Is it normal that i have never kissed a guy?

I have never kissed a guy.... Not because I don't want to, or haven't ever been given the chance, but because I'm simply afraid. The bad thing about this is it has ruined many of my relationships because I'm so afraid to kiss someone... I just don't know how!
Now that I'm a 10th grader in high school and still haven't kissed someone, I feel like a complete outcast. Someone please tell me how to get over my fear - and how to take advantage of the situation when an opportunity comes along.

    'what to do when the opportunity comes along': kiss him back. Don't make that big a deal out of it, otherwise you'll just get nervous. When the time comes: relax. It's supposed to be fun.

    And don't worry, you're not an outcast because you didn't kiss anyone as a 10th grader. Have you read the other stories around here? Plenty of people have never been kissed (and some of them are a lot older than you).

    You'd be surprised how many people are still inexperienced at the time they graduate high school. And contrary to what you might think: they're not all losers either. Some of them are fun and attractive people. so don't fret too much about this. This doesn't make you 'an outcast'.

    It's normal
    And kissing is no big deal
    The first one might be a little weird since you don't know what to do but it's really easy after a couple times

    I don't think I have either... It's normal and don't rush it. Kiss someone when you're comfortable enough and it's the only way you'll be able to get over your fears.

    Good Luck!

    Ya, it was kinda scary, I didn't know how to use my tongue, or where to put my lips!

    Practice makes perfect, kissing is wonderful, and trust me there really aren't a whole lot of ways to mess it up. Pucker and press! Go for it, you will love it!

    You need to jump on that wagon the next time you get a chance, kissing is great, hell even I have kissed a guy and I'm not even a gayboy.

    The idea of kissing someone for the first time is an intimidating thought. Just try to clear your mind and enjoy the moment when your "opportunity" comes. Your first kiss might end up being kind of awkward, but once you try it you'll get a feel for it and not be so scared.
