I grew up with guys as friends & had no desire to get involved with what I felt was inappropriate girl stuff of going gaga over some hot guy. Guys were guys & I was always just one of the guys, never really relating to girls or women even after I got married, I always found the stuff that women were into (kids & home) to be boaring. I was into career & sports with the guys I worked with after I got my degree.

I did get married when I thought I might have found the right guy....but he wasn't responsible enough to take care of things like I expected. It caused fighting & other issues & even tough we had our daughter & stuck together for 33 years, when I finally left & could get my own identity & values back into what I wanted, it felt so much better to be ALONE. I have no desire to get married again.....thank you, I am perfectly happy & love surrounding myself with my eskies & horses.

My boyfriends growing up were just that.....boy friends. What I am seeing now way too often is girls feeling like they have to have real boyfriends at an early age just to prove their sexuality rather than being sure enough of themselves to just take the whole thing slow without the pressure forcing them to define their sexuality. Just accept yourself & your feelings now....everything else will fall into place at a later time & that's ok too....don't be made to feel that it isn't ok.
