Hi, everyone.
I am a 13-year-old girl and have not had a boyfriend. My friend, 13-year-old Es, says its' weird that I don't have one, when she has had four. I am homeschooled and don't get out much. Is this strange, or normal for 13?

Also, I am overweight (142 lbs.) and trying to lose some weight by exercise, any advice on that?

Don't listen to your friend, you are a wonderful young girl. Who is making the right choice and if you seem strange to this looser of 4 boyfriends that's okay. She is probably going to a public school and has what they call peer pressure and your parents having you schooled at home wanted to keep you from that. You can have all the heartbreaks and worries when you get to college and date, okay? Best wishes for you . k

Some friend you have eh! No it is not weird. My friend's daughter will be 14 in the fall. She goes to school is bright, smart, athletic and popular but doesn't date yet. None of her friends do either. Well maybe a few do but most of them don't yet. A lot of 13 year olds don't date. Don't use one other person as your standard.
I think that it is abnormal for a 13 year old to have already had 4 boyfriends but she would probably think I am a crazy old lady.
However, in order to meet other people besides this one loud mouthed friend would your mother allow you to get involved with community activities or are you home schooled through church based activities? I think you need more friends to expose you to more normalicy. I am not putting down home schooling. You just need to meet more people to find out what is normal.

i'll let you in on a lil secret sweetie, if you're 'friend' is callin you weird for somethin so stupid then she isn't really your friend. as for datin, you're only 13 boys should be the least of your worries right now. wait til you hit bout 16 or 17 before you really start worryin bout it. i think you're best bet to lose weight is to start eatin 5-6 lil meals of healthy food a day, no snackin after a certain time at night, and exercise. start out with your exercise slowly tho. you want your body to get used to movin around a lot before you really start workin out. start by takin walks round the block, or try one of those programs where ppl work out in a pool. if you want more ideas try talkin to your family dr. and stay away from gettin plastic surgery to lose weight. you'll feel better if you do it all on your own

You are home schooled so the enviornment to met guys your age isn't as broad as your friend that attends public school. Don't rush into dating. I think it is normal because of your homeschooling.

Darling.. I am seventeen and have never had a boyfriend.. and looking back I am very VERY happy with my decisions.. Focus on school and getting into college and a boyfriend will come naturally.

Its normal .....you're only 13....
seriously!!!
Enjoy your friends have fun, and when it happens - you'll enjoy it!!!
When you have a bf/gf under the age of 13, its silly little "relationships' anyways, enjoy the real ones to come.
