I'm 11, will be 12 in November, and I have absolutely no desire for a boyfriend. I haven't had a real crush in....gosh, three years? Most people say as you enter puberty you'll get more crushes, but I had a way bigger crush in first grade than any I've had recently! xP I suppose I'll start feeling those emotions soon, but at the moment, a boyfriend seems like such a huge commitment, and a little scary, actually. So, I think if there's a guy you really like (and have liked for some time), and you're sure you like him for more than just his looks, than individual maturity is more important than age. If you feel like you're ready, talk to your parents about it, too. My mom said I could have a relationship whenever I feel ready, but some parents have an age limit, so talk to them about that and make sure they're OK with it. Good luck!
