no it’s not. you are still very very young and coming into yourself. even if you were older, it’s not weird. all your “type” is are certain traits that you find yourself drawn to. you don’t need to know what underlying factors there are to all of your crushes/partners/etc. hell, your type might even change as you grow and change as a person. love and attraction is a lot weirder and less straightforward than people make it out to be. just allow yourself to like people and to make connections! <3

I don’t know, everyone around me already had theirs in mind and I just had no idea, it almost felt like I was behind in that aspect? I only just made the connection to each of my ex’s and crush’s appearances and some of the common traits that were there

Lwk I really don’t (besides college, because yippee education), just all of my friends knew what their types were, what they wanted out of their relationships, actively going on dates and finding partners And I just wasn’t And they’ve been constantly pressuring me to find somebody and I didn’t even know what type of person I wanted until recently and everyone is making me feel weird about it ig

i feel like its a very non-issue sort of situation, figuring out who u like whether its in ur teens, early adulthood or way later is normal

It’s not a race u gotta take ur time with love anyone who makes u feel like shit about it has no right to be in a relationship themselves bc they don’t know what love is.

i’m a bit older than you and i still don’t know what people would consider my “type” to be, and i don’t really care to. it seems to me like you’re putting a lot of pressure on yourself over this. so let me tell you, please don’t!! you are allowed to move at a different pace than your peers, with both your love life and anything else. plus, all that means is you get to learn about yourself now!! and that’s always a fun and exciting thing to see. ^_^
