Is it weird that I have very low interest in dating?

I don't know why but 4 some reason, I don't really care about going on dates. I even suspect that I may have been on one and didn't even know it was a date, lol. I don't mind testing the waters and seeing what's out there but I'm not actually making any effort to try and actually go on dates. I actually would prefer things to just happen naturally. For me, a relationship with a guy should be pretty much like a friendship with a guy friend. The only difference is that your relationship with your boyfriend has chemistry i.e your relationship with your boyfriend should = Chemistry + Friendship.

 

I feel like I'm rushing life or like I'm forcing things If I'm trying to get dates online or through friends. It just feels better to just relax and let things happen in their own time. Like they say, Love will come when you stop searching 4 it. I may just be uninterested in the whole dating thing because I'm young though. I don't know but I have a feeling I'll always feel this way about dating. What do you guys think? Do u think it's necessary to date in order find that special person?

I was very immature in my twenties and was a bit afraid of men so I rarely dated. It's amazing that more men didn't take advantage of my naivete. I had an aura of aloofness that intimidated some men, as they later told me.

This isn't that uncommon with women.

 

Just curious. Have you had a BF before? How old are you?

i've never been interested in dating either, since i was a teen. i'm in my 30's now and i still don't care for the concept.

 

i agree that it should just happen, and i've never asked for a 'date'. but realistically, i've been on tonnes of dates, i've just never called them that, and it's worked out perfectly so far. when i'm out with my "date" we're just out having a good time in each others' company.

 

so is it a date ? i suppose the more important question should be: does it even matter ? i think what matters most is: whom you choose to spend your time with, and why. the term "dating" seems to be more semantecs than anything.

I'm 20 and have never had a bf. Not because I haven't had the opportunity to get one but because I'm waiting 4 a relationship with substance(good friendship and chemistry). I knew a lot of girls in high school who were hardly ever single through out high school. They were always in relationships. Sometimes I wondered if they even liked the ppl they were with. What's the point of being in a relationship if u don't feel a strong connection with the other person? I would rather be single. I've been happily single since the day I was born and I'm willing to stay single until I find that special person. I would rather be by myself than be with someone I feel nothing for.

Yeah, pretty much what I expected.

 

I've known quite a few young girls like yourself who've never been in a relationship nor who've had any interest in dating. Some people just don't have that desire and are happy to be single.

 

Weirdos... J/K :p

I feel the same and I'm in my early 40s. I've been there, done that.

Dating sounds like alot of work now and I don't have the energy for that.

Like you, I think I'll sit back and if someone comes along that's great but if they don't that's fine too. Everything else feels like forcing it[which is what guys are supposed to do] and I don't feel like doing that any more.
