    When I was eleven and twelve I felt immature because I didn't like guys. I started to get interested in girls when I was ten, but I assumed that I was checking them out because I was excited to look like them in the future. When I was twelve I was beginning to suspect that I might be a lesbian. It was a terrifying thought so I just dismissed it until I was fourteen. I still don't know if I'm a lesbian or not and that makes me feel immature.

    I didn't link my sexuality, or, more accurately in my case, the lack thereof, to maturity during puberty. However, I can definitely relate to feeling immature now. I turn 21 in a few hours, and I'm still confused by sexuality and romance and how these things relate to my life.

    I'm 23 and feel like I'm in another world. I have no idea how to have a romantic or sexual relationship with someone and feel like everyone else my age (and younger) is an old hand at it.

    There's so many unspoken "rules" and subtleties I just don't get and want so badly for someone to help me understand them before I get any older.

    OMG YES!!!!!

    I had friends who were boy crazy and wanted a boyfriend and I had no intrest. I thought I was just weird. Eventually I got a boyfriend i sat next to at lunch and no one bothered me anymore.
    Then he tried to kiss me and I got grossed out.

    I had zero sex drive till I was 15 and found out it was girls I was attracted to..then my libido appeared finally lol

    I can completely relate. I always felt out of the loop with things in the sexual/romantic realm. I still do. Heck, I am just starting to feel socially like I can communicate effectively when speaking to someone, like I should have been able to awhile ago.
