    No, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being single! You don't need to force yourself into relationships just to fit in. If you concentrate on just being yourself without needing someone else, not only will you be happier in the long run, but it will make for better relationships when you have them. My closest friend didn't even have her first boyfriend until she was 18, and certainly not because she couldn't get one. She was just more concerned about getting her life together first, and its not a bad example to go by.

    There is nothing wrong with being single at 15. So many times a teen gets involved with relationship after relationship and trying to make that other person happy that they never discover who they are as a person. Be in a relationship with yourself. Love yourself. Discover who you are because you can never be happy with someone else unless you are are happy with yourself. If you get lonely, find some volunteer opportunities in your area. Good luck!

    Of course it isn't wrong.
    It's the WAY TO BE =D
    Believe me... I'm your age and I feel really better when I'm single and have no guy on my mind.
    Relationships bring extra trouble and thoughts you can't handle yet.
    Enjoy teenage years... you'll realize someday later that it's the best way for now :)

    I would just focus on school for the time being. Relationships are complicating at that age anyway. You will enjoy things a few years down the road. Good Luck

    You really shouldn't think of not dating as bad. There is still plenty of time left for dating

    You aren't single. To be single you would have to be of marriageable age and you aren't.

    What you are is temporarily unattached. At your age concentrate more on schoolwork and school activities then dating.

    I don't think it's bad. Most teens break up after a while anyway. A lot do stay together though. Just wait until you find the right person. There's nothing wrong with being single. I'm single!

    No, there is nothing wrong with being single. I find its better to be single because you don't have to go through breakups and problems. It makes me happier to just be single.

    Enjoy your independence; now is the time to discover your own identity without it being tied to someone else. Now is the time to find a hobby, a passion, something that will sustain you for a short time or a lifetime. People will always come and go, but love of self and the willingness to explore what you want to love in life will be something that will comfort you in the years to come.

    I'm single and I'm 16 ^^" though my grades are more important at the moment.. and that's what I'm going to concentrate on. Though, if you think about it, been single means you get a lot more freedom to do whatever you please without hurting or embarrassing the partner.. yay for single peepz :D

    Im single and I'm 17... though I'm worried about it too

    Nope. Nothing. Nada. I'm 15, and I don't have a boyfriend-so not everyone's dating. I have a lot of friends that are 15 and single. (On the plus side, you can flirt your booty off and not have to answer to some insecure boyfriend)!!

    Hi, barbiechick123!

    I was "single" until about the age of 18. It was never a concern though, because I've never thought that being like others was some sort of measurement of success for myself. I can only be me, the best that I can, as can you! Feeling the need to be like others is something that's natural, but being like others may not be the right thing to do at a particular time.

    Thanks!
