What in this day and age is normal? Date and have relationships at your own pace. There are a lot of people screwed up over the relationships they've had. Consider yourself lucky not to have the emotional baggage that goes along with being "normal".

Oh god.My sister is 30 and has never been in one.It worries me.

Well you are not alone anyway. Chalk up another at 30. But I know its my own fault that I racked up dating numbers. Can't seem to do the whole eye-catch/smile thing of encouragement. But beyond that, those I've dated so far have been filtered out quickly.

I was 25 when I had my first relationship. I was definitely moving at my own pace and just hadn't found anyone that really kept my interest once I got to know them. The only problem with being in a first relationship at 25 is that I was so far behind compared to my friends. Things they had learned long ago I was just starting to experience and understand. While not being in relationships until you are 30 gives the opportunity to truly know yourself inside and out and to know what it is you want it also makes it harder trying to learn how to be an 'us' instead of a 'me'. My biggest problem is now I'm so independent that remembering to include the other person is harder than one would think because I'm use to being alone.

I think it depends on the situation. I know a lot of military guys who are in their mid-late 20s who have never had a relationship more than a few months long, simply because they were moving from state to state every year or so. I'm currently dating one who for the past 3 years has not dated a girl for more than a month. My last two relationships were both 3 years long, so it's taking a bit of patience to deal with this one!

Its much harder for guys that's for sure..Girls don't really look and they tend to give advice to men about not looking when in fact you do..What ive found is humans just like animals compete to mate.. Males have competition in attracting females.. as much as girls deny it we do have the social hierarchy in which women are attracted to men at the top Alpha males.. Thats why women usualy always go for bad boys instead of the nicer guys.. Yeh science challenges love..And when you wake up and realise this you understand..women tend to beleive love is more real than men becuase they dont work hard to get it. men are atracted to looks women are atracted to high status. If it wasnt the 10 million a year job at the top of a company it would be the village leader who could hunt and provide, depending on the circumstances in history..
