Is it normal to be thirteen and never dated?

I'm a thirteen year old girl, and have never been on a date, never had a boyfriend, never kissed a boy, barely talk to boys. I mean, I'm straight, and have had crushes and stuff, but that's really it. A lot of my friends date, and have boyfriends they make out with and stuff. I even know a couple girls who have had sex. Like, I would NOT be ready for that, but I still feel like maybe there is something wrong with me that no one likes me? I have good friends, but they are all girls, and I normally have good self confidence. I think I am pretty, I am tall and skinny with curly blonde hair and green eyes, I get straight As and am SUPER nice to people, but no guys are interested in me! Is this normal or really lame at my age?!?!?

    That's completely normal! I personally don't understand why really young people want to date. You should just enjoy the time you have, going out with friends and meeting new people, without the pressure to date. I'm 19 and I've never had a boyfriend. There was a time recently that I thought I was abnormal, but honestly, being older and wiser is so much better for a relationship, because you won't go into it and end up getting hurt when you're younger and more naive, you will have waited, and you will be much better for it. Don't try and rush it. When it's meant to be, it'll happen. :)

    That is perfectly normal! I am totally in the same boat as you. I'm in high school and I'm 14 and I've NEVER dated, but all my friends have. I used to feel bad about it because all my friends were dating and having their first kiss, but I honestly think that dating at that young of an age can seem desperate and immature. Trust me, you will get a lot of respect from people if you don't date yet. My sister was 18 when she had her first boyfriend AND kiss! No one liked me either at your age, but my family and friends always told me I should be a model! So I was very confused that no guys liked me or even talked to me...Still, nobody has asked me out. But I learned that that stuff really doesn't matter yet. So don't worry about it!

    Hope I helped! :)

    Nothing is wrong with you. I'm fifteen years old and I didn't have a boyfriend until I was 14. You're still young and you have a while to go until you should even have to worry about having a boyfriend. Also, just because your friends have boyfriends doesn't mean boys don't like you. I'm sure there are boys who think you're pretty. You just have to put yourself out there. Not in a slutty way but in a good positive way. Be more social with boys, be flirty with a cute boy that you think you may like. But the only thing that should matter is that you have confidence, you have good friends, you have good grades, and you just worry about school. Don't worry about boys, your still young and have a while to go in life.

    Lol your like were like twins! Except I have blue eyes :). I've never gone out with anyone either and there is really no way of telling whether someone already likes you. Try make some guy friends, start at the bottom, don't go straight for the really popular guys. Find out if there are any guys in your neighbourhood. I'm friends with a few guys and i go outside with them all the time. Try going to a sports club, athletic clubs are a good place. Fit guys and something to do :)

    Itl happen eventually

    Yeh its normal.

    thoroughly time-honored. i've got basically ever enjoyed particularly a handful of fellows. heavily, i might communicate approximately boys so little that a lot of people assumed i became into gay. I have been given my first boyfriend 3 months in the past, the day in the previous my sixteenth birthday. so a procedures, my relationship has lasted longer than ninety% of my buddy's relationships, so even inspite of the undeniable fact that they have got had extra boy experience than me, i think of it became into well worth it to await a guy i in my opinion like. i'm no longer saying sixteen is time-honored, or previous, or youthful the two. only dont difficulty approximately it, and at last a sturdy boy will come alongside.

    YES! I'm your age and I've only liked boys, never dated them. There are some girls and boys in my grade who rush into relationships and hook up (make out), but why be worried? I'm sure that once your grade fully matures and you're in high school, you'll have several (or more!) boyfriends. Don't be worried; live life young and free!

    it's fine, i'm about a month away from turning 16 and i've never had a boyfriend. just be patient and wait for the right guy to come along. there's no rush. it's better to wait and have a good experience with your first boyfriend than to go out with some randomer and regret it later

    it is perfectly normal. I was just like you and never had a serious boyfriend until senior year, and had my first kiss at 17. it is better to wait for someone special than to go around swapping saliva with a random boy you don't even like. be patient and the right guy will come along for you. it has nothing to do with how pretty or ugly you are, love finds you when you least expect it. :)
