There's nothing wrong with you at all, lots of my friends are 18 and have never kissed a guy/had a boyfriend and maybe won't until university, don't worry about it as you'll get a bf within time but until then just go out, have fun and meet new people etc :smile:

Nah, it's a little late maybe, but there is nothing wrong.

It'll happen when you least expect it too. Things like this always do. :smile:

Is that entirely true? Most kisses tend to happen in situations where you DO expect them - spending time with someone alone, in a social situation etc etc. Kisses, for example, don't tend to happen while you are in the middle of an exam or in the middle of the night when you're asleep. So if she engineers some situations where kisses are more likely to happen - spend more time out with friends/meeting new people - then shes more likely to get a kiss when she does expect it.

you might have a point but then isnt it kissing someone for the sake of being able to say i've been kissed
OP theres nothing wrong with you - if your happy not kissing people thats ok

It could be, but it could also be a way to meet new people and get a boyfriend. If she really wanted to get that first kiss out of the way she could probably do it within about 3 hours on any given night - its not hard. My point is that you aren't going to get anywhere by not being pro-active, you can't sit at home and wait for a prince charming to come knocking on your door when you least expect it. :smile:

I'm in the same situation, you dont need to hide behind anonymous, ive never properly kissed a guy or had a boyfriend. The only difference is i'm slightly older than you. I don't think theres anything wrong with us. I know people who are 19 and just getting their first boyfriends and stuff. Dont let it bother you, it will happen in time, you just need to go out have fun and meet people. :smile:

I don't mean now.

I mean those first-timers. :smile:

Well mine was anyway, not so much planned but then again you may have a point about it not being totally spontaneous.

At 17 I hadn't had a boyfriend either. But I had kissed guys...
Theres no time limit that says you have to have x amount of boyfriends at this age. Dont worry!

Hehe, 'expect it' was a phrase i probably should have abandoned in the first post. I'm trying to say that kisses are more likely to happen in certain situations than they are in others, and so if you spend all your time in situations where you will 'least expect it', someone is not very likely to run up and plant a smacker on you. But if you spend time with people, as you must have done to be able to kiss your boyfriend - even if he didn't expect it, then you are much more likely to get kissed/kiss someone. :smile:

I've never had a relationship either by account of the fact I've never been attracted to anyone.

But I don't think it's abnormal, I know other people who've never had boy/girlfriends yet. There's no set time on these things.

I'd worried because i hadn't in highschool, and then thought college would be the place, where i'd be able to be myself more/be more confident. But i think by that time I was still quite nervous about it, even though i had deffinately become more confident. I had put my self in the situation where i was sure it would happen, in a club and when a guy asked me to 'dance' i was just a wimp and basically scared that id make a fool of myself. Anyway when uni came it was easier, I had reached peak confidence, realised that i shouldn't be scared of taking chances. Then i found someone I love kissing :smile:

:dito: Unless you're fairly new to this forum there isn't much of an excuse. Your situation is no different to anyone else who has posted a thread like this, so you'd only receive duplicate advice.

im 19 2moro and i made it to 18 and 8 months before i kissed a girl and that was only because my mates got me drunk and took me clubbing - ive still never had a girlfriend. also im a bit kind of pissed of that my first kiss was some random that i never seen again cos i was holding out for that someone special (just have to leave sex for the special person lol!) but my mates @ uni have only known me a few months and dont konw ive never been in a relationship so it wasnt as nasty as it sounds when i say they hooked me up with a random (and at least she was hot)
