I can only agree. Your happiness is the only thing that matters when it comes to dating, and if this hasn't bothered you before, then you shouldn't feel shamed by your friends. I only had my first boyfriend was I was sixteen, and actually I wish I hadn't, it didn't go well and I felt too young at the time. It is an entirely personal choice, and sometimes it takes a lot longer to find the right person for you, but that's totally ok. Just make sure youre happy, and thats all you need
