Never had a boyfriend, embarrassed in front of my parents?

Question

I'm 15 and I've never had a boyfriend. I know a lot of people my age who have never had boyfriends either , but it seems like my parents think that everyone my age has s*x or whatever.. idk why.. It's embarrassing though. My parents friends daughters have boyfriends and stuff and now it seems like I'm "supposed" to have one too. I don't want them to think I'm a loner. :P I mean, I have a lot of friends , just no boyfriend. And I've never talked about guys with my parents, I think all three of us would be very embarrassed haha. But do you think I'm just being stupid or do you think parents want their kids to have bfs/gfs ? Thanks :)

Answer 1

If I was your Mother I would be glad you did not have a boyfriend. That leaves more room for schoolwork.

Answer 2

well,they shurely will be glad when you tell them that you found a very nice sweet guy to hang out with,o course,if it makes you happy ...go ahead,get a bf,and enjoy life...

Answer 3

There will be  a time in your life when you feel pressure to be married and have kids to.  Many people fall to this pressure and have awful marriages because they took the first person they found.  Many people have kids too to ward off the pressures of life even though they aren't ready financial or socially.  

The best thing you could ever do is to accept yourself single.  Your only 15 so your real young anyways.  But if you can be ok with it knowing that you find many lovers along the way and eventually meet the right person then you will see that your parents and other are wrong about this.  Not wrong to pressure (thats wrong too) but they are wrong in the view that you should be with someone at anytime.  Your allowed to be single and your not weird or wrong becuase of it but youll have to keep in mind that youll be different....i hope thats ok.

But youll never find yourself sticking to an abusive relationship because you fear being alone.  And you'll never be pressured into s*x when your not ready. And you'll always attract confident respecting guys.  All because your ok with who you are and are patient to find someone whos right
