Or... well, any relationship, really. I guess I should explain a bit. In high school I guess I just felt that even if I wanted to date, there was probably no 17/18 year old boy mature enough for me to be bothered dealing with him. After then, though, I guess I've never really felt the need to have a serious relationship and haven't wanted the hassle of being with someone if I didn't see it going anywhere. I've never felt the need to just be with someone for the company they provided.
Before some lame brain asks, no, I'm not fat, I'm not ugly (I can look damn sexy when I put my mind to it) and I'm not psycho. I guess I am a bit shy, but not abnormally. That's my main problem, I think. I'd like to start dating a bit, but I don't really know how to start or how to date or anything. Erm, its kind of scary, no?
Right. I've talked enough. Sock it to me with the advise.

Thanks to everyone for your supportive and creative comments!
Trust me, I don't have high standards... I just wouldn't ask someone to take care of me as a girlfriend if they didn't have their own stuff sorted out, and let's face it, most of us don't in high school. I wouldn't do it because that's not fair to either person.
I really am 23! I'd show you my driver's license, but, well... internet. I mean really, asking questions here is pretty well anonymous, so why would I bother to lie? Creative writing's fun but I haven't done much in the last few years. I'm more into poetry lately.
Interesting point I didn't think much about... maybe I'll see if there's been questions about who should ask who out.

There is no magic formula to dating. You meet someone, let the conversations flow naturally. If you're both interested things will progress from there. Just relax and don't force things.

Once you start dating you get used to it. 18 isn't too young as long as he is mature enough for you. I am 21 and I am seeing a women who is 37. Or just wait for the right guy. Go out and make friends where ever you feel comfterble. Here in San Francisco friends are easy to come buy. Hobbies, clubs, organizations. Good way to start. Best of luck to you !!

well if your 23 I think that you should take some of your friends out to a bar and try to meet people. Or you could go to a party. There's always guys at parties. Just don't forget to dress up and look hot. And really don't forget to just be yourself. (I know that sound Korney but if your not yourself then when the guy realizes it he's just going to dump you so you can just save yourself the trouble)
That sounded kind of harsh before but just go out and have fun. You'll find the right guy eventually.

My advise would be to get out more...take a class at a local community college in a subject you like and you'll perhaps meet a compatible boy OR go to the beach and strut your stuff and let the guys come to you. Good luck girlfriend!

There are some people I've know whom have never dated at all in their life. Some did not date until they were 25. You are not the only one in this world. Just wait and when Mr. Right comes along, you'll know. =)

I say take your time. If you've made it this far, whats the rush? Wait for mr. right to walk into your life then go for it. But i agree. Whats the point of dating if you dont' think its going to go anywhere? Take your time, and keep on being your self. You'll meet the right guy eventually!

Just enjoy your youth and don't feel the pressure of society to get married and have kids all before you turn 30. When you find Mr. Right - you will know it. Don't settle.
