Is it weird that I haven't had a boyfriend/kissed anyone and I'm 14?

I know it shouldn't be at all, and I know people will probably tell me its fine.
But the thing is, the peer pressure is freaking INTENSE.
People always ask me about how "far I've gone" with guys. and plus, having your facebook status set to "single" all the time is kind of depressing. =\ I'm a very introverted teenager, and I think that reading a book is far superior to "getting wasted" like everyone else seems to want to do.
I'm not ready to date yet. I just want to live my freaking life without all of this pressure to drink, smoke, do drugs, and have sex with guys when I don't want to.
What the hell do I do? How do I stand this without breaking down?
Heeelpp >_<
 
i feel the same way as you but don't worry about it, wouldn't you rather save yourself for someone special than be called a whore?
 
i feel the same way, although only about the sex part.
im not ready to tht
and it can be hard to find a guy who agrees with you
but i think what i do to keep me grounded
are my friends tht love me no matter what
and my family.
look at the positive in your life,
dont let pure pressure get the best of youuu.
just wait untill your ready, dont sink into it
 
No it isn't weird at all. Well done for having some maturity.

There's plenty of time yet. I didn't have my first boyfriend til I was 18 and there was nothing weird about me. I wasn't a school nerd, or unpopular or anything like that.
My friends respected me for sticking to my beliefs (that I didn't want a man yet and that taking drugs wasn't for me) and they usually relied on me for talking them out of it too or thinking up something better to do at the time.
When they did get wasted however, I kept an eye out for their safety (making sure they got home ok etc) but I didn't judge. Its their choice and as long as you don't judge them, they probably won't try to pressure you to do it anymore.
 
Don't let people control your life. if your happy with how you are living its fine don't worry about what other people say if someone asks you how far you've gone or if your a virgin or anything like that say its none of your business and walk away. i agree i love reading and would much rather read a book then go out drinking. Just keep living life the way you want to. remember what ever you do you're the one that has to live with it not them so live to make you happy not every one else. good luck. and congratulations for joining the small group of decent teenagers left in the world. :) hope you make the right decisions in life you have a lot going for you, when people try to preasure you into drinking and doing drugs and crap just remind your self your going to be the one living in a big house with a good job and a family in 20 years and they'll be living in a ditch. good luck :)
