He is a very good looking boy, and the girls seem to go crazy over him, but he is quiet and doesnt seem to be interested. He is not gay. He likes the girls, but has never even kissed one as far as I know. Should I just stay out of his business? We pretty much raised each other. He has a sister who is polar opposite.
Will he be a late bloomer? Can I do anything other than stay out of his personal business?

He has playgirls and a big poster in the garage with a half naked lady holding a machine gun in leather high heeled boots. I doubt he is gay.

I'm 22 and I'm very shy around girls and never been in a terribly serious relationship. There's the expectation that guys our age ought to be raging animals out on the hunt. I'm very much into girls and I certainly could go to some anonymous party and wind up in bed with a girl the next morning. But I'm waiting for the girl most suitable for marriage before I really put myself out there and overcome my shyness.

There is something actuallly kind of refreshing about it, I think. The best thing you can do for your son is to talk to him, in a casual but important sort of way, about the wonders of the married life and what you expect of him as a husband and father. Impress upon him the importance you grant to family life. Tell him what you looked for in your spouse and what makes a girl truly splendid.

He'll find a girlfriend when he's ready. But you can help him prepare for finding the right one.

OMGOSH that is nothing!!!! Guess where I am right now! Im at my boyfriend, future fiance, future husbands house and he is 24, and hadnt accepted a kiss till I came around 7 months ago!!!! And hes not the only one his brother 22 is the same way. There mother talked to me adn told me she was so worried about them,,,just didnt understand how two handsome boys could be so shy! Have no fear mom...a girl is gonna come around and swoop him off his feet and bring out characters about him you never knew exsited. Hopefully the girl'll be as charming as me...not to brag or anything....and its grate his brother is following suit and starting to ask about girls!
Luck Charms Mom!

leave him alone. He's 21. I'm sure he can think for himself. Maybe he's gay, may be he had a girlfriend and doesn't want to tell. Maybe he's interested in someone who's engaged at the moment. Just let him be.

It could be that he just hasnt found the right person yet, and when he does Ill bet he marries her. my husband is much the same way, he never had a girlfriend before me and he is quiet and to himself still. Dont worry he will find what he wants, I would be proud that he doesnt want to "settle"

Stay out of it. I know you mean well, and so does he, but pressuring him is just another thing he has to deal with, right? Maybe he hasn't met anyone he likes, or maybe he just isn't telling you everything. You never really know, right? Support him if/when he meets someone but never be pushy or nosy. I'm sure he's fine =)

He sounded like me at that age. Let him be. He will come around. Do not push him or say anything to him about that may make it worse. I did OK, got a wife been married 24 years and 1 kid.

just be grateful he's not girl crazy. That's probably not on his mind right now it sounds like he just wantsto keep his head on straight and not get caught up with that. It could be that he doesn't like girls that are so forward maybe he likes the sweet quiet type he'll probably find one when he's ready

if he's as good-looking as you say, it's just a matter of time before some bold gal makes the first move herself.
otherwise, putting pressure on him to "be a man" or whatever will only make him feel even more uncomfortable about approaching women.
actually, now that i think of it, maybe alcohol would help.

some people are just shy. i think you shouldn't interfer all that much with his life. maybe, for some puciliar reason, he is having self-esteem issues. maybe he isn't ready for a steady relationship, and doesn't want people asking him out. he seems like a very private man. Maybe you can ask him one day why he is feeling so shy

Well, just in case he is gay, you might want to tell him that you love him and support him no matter what.

Other than that, you might want to stay out of his personal business.
