I am 17, and everytime we all go out, I am the only one without a significant other. Is it okay to be sad slash want what they all have, even though I am happy with being single sometimes?

No, it's not bad that you currently don't have a byfriend. Why be like everyone else? Sure, it's normal to feel lonely but from what I gather that's getting more and more common. Don't worry too much about it. Have your own ambitions, make your own way, get your own money and empower yourself. That way you need never be dependent on anyone.
I know of so many people who have never been alone in their lives. They lived with their parents, married right out of high school, had children and so many of them wonder when life passed them by. Do you think they just did what everyone else was doing? I encourage you to think outside of the box.
Think of men as dessert, they should complement the meal, they are not the meal itself. When you have that perfect meal that leave you with room for dessert then it adds a magical layer to the synergy of the entire dining experience. Your life, too, can be that way. Arrange your life (this may take time) to get to your potential, without compromise or doubt, and people will be attracted to you. You won't lack boyfriends then. And your girlfriends will be wanting what you have then.
Keep your chin up!

It's totally okay to not have a boyfriend even if your friends all do. You don't need a boyfriend to be who you are. If you're okay with being single for a while then that should be okay with your friends too. Don't think that people judge you because of a little thing like that!

Oh honey. I have a story for you. I was the same way at your age. All my friends had a boyfriend or someone and I didn't. I was sadden by it but just remember that you are single and need to love it. You need to be free and flirt with whom ever you wish. And when you do find someone you will know they are the one. :) good luck. Be happy okay? It will all work out in the end.( I found someone and love them very much.) P.S. you need someone to talk about it with..just contact me!

Yes, it is. A good bf would care for you, even love you and perhaps also help you study. You're happy with being single some times? That's not good enough. You should have a bf, missy, and I bet you a pizza and ice cream that you'd be happier once you have one!

Seventeen is too young to be woried about a steady boyfriend, don't stress it . I will bet your friends won't always have a steady boyfriend.
Be open to dating but try not to get serious.

Yes it's ok, because you know what welcome to the club. Word of advice to feel better, don't go out with your friends when they have their significant other with them.
