Is it weird that I'm 25 and only had one serious relationship?

Should I feel weird or like something is wrong with me I'm 25 and only had one serious relationship that lasted 3 years. We broke up when I was 21. I've been dating ever since but have not been in an official relationship since. I've had various scenarios happen, some where I wasn't interested enough so I broke it off and some with guys not wanting to commit and be serious. I'm starting to feel like everyone around me is in serious relationship but I've had no luck in almost 4 years.

Its not weird at all. At least you had one that you can call serious, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. The dating pool these days is highly contaminated. Its hard to find anyone that is willing to be serious on both sides. The girls claim to want to be, but aren't, and the guys are just up front about it. All you can do is keep meeting people and wait till a potential person with similar interests comes along. Try not to turn many down, you never know where they will come from.

Weirdness is such a fluid concept. Don't waste your time with such things and just enjoy your life. No normal man would care how many serious relationships you've had before him.

I don't think it's weird at all. Even if I dated, I've only been in one serious relationship.
I have a couple of friends who are like you. They broke up after three ou four years and never had other real relationship. I just feel like when you had something that serious, you don't want to jump into a new relationship and risk to make the same mistake again. There is nothing wrong with wanting something serious with the right person.

Nope, not weird. There is also nothing wrong with you. I'm still in my first serious relationship and I'm 27. Though, I don't know what age has to do with it. :/

Nope! It just means you haven't wasted as much time as some people do on failed relationships...

To date, none of mine have even lasted 6 months...

Not weird, I've only had one serious relationship and it lasted four years, I ended it about four years ago and haven't really dated since.

Most relationships fail anyway, why rush into obtaining the largest number of dysfunctional pairings that you can?

Not weird at all. It's uncommon, but not weird.
