Is it normal that i don't masturbate?

hi

i'm turning 18 in a few months ...
and i do not masturbate, i'm just not attracted by it
i tried, but never went to the end, it just annoys me after a few minutes
i tried to watch porn and stuff like that, and it gets me excited, but i just don't feel like masturbating and making it happen

All my friends are (apparently) doing it almost everyday since they're 15 and i've lied about it for a while now because i don't really want people to know, because it's just not the usual situation
am i weird?
should i try harder?

I'm attracted to girls, i've had a few gfs but i never had sex
i want to have sex, like, you know, a normal 18 years old guy
but i've had overnight ejaculations (during dreams and stuff)
So i think i'm pretty normal in that way, but i just don't -feel- like masturbating and going to the end of it

I don't even feel really bad about it, even tho it's probably gonna make me jerk off pretty quickly when i have sex for the 1st time (right?)

so yeah, what do you guys think?

    I don't either. I'm never really in the mood. Plus the last time I did I had a nasty incident with my middle claw

    Exactly. People with low sex drive still have sexual attraction (unlike asexuality) just that the drive is lower. It makes sense that someone with a very high sex drive would masterbate a lot and someone with a low sex drive would hardly masterbate at all.
    I think having low sex drive is entirely normal. To not masterbate is apparently uncommon but I don't think it's abnormal. I think a lot of people with a high sex drive would much prefer it to be low. Masturbation doesn't achieve anything, really. I dread to think the amount of time I wasted in my teen years on the pointless activity lol

    Do you think you might just have a lower sex drive than most?
    It's certainly unusual. More so in a male.

      i wouldn't see why, as i said in my post, i'm attracted by girls, i've had gf and i've enjoyed it and i enjoyed the -little- we did, soooo ...
      at least i don't feel like that
      hard question tho, i can't really measure my sex drive and compare it to other people's sex drive :/

        I began masturbating when I was 9 years old, and I didn't even know what it was. Even babies and chimpanzees touch themselves. I'm sorry buddy, but I don't believe you.

          well, that's just giving me the confirmation that i'm actually weird
          sorry if you don't believe me, but it's the sad truth, and why would i even write this post if i was lying? why would i even lie about this type of stuff, it's anonymous (pretty much).
          Although, starting at 9 years old is a record, i don't think i know anybody who started before they were 12 ... puberty hit you pretty damn early man

            No sir. I hardly have hair on my chest even now. I didn't produce any, uh, emission until I was about 16 or 17 I think. But it was still enjoyable for some reason.

    I masturbate a lot but you shouldn't be ashamed of not masturbating. I personally don't know either how you keep all that stuff in for long periods of time and maintain the sex long. Your normal and others that tell you it's not normal just think you're weird because they think everyone should do it and are ignorant of other opinions.

    Might as well try harder and then you might have a new opinion of it though (you never know).

    In my opinion the fact that you are a 17 year old boy and never done it is unusual, I have heard of 17 year old girls who haven't, but it seems more rare for boys not to
