Is it normal that i have not been kissed or in a relationship and i'm 17?

I have never been kissed or in a relationship is that normal? Everyone else I know has. I feel like the late bloomer in my group of friends.

    Are you me?
    No, but seriously; I'm the same. I don't think it matters though.

    It's normal, love. What is the rush? You still have your whole life ahead. Seriously, worry about your future not your love life.

    Aww, don't worry! I have a few friends in the same situation. Just let it happen naturally, you shouldn't feel pressured into doing anything you aren't ready for, especially just because everyone else is doing it!

        Happy to help, and welcome to IIN:D!

        I know it probably feels like everyone around you is having sex and countless relationships, but you're really not that uncommon:)

    Not much for your confidence in the future. I never rushed either. My thoughts would tell me that this person isin't special to me, so I would never ever show any effort. Ahh so many sluts I dissed by never showing attention

    hey, I didn't have my first real kiss until I was 17. Now I'm 20, and I can say that I have still never been in a relationship. I wouldn't worry if I were you--a few of my closest friends have never been in one either. All that it means is that when you do finally get into a relationship, it will have been well worth waiting for. I'm still waiting :) nothing you can do about it but wait for it to drop into your lap.

    If you ask me anythings normal in this stuff, anything can happen . We're all different there's no manual or time frame . Spose it feels a bit weird to you though if they're all in stuff but ohwell you are who you are , anyone else has nothin to do with that.

    It really doesn't matter. I know what it's like to be completely different when all you so desperately want is to fit in. Just hang in there. You'll be alright =]

    Age 19, didn't get my first kiss until just this year and I've never been in a relationship. I'll be 20 in September. Go figures!

    I've heard stories were people haven't been in any kind of relationship until their late teens. You should talk to a lot of people on this site. There's lots of them witht he same sitch.

    I always took the idea of letting love find me. I didn't have my first girlfriend till I was 18 (and am still with her btw). I could say that I'm a lot happier that I waited instead of jumping into the first relationship that I could have been in. My first time was with someone I seriously care about.
