Is it normal that i hide my relationship status from the world?

Hello, I am still fairly young (19) and have never been in a relationship...or had anyone ever take interest in me, at that. I have kissed no one, just truly been with no one in any way. It saddens me, yes, but there's really not much I can do about it. Now, my question is, is it normal that no one knows this? It's a really big mystery to everyone who knows me! I have a close family and a very tight knit relationship with each one of my friends, but not one of them has a clue if I've ever kissed anyone, dated, etc. Not to mention none of them have ever asked, but if they did, I would work my way around it and I would never let on. They may have a clue, but none of them have ever said anything to me, so I would guess that they're just kind of lost. It's very embarrassing to me and I can't bring myself to ever tell anyone. I constantly wonder if my parents ever wondered why I never talked about or went out with any boys (or even girls) throughout high school. Now I live off on my own, so they're even more in the dark. So, once again, is it normal that no one knows? That I keep it a secret?

    I'm 19 and never even so much as held hands with a girl yet. I make no secret of this. Although I might not go around shouting it from the rooftops but if it comes up in conversation I tell people.
    Some people are surprised when I tell them.
    When I was at school my mum would sometimes ask me if there were girls I liked. Now I'm at uni she doesn't ask anymore. I guess she's assuming I must be seeing someone that I'm not telling her about, but I'm unfortunately not.

    I would probably do the same. I don't want certain people knowing about my love life. I wouldn't be doing it out of shame, but for the sake of privacy.

    It's none of their business unless you want them to set you up on blind dates or with their mates.

    Story of my life coz i feel a bit embarrassed about the whole thing though if i was to be in a relationship i'd definitely never shout it from the rooftops which is rather ironic, but yeah i guess it's normal

    Why wouldnt it be normal...I rather have my life more unknown and mysterious anyway.
