There are lots of kids that don’t date in high school. Some of the nicest kids, in fact. And a lot of nice boys are introverted.

Also, I think dating in HS is somewhat regional - occurs more in some parts of the country than others. In some places, HS kids barely date and just go as friends to proms, or with a group of friends.
Also, it’s much better to not have dating experience, than to have had a bad dating experience due to the partner being controlling etc. I had friends in HS with that situation; and I hear of it now too.

Focus on making friends with some boys that are nice. Maybe through a club or activity. Then things could evolve from a healthy friendship, which is often the best way. If it doesn’t work in HS, then it will in college. Don’t worry - you will date when the time is right!
