Loaded question. Depends on who answers. Some will say no. Others will say that there is evidence that he did.
I personally can't see a man living into his 30's and not having a girlfriend. Priests rarely go without sex. Nuns rarely go without sex. Hardly anyone goes without sex. And since Jesus was human (whether he was God incarnate or not) he was a healthy human male.

Looks like someone read "The DaVinci code..." Its a theory, of some scholars, that Jesus Christ was married to Mary Magdalene, and that her portrayal as a negative character in the Bible stemmed from the jealousy of the prophets who were offended that the son of God would put a woman before them. Remember, that DaVinci code is a fictional novel, however if you do a search for the Mary Magdalene, you will find that there is some questionable evidence that they were together. For example, apparently the ultra religious "answerers" on this site seemed to have over-looked that Jesus was Jewish, and a rabbi. I am Jewish, and I can tell you as a fact that a man of Jewish faith CANNOT become a rabbi unless he is already married. This tradition is even practiced today. I have seen men marry because they want to become rabbis. It is very possible that Jesus was married, although we have no evidence to prove the matter one way or the other. Was he married to Mary Magdalene? Jesus’ disciples ask Mary Magdalene, “Sister, we know you were greatly loved by the Savior, as no other woman. Therefore tell us those words of the Savior which you know but which we haven’t heard.” Later in the text, Peter challenges Mary’s teaching, and is rebuked by Levi, “If the Savior considered her to be worthy, who are you to disregard her? For he knew her completely and loved her steadfastly.” These lines could imply that Jesus and Mary had an intimate romantic relationship.

Haven't you ever noticed how the easiest and absolutely not provocative questions are answered by so many angry answers?
People are taking everything too serious... Anyway, this fact hasn't been proved and even studied well. If your basics are in "The Da Vinci Code" then you must understand that it is a book and not a scientific theory as it is taken by some of the Christians. This is how "anti-Dan Brown theories" were born. As for me they are all simply useless, because to prove that one theory is wrong by another theory, you should at least have the first one. As well as Jesus was not explored as a historical person well enough your question can not be answered today.

Your answer will vary dramatically depending on who you ask. They average faithful Christian will say "no", they figure if he did it would have been in the Bible. However, someone else might respond that there are a great deal of writings which should have been included in the Bible that wern't that point to his possibly being married. I have no idea. If you're interested though, there is a great deal of information out there about the subject, fictional (DaVinci Code) and Non-Fictional(Holy Blood Holy Grail, The Woman with the Alabaster Jar, etc...) out there. Be wary though, not all the non-fictional sources are credible.

Da Vinci aside there is a theory that he was married to Mary Magnaline, the woman who saw him on the day of this resurrection, some say that he did have a child with her, a female, and that she and the child fled to modern day France and was married into the royal blood line there. Making it possible for someone to be related to Jesus.

some claim that Mary Magdelen was his wife and she gave birth to his daughter Sarah in Egypt. With the DaVinci Code, it's become quite common to bash this theory, but the theory predates the DVC, which is a work of fiction that uses bits of history.
Like Jesus' very existence, there's no way to prove or disprove it.

The movie DaVinci Code had Jesus married to Mary Magdeline but the Bible says no.

No, his purpose was to preach the Good New of Gods Kingdom and to prove that a perfect man could keep his integrity under test thus sanctifying Jehovah's Sovereignty.

The majority of Orthosox, Catholic and Protestant Reliogions do not believe Jesus had a wife or a child.
A few sects do believe that he did, however.

One can never know. I don't believe there is proof that he did or proof that he didn't. There is no mention of any of his life events from 12-30 years old. I would like to believe that he may have.
Those that chose to make him into something more than human would like you to believe otherwise.
