[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is an 18 year old senior at an all-girls school and hasn't dated at all.  Well, technically she was asked to the prom last year by a platonic friend of a friend.  She occasionally goes to parties with girlfriends and is pretty social but it's never led to any guy being interested in her or any texting or dates.  I really think I'm accurate in this (no, she isn't hooking up with guys at parties).  On the random occasion or two that a guy has texted her (maybe twice in high school?) she was super excited about it but it never went anywhere but a 2 or 3 text exchange.

I certainly don't know exactly who in her grade is dating but my impression is that it's about 10 girls---the extremely pretty ones--- and they serially date--sometimes dating a guy for a year, sometimes for a few months.  These seem to be the only ones who date (to my knowledge as a mom).  Lest I get called a creepy mom-stalker--I don't know any of this for sure.  It's just my impression from what my daughter tells me, what other moms chat about, etc.

If you have (or better yet had) a daughter at an All-girls school was this their experience?  It is just so different from my own.  it does seem to be typical among her friend group (I'd say 1 of 6 have been on any dates in high school outside of being asked to a formal).  Certainly there is nothing I can do about it but I'm just curious and can't really ask around in real life.  [/quote]

I feel like I read a post very similar to this sometime last year but can't seem to find it.This isn't unusual. As you note, there are lots of kids not making the leap to dating in high school. [/quote]
