It's alright, at about that age it's different for everyone so you don't really know. You don't have to wait for someone to ask you out, you just have to be bold enough to go talk to the person you like. I'm not saying that if you see someone half decent on the street that you have to try to make them your boyfriend. I'd rather have a guy come along later than have a million guys want to date me but none of them be anything special. You'll get someone wonderful sooner or later :)

We dated for awhile but I didn't really like him. I just wanted a boyfriend. Anywho, he cheated on me so I dumped him and after that I didn't even try to get a BF. One day this amazing guy came into the place I worked (at a convenience store) and he bought a dozen roses. I rang him up and everything and he asked me out. We have now been together for 3 and a half yrs and are engaged to be married and we are expecting our first child together. My point is, don't rush it. You'll find love when your not looking for it.

I remember when i was at school, i was a bit chubby and wasn't one of the "popular" girls and i thought i was destined to always be alone with regards to guys.
I'm now 23 years old, tall and slim. I'm not saying i'm that confident in myself but i get quite a bit of attention from guys (usually the wrong kind) anyway, at your age it's always awkard and some girls seem to find it easier than others.
It could actually be a positive thing that you don't have a boyfriend yet. You sound pretty mature and most girls who have boyfriends who are the same age as you aren't in a serious relationship or anything, it's not really a big deal.
Just concentrate on having fun with your friends and don't worry about boys. The right one will find you when it's the right time. Trust me, a few years from now you'll be regreting wanting to be so involved with guys. They're more trouble than they're worth.
Chin up hun.

 I didn't have my first real boyfriend till I was 16! That's when you start to drive, and have a little more freedom from your parents..It's not exactly romantic to get dropped off by your parents on your first date.
You know I had that happen to me, I said yes to my friend's cousin who asked me out for a joke. I was embarrassed but eventually got over it and did find boys who actually liked me. You'll find a boy that genuinely likes you, it will definitely be clear and not some dumb joke.

 Will you ever get a boyfriend? Yes.
Here's some statistics I've pulled out of my hat: every girl who didn't have a boyfriend at the age of 15 has had several by the age of 25. With the natural exception that confirms the rule. Unless you want to be without one, you most definitely will find one sooner or later. And you'll join the rank of ladies who have dated and complain about the immaturity level of men. And then you'll come here on dearcupid and complain about how teenagers are so insecure. Do not worry! 15 is nothing! Tons of girls don't have boyfriends at that age, and it means absolutely NOTHING for their ability to get a boyfriend later on.
No worries.

 Just wait till that immature game is done. There is no hurry and you're still plenty young.
You could always take the bull by the horns and ask out someone you like. That would be one way to make sure the proposal isn't a joke.
