Is it normal to not be dating ?
Everyone seems to be dating but me.
I'm 22 and I haven't had a boyfriend yet. I've liked guys of course and I'd been too shy to even talk to them, now if I feel comfortable I will talk to them, check them out. There was a couple of lads I liked (not at the same time;) ) and they didnt like me back. There was a guy I went on 3 dates with but it was weird as my mum got overly involved and it upset me a lot (long story) basically I'd never dated before he was a lot older I'd never put myself out there and my mum worried a lot. And so I worried, she wanted me to have someone and I simply wasnt ready so she made me feel awful and unhuman so I let this guy take me out. I didn't like him at all, I knew straight away.
And then there was someone else who asked me out and then started ignoring me.
Thing is I'm shy and I hate change. I want to still be a kid, but I want kids myself one day. Never kissed or anything. And I feel it'll never happen cause I haven't dated. I just thought it would happen when I'm attracted to someone and they me. I'm still learning how to talk to people and make conversation. I only just started going out clubbing a few weeks ago. I'm growing slowly but at my own pace.
But what If I can never get out of it? I need to feel really comfortable around someone to do anything :( I'm weird.
But my mother makes it so hard. I feel awful as I've never been intimate with someone. When the time comes will it feel right ? Cause right now it's like ah so shy and nervous.
My cousin is 25 and he hasn't had a girlfriend, he's had plenty of one night stands but yeah.
Is it normal?
