I'm turning 24, never had a girlfriend?

Anonymous
I'm turning 24 soon and I've never had a girlfriend. And strangely, I'm not disturbed by it at all. I feel like I haven't missed anything. I've been doing my own thing: a year and a half from now, I'll be making figures and that will only climb as I get older based on my profession. I've been pursuing my dreams, education, having fun with my family. Someone about my age recently said to me that they were single for a year and they couldn't take it anymore and started looking for someone and I couldn't understand that.

So the reason why I bring this up is because people are increasingly asking me if/assuming I have a girlfriend. And when I tell them I don't, they're all surprised. And that kind of got me reflecting, because I realized I only have a couple friends and even less female ones.

I've asked out a couple girls in my life but they never turned into anything beyond one date.

Looks-wise, I'd say I'm average at best. But I've had some people tell me that they think I'm the funniest person they know. I can converse pretty well as long as I'm not trying too hard.

Is there something wrong with me if I haven't had a girlfriend yet?
