Yeah this is absolutely not normal among most people, probably the vast majority of people.

Not normal to be friends with any exes or people you've had sex with? Maybe not too common in ones 20's, but more likely by their 30's or 40's.

Lot's of friendships start with brief dating/hookup that doesn't lead anywhere romantically. And frequently major relationships leave bonds that persist after the relationship ends. I'd be hard pressed to think of ANYONE I know who does not have at least one friendship like that (I'm early 40s).

I'm not sure why you are generalizing like that. It's normal for all the people I know in my personal life.
