Sadly, yes this is "normal". Most guys around that age are just finding out and experimenting, it's all very exciting for them. It is merely a competition, boasting. Don't worry they would like you yet they may use you to add to their 'pulling/base list'. Make sure your boyfriend likes and respects you.I do feel boys at this age are interested in nothing but bases and sex. It's life i guess SADLY. You don't have odd friends at all. Just ignore them, i can see it getting very tedious for you.Try and get them of the subject. I am 15 and it still goes on, soon it will die down. good luck xx

However, that does not make it fine..It was there when I was your age, but I don't remember it being so general. You said you "knew" there were other guys who had respect for the girls they liked, but you don't say you knew any personally or had any as "friends". Why not? You know, we choose our friends. They are not dumped on us. No, the girls who are talked about so are not "liked". Not as persons. Sadly, many boys today do not have adult men..fathers, to give them advice on how they should behave with girls or feel about them. And those who do are not always given good advice. But, I am sure you know many girls who are happy to be sex objects and look at boys no differently. So, it works both ways. If you are uncomfortable with the way your guy friends talk and act, maybe you should look round for others who are different. They are out there,..probably wishing they could meet someone like you.

It is really a difficult situation. Thing is - most relationships at that age don't last. It is fun, and it adds to the experience of life, but it generally doesn't last.
Thus - your relationships might very well end up being discussed by others, and that is why you have to keep your business private, and make sure that your bf actually likes you. Many guys are nice and respect girls, but it is true what you say - the ones who boast about it, are only in it to see how far they will get... SAD, but true.
Try and surround yourself with people who are not so hung up about bases and pullings??? This might be a safer environment for you.
Good luck girl....
