I'm 15 (a sophomore in HS), and I have never really dated anyone. It's not that i don't like guys (i'm a girl if you couldn't tell), because i have in the past, but they just never seem into me. I mean i don't think I'm ugly or anything of that sort, and i have guy friends, so i'm not socially awkward. Am i being very paranoid, or is this common (or both?)?

Continue not being socially awkward, continue to hang out with groups of friends, don't live life in front of a TV or a computer and you will meet tons of people and eventually fall into this little relationship dance everyone is getting in.
LM answered Monday January 12 2009, 10:44 am: I had my first "serious" boyfriend when I was sixteen. And honestly I don't regret that at all. I think it's very common to not date until highschool, or even later than that. It's nice to have a boyfriend, sure, but even when I was single I hung out with all my friends, even couples, and it wasn't awkward at all.
You're better off waiting for someone you want to date, rather than dating the first guy that shows some interest in you, just to have someone holding your hand at the movies.
So to answer your question, you're totally normal; don't worry =]

Seriously09 answered Monday January 12 2009, 9:00 am: Teens these days just have boyfriends and girlfriends just for the fun of, just to say they did this with this person!, not all of them but most of them, the question is not rather or not you start dating but the question is Why do you haver a boyfriend? IM 17 and i have a girlfriend because i can tell her anything and everything, and i can be cool with her and i just feel myself around her, when im with her all my stress is gone, thats why i have a girl, thats something you should think bout.

One of my friends had her first boyfriend when she was 18.
A few of my friends are 19 and still have never had boyfriends.
It's different for everyone. It's nice to feel close to someone and experience dating, but wouldn't it be better to wait for someone worth your time than to rush yourself to be with any willing and good enough guy?
SilentOne answered Monday January 12 2009, 1:08 am: People start dating when they feel comfortable to, and someone they want to date turns up. You can't date if you ain't GOT a date! ;)
I'm 21 and I've dated one person, when I was about 18. It varies by person, and don't let any idiots stereotype you into feeling bad about yourself because it hasn't happened for you yet.
