What did I miss out on?

Question

I didn't have a girlfriend until I was nineteen (which people made fun of me for), and people keep telling me I "missed out" on a lot of things because of it...what did I "miss out" on?

Answer 1

If you ask me, you missed out on a lot of anxiety, peer pressure (although I'm sure you had that!), fear, making mistakes....

You also missed out on the idea of puppy love that will last forever.  

To be honest, I think you made the right choice.  I still remember my first love...I was 17, so I guess I'm really not the right person to ask, now that I think of it...

Answer 2

drama, drama, and more drama? possible child at this point?

IDK I can't think of anything good! lol

Answer 3

i have never had a GF... but im only 15.....

from friends and bestfreind around my age untill like 18.... girls do it, alot, to know what its like, and its new to them and they like it...they do it alot more at this age than any other.

thats probly what they mean

Answer 4

Nothing, just time filling relationships

your friends are just playing

the relationships you would have when you were, say, 15 would be distinctly different than that which you have now

but by not having them, you have missed nothing, you won't be affected at all.

It also means you got to enjoy being single for so much longer =D

Answer 5

a lot of headaches and heartaches

Answer 6

You have no way of knowing and its not important. Focus on now and the future

Answer 7

well, im 15, so i guess i could try to help you out ... i know friends who are older and they don't seem to mind the idea of either having/not having a significant other in their youth. having a boyfriend, or even a crush, usually gets you teased anyway!

im not so much into the whole 'dating' idea. waiting until you're older seems like a good idea to me!! some of my friends already have boyfriends, and they love to yak on and on about it -__-" kind of annoying, if you catch my drift.

but also, i see lots of kids around my age that have significant others, and they seem very intimate even though its in public. kids are really growing up, an i've got to agree about the heart ache factor. a lot of kids just worry and worry about it, and heaps of my friends have started 'dieting'. crazy love.

from what i can see, you havent missed out on many good things, but it is an irreplaceable, and not very significant thing.

it's never too late to love someone c[=

good luck!!

Answer 8

you didn't miss out on much, except insecure girlfriends, heartbreak, and awkward dates with mommy or daddy having to pick you up at starbucks. you're never to old to fall in love. and it's always healthier when you approach it with maturity. and maturity grows with age (at least for most people =). seriously, i can't think of one person who said "i should have dated more in high school" those are times most people forget.

Answer 9

really nothing

i didnt get a gf till im 17 and i didnt miss much

so dont worry about

you got your entire life ahead of you

so seriously dont worry

Answer 10

You missed out on petty fights, the silent treatment, and ultimate betrayal from your one and only.  Actually, you did pretty well for yourself staying out of the line of fire.  Think about it, how many people are still married to their girlfriend from their early teen years?

Answer 11

um nothing.......you got to hang out with your buds and have  a good time, get all that out of your system...you'll probably make a great boyfriend now because you dont need to hang with them as much and you'll wanna hang out with her...

you missed out on nothing
