Its just weird. i'm 17, and never really wanted to date anyone. Is there a psychological term that describes someone who is really not into love? i'm not a hateful person....

This doesn't sound like a psychological disorder at all. I only had my first boyfriend at 19 and the second at 26. It is really where your priorities are. For myself I am a very loving person and preferred to love everyone in the form of friendship than to commit my love to one person. When I was at school it was also the priority of wanting to get the best grades I could and not be distracted by a relationship. I honestly wouldn't worry about it - when the time comes or your priorities change then you will find someone to love, and even if you don't ever want to have someone (and you can't really answer that until the end of your life) then perhaps it is just that you are meant to walk a different path to the majority of the population and you should be proud of that, not worry about it.

Every person is different and as long as you are basically a good person and do no harm to others there is nothing whatever wrong with you.
You may however want to look close at the why of it. Not that you should feel this way but why not. If you have no interest in girls/women except to be friends then fine. Just be sure of why that is.
And your looks have nothing to do with what goes on inside of you. Your interest are your own and no one else has the right to say they are right or wrong.
I never dated anyone until long after high school. However it had nothing to do with what I wanted. I was shy and it was much easier to not put myself out their and take that chance of rejection.
There is nothing I wanted more but I told myself it was okay because I could live with that.
Just be honest with yourself and you will be fine.

Man, there's NOTHING wrong with you for not wanting to date anyone. You don't have some crazy psychological condition, you probably just haven't found anyone that's worth spending time with in a serious relationship. No big deal. I'm sure you'll find an amazing person eventually, and falling in love will probably hit you like a brick.

Believe it or not there is a medical reason for this. I am married and very happy. I am one person who could not, not be married. I have a guy I work with occasionally who is a single man in his 40's and was married once to a very attractive woman who loved him very much. They are divorced now after only a few weeks. He has no sex drive at all and he will tell people this without reserve. His doctor has told him it probably can be treated but he is very happy just the way he is. He has plenty of money and no problems at all. To me though, it has to be such a lonely lifestyle. I couldn't do it.

It may not be any particular psychological condition. It may just be that you have other priorities in your life right now. It may also be that at this point in your life you're just not that interested.
Relationships are a lot of work and at 17 you may not be interested in putting in that kind of work right now.
That doesn't mean things won't change in the future.

it's called being "ok" with yourself and not caring if to fall in love or not... trust me you don't want to be like me... i fall in love too easily and i just waste all my energy on a person for what?! nothing! trust me, you're ok...

Maybe it is against your religion to have a partner
