read all the answer you received here, but the very first one to respond begins - "I'm the same way..." So get off the weird stuff. If you want to change either get into some kind of counseling or start reading some good books - do a search - "How can I not feel odd around males;" click on Amazon and write down the titles of a half dozen books - go to your public library and check a couple out - if they don't make sense to you in the first 25 pages - go get another book.

Do another search "Why do I lose interest in males so soon?" Ditto the above.

But regardless of what you do - get off the weird kick - outside the norm doesn't equate to weird.

Good luck.

lol i was the same as you. When I was around 16-17 i talked to boys but after a short time i would get sick of talking to them :/ i'd lose interest too. I've never had a boyfriend. But now I'm 19 and i've met someone who I love talking to everyday for the past 6-7 months, we're like an unofficial couple/best friends :) so no it's not odd, you just have to wait for the right person to come along. you're still really young :) have fun and it'll happen when the time is right :) Good luck.

By your Pic I see you are a fellow military member. What branch? I'm Navy retired.

I served with SEAL Team 3.

Remember the old adage from "boots"? If the Army/Navy wants you to have a spouse they'll issue you one with your sea bag.

Hey, don't get in a hurry. You are beautiful. You are heroic. You are also young. Wait until you are Ready to have a spouse. Be PICKY!!

My first wife could not handle military life. My deployments etc. SEALs are more difficult to manage.

I am recently widowed. My wife begged me to retire when I was wounded in 2004. I said "NO".

But when she was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2010, I was by her side every minute.

She died in february this year. We were married 20 years.

You can have a marriage with a non military man. It is possible.

Some advice about that is: If you have a security clearance, Do a background check on him. If he has a felony behind him , you WILL lose your clearance and be discharged. Make sure if you intend to continue your career path that HE understands that.

If you marry a fellow member of the military, be prepared to transfer where he is going or get out of the military or be separated during his deployment to B.F.E.

I hope you didn't join the service to get a "Mrs".

Those NEVER work out. My son married one of those and while he was in Iraq she violated Article 86 of the U.C.M.J. and got a big chicken dinner. My son almost lost HIS security clearance.

If you are interested in dating join a .com. I'm a member of Christian Mingles.com. I have met someone there that I am very interested in. I hope it works out.

I'm the same way, I just feel odd and weird around girls, I am sort of interested but not really. Maybe 2% interested. There are lots of people who are not interested and don't want to get involved in a relationship. It is 100% normal.

I'm kind of the same way. I'm almost 18 and have never had a boyfriend. I just get this weird feeling and change my mind and move on. I don't know that it's normal, and it certainly isn't too healthy, but I guess just do what is comfortable for yourself and maybe eventually you'll find someone worth dating.

I know its your opinion of yourself. But I don't think there's anything wrong with you. Many persons prefer to be with/by themselves. I think it shows a high level of self esteem and confidence. What I assume may happen is that, it will take someone SPECTACULAR to "sweep you off your feet" and at that time it'll be worth it. He'll hold your interest for years to come. I don't think you're weird at all, just use this time to be the best "YOU", you can be. All the best.

You're not weird. You're smart & you're not a follower.

Things shouldn't be like they are now (everyone keeps on hopping from one relationship to another; feeling like they're uncomplete without someone else)

You're complete by yourself. you're smart, so you want someone who actually knows how to get your attention.

I say stay the way you are... you're doing it right... if it'll happen, it can happen whenever it'll happen.

yes

yeahhh :o
