I'm sixteen and I've never had a crush?

Question

I don't know why, but I love everyone equally. Like my friends and family, it's all the same love. I've never fallen in love, had a romantic or sexual attraction to anyone. I'm sixteen! My sister is eleven and she's had 3 crushes that she told me about. I have NEVER felt anything romantic towards ANYONE. Not even like an actor or a singer. When I see my favorite actor, all I have is admiration and the hope to meet him some day. I'm not like 'heee i wanna have his babies.' 
I feel like I'm impaired or something, like there is something wrong with me. I'm fairly normal, I am considered attractive to most people, because guys do look at me. 
If I ever have the slightest bit of a crush I would seriously tell everyone. Just to prove I'm normal.

Is anyone else like me?

Don't feel pressured.  You'll probably be more capable of truly deep love than most people who had a lot of crushes early on.  I was thirteen when I had my first crush, but for years before that all my friends and every other girl I knew, and most guys, where going on and on and on about their crushes.  By the time I was ten I felt really alienated.  And then, when I was thirteen?  I missed my childhood, with no worries, happiest with my friends, not caring about some dumb guy's attention when I knew there was no logical reason why I should care about being near him.  So don't rush it.

...And that's totally normal! You'll grow up and eventually, EVENTUALLY, meet someone you will like. Believe me. You're not impaired! And the, "heee I wanna have his babies." part was a bit disturbing haha...
