Is it normal to be 18 and never had a boyfriend?

i was overweight as a kid and very insecure. i lost all the weight, now im 5'11" and 125lbs. people always make comments about how i should be a model or compliment me but i still feel as ugly as i did back then. i have no confidence in myself and im way too scared and shy to ever initiate anything with the guys i've known. its just difficult because i think i come off as being quiet or unattainable or maybe even snobbish but im really just so insecure and id give anything to feel loved.
obviously, because ive never even been in a relationship, im also still a virgin and im 18...is any of this normal??

    u just hav to get confidence in urself. u gotta look at urself in the mirror and not just tell ur self but believe u r beautiful. even if someone is fat they r still beautiful. and for ur boy problem, its no problem. the right person hasnt come around yet but one will. if a guy u like asks u out, say yes. but dont b someone who dates evry single guy they talk to. get to know thm first and u'll find this will go away

    its just that im the only one out of my friends to not have been in a relationship. maybe i just wasn't outgoing enough with guys in high school but it just makes me feel like theres something horribly wrong with me if im the only one without a boyfriend...

    Yeah totally normal. You'll meet tons of guys and definitely date a few of them.

    yeah, I'm 17 and the only gf's I've had were for like a week and we didn't even do anything. Not everyone is comfortable in this field at an early age, you shouldn't feel pressured, with some people it's like a self esteem thing for them, if they're not banging someone they hardly even know and causing irreversible psychological damage on the way they view sex, they're not happy. But, nah, I'd say this is normal. If you make it a goal of yours to get out and talk to people it will happen though, I mean shit dude it's nature.
