well, it does not matter, reason for that is:if you fancy him not really seriously, for this you can be 7yrs old..
actually if you taking boyfriend seriously, you have to make sure he's the right one..
all the boys like good looking girls.when i got dumped after week i found out that he made a mistake and still fancies me..so if you're a school girl, get your makeup out and get good looking.THAT ALWAYS WORKS!!!
Good luck!

you need to start a healthy relationship and honestly like your bf for who he is and not how he dresses,looks or anything like that. take it from some like me i had a bf during the summer i no this is totally wrong and but i used him to make another guy jealous and my whole plane backfired.

I have an 18 year old girlfriend and that is all we do, talk and have walks we have been dating 3 years and haven't even french kissed just butterfly kisses. So thats what I would suggest just take it slow and the right man will come along for you.
I hope this helps

aged:
0-10 = not real bf just a guy you get on with and have fun with
10-13 = bf just to hang round with, hold hands and ask for a hug
13-16 = trust me this is where you'll get a LOT, dnt have sex with these guys... its bad news.
16-..... on your way to mr right :D
hope this helped and made sense. all opinions vary but thats just mine so...

 How do your parents feel about you wanting a boyfriend? It should really be up to them.

lotus101 is verified as being by the original poster of the question Oh yeah, in 5th grade there was a dance. A boy asked me out. It was pretty fun. Also, I do consider myself mature. i even babysit for my neighbors little boy. Like I said, just someone charming I can talk to. Nothing serios. I already have a boy who is really nice boy. He's smart and has the same interest I have.

 It really depends on your maturity and the ability you have to be able to cope with that kind of relationship.
To have a close male friend that you hang out with and do stuff with, I think thats okay at any age. But to have a "boyfriend" which is more than just hanging out etc, I personally feel that you are mature enough to cope with that kind of relationship at around age 13/14, but again that depends entirely on your maturity.
You have to remember that having a boyfriend you will have pier pressure to let him kiss you and eventually do other stuff with too. You have to let any boy that you go out with what he can and cant do. Make it VERY clear!!!!
If its just a friend that you want, even just to go and have fun days out with, you need to let him know that him kissing you isnt going to happen anytime soon!
I hope this has helped, even just a little!
Good Luck!

 Hey. That can happen at any age, sweets. It doesn't matter how old you are, you CAN have a boyfriend. You've shown that you aren't as interested as to have anything physical, like; kissing, so really, you can have somebody to talk and hold hands with as soon as you like.If you would like to take things further, Just make sure that it isn't something that you rush into. Take things further whenever YOU are ready.Look after yourself anyway. It sounds like you plan to enter a very complicated game called "Love". I'm sure you'll be able to handle it though. Best of luck!

 I really think you should have a boyfriend at at least 15, even though I have one, It won't feel right until your older. trust me I know!!!

 I was 13. But i think there's no harm in any age around there. If you are 10 or 11 it is a little too early, even if your friends are doing it. But just to say you have a bf thats special to you and u hang out with and talk about with your friends is okay right now. But dont take it too seriously. You are way too young for that. have fun and focus on just being friends with boys.
