Default Never had a boyfriend

Am I the only one who has never once had a boyfriend or gone on a date? I'm not ashamed of it, but I would like to hear about everyone else's experiences.

Wow! how old are you now, masara? You mean, you're a member of NBSB group? Well, if you are, I guess, no need to worry about that. A friend of mine who is now 29 years old is also a member of that group. She never had a boyfriend since birth.. My other friends keeps on asking her "why?", then she will just smile. Do you think that's normal?

It's perfectly normal, and I'm just 22, by the way. What does NBSB stand for? There's plenty of people like that, I'm sure.

A friend of mine who only experienced to have a boyfriend when she's 28 years old..She didn't know what real love is. . A week after,they got wedded and married by 2 witnesses only..Their marriage life turned into unsuccessful one.

There's a little bit advantage if a lady enters a relationship for a try at a proper stage of age .Maybe range 18-25 yrs of age.

I think ,some of my contemporary women agree with me that the relationship during high school days was more memorable and nice to remember. We feel young when we recollect those days.

There's no harm in trying to have a boyfriend at earlier age..Life could be more meaningful if someone special is so concerned with you.

I understand that, but guess its your decision not to have one right now. Advantage of having a boyfriend when you know how to handle already will give you experiences and may help you dealing problems ones your in it.

It means No Boyfriend Since Birth. When would you like to be in a relationship then? My friend told me she would be ready when she turns 32. I can't wait to know who could be the lucky guy.

I can't say that I have a specific age in mind, but my answer would just be, "Not right now." There's a lot of things I still want to do with my life right now, and I think that being in a relationship with someone would just ruin a lot of my plans.

You are not alone, Masara. Every girls has their own reasons why they don't commit to relationships yet. My friend made a promised that she would only have one boyfriend. Did it come to your mind too?

There are so many girls who have cases like this. Have you thought of entertaining suitors or going out on dates lately? For me, your age is quite ideal for accepting suitors.

Masara, how old are you? I don't think it is odd to have not had a boyfriend. I started dating pretty young~ about 13, but I always had steady boyfriends and our relationships lasted for years.
I had a girlfriend who didn't date until she was in college. I see nothing for you to be ashamed of.

My friend did that promise to herself too. She said that she won't date anyone unless she gets into the fourth year of college and she did.

Maybe this came to my mind unconsciously. My mom only had one boyfriend, and she married him. I think I would rather date one person. While dating can be fun, it also seems like it would be a big hassle having to introduce yourself to different people over and over then go through this big ordeal of getting to know them.

Hmm I think you're just scared of the outcome since you haven't tried it yet. It's just a matter of exploring something that you really want. It's true that people has a lots of reason to be in a relationship so it's a matter of choice.

I have actually a friend who is now 23 or 24 years old and still single. I mean, she don't have her boyfriend yet since then. But I can't really say she's a KJ. Of course, she also love outings and night life with friends. Maybe she's just afraid to have commitment. How about you, are you afraid of it?

I don't think I'm afraid of a relationship or a commitment, I'm just being cautious. I've seen a lot of relationships go wrong, and I just don't want to end up like those people. The people that have asked me out weren't my type, and they looked like they probably had children from a bunch of different women. I don't want to walk into anything like that.

What's a KJ? Is it a killjoy?

Well how will you know it unless you go out with them and then conclude about their personality later on. It's really not good to be judging people just by their looks or actions you got to know them first.

I agree with you, Reira. To date would be a good idea so that you would know each other. To Masara, I hope you wouldn't have too much limitations with yourself. It could be that you are not ready to commit relationship because you haven't found someone interesting yet. Well, there's nothing wrong with that. Remember, do not compare yourself with other people. We are all different. Do you agree?

Yeah we are different from others so don't think that every relationship is the same in all the couples around the world. No one else can prove it but you.

You're right! But sometimes we can't deny the fact that unconsciously, we are comparing ourselves with others relationship. Do you think we could stick our mind with our own?

Of course we could stick with our own. We are all unique and we shouldn't compare one another. If some relationship would failed then, why should we think that our own relationship would also? Just be happy with what you have.

Well, I perfectly agree with you, brandy. But sometimes, that could also affect you. I mean, just like my cousin, because her parents relationship didn't works, she don't have also positive attitude towards relationship. Do you think, that idea that she had in mind could possibly change?

Hi bethoven, you have a point...I understand your cousin's feelings. Sometimes our atmosphere affect our perception the way we think, how we handle circumstances and how we make decisions.

Yes, her perception can be change but it requires time and she have to change her atmosphere. For her to believe that it is not true to everybody, she have to see someone who had been in that situation and now living differently.

Your cousin must have a positive perception towards relationship, Bethoven. I won't blame her if she feels that way. However, I believe it could be change. Did her parents explained to her why the relationship didn't work? In my opinion, they are the ones who could help her change the way she thinks. Since they are the cause, I think they could be the remedy too.

I think that perception can change and it should be more like her motivation. It's because her parents didn't had a happy relationship right? So she should bear in mind that she can do something better than this. Don't people learn from their experiences?
