Is it normal at 24 to be single with no dating experience yet?

Hello, I just turned 24 and have never been in a relationship or a sexual encounter. i’m not someone that guys come up to and compliment or ask out. Which is pretty obvious due to the fact that I’ve never had a boyfriend.

i wouldn’t say I’m ugly, but I wouldn’t say that I’m a super model either. I’m pretty average. I’ve overhead guys my age say that a woman that’s never had a relationship is a “red flag”. So I feel like that’s probably lessening my chances at having one, and most likely not wanting to have a ex with someone on the first date lessens it too.

in school i wasn’t one to look around for the guys attention and I still don’t to this day, but it sort of feels like I’m falling behind. I’m not sure if I should even bother myself with the thoughts of being in a relationship and remain alone for the remainder of my life.

the area I live in is predominantly white, and over the years guys my age here have made it known they wouldn’t date a woman who is mixed or black. So that cuts me out of the picture there. It feels like all signs point towards me not trying to be in a relationship at all.

or maybe I’m just not cut out to be in one in this life. I have classmates from high school in long term relationships/ married/ having kids.

either way it doesn’t really matter, I guess some people aren’t going to receive love or to share love and maybe I just need to accept that I’m one of those people.
