It's not a sin, but it does sound like it's at a point where it's an irrational fear - which isn't a sin but definitely isn't good. I wouldn't say that if it were the sex thing alone, but it sounds like being close to men, in general, are a part of that fear. I suppose it isn't such a big deal if you aren't wanting to get married anyway, but it is if you are. The fact that most men want to be intimate with their wives isn't even really where you're going to find the problem; a good husband will love you even if you are not physically capable of doing that. The problem is a lack of trust. You will not be happy long-term married to a man you won't trust, and neither will a man be happy when he knows his wife doesn't trust him. But like I said, if you aren't wanting to get married then it doesn't even really matter.

no well if you dont want to have sex then dont get married and just be friends with men, you know, like brother and sister

intercourse isnt for everyone.
You can still have children, they just wont be your own (biologically) You dont necessarily have to give birth to be a mother. Jesus said who is my mother, and he didnt say Mary. He just said whoever obeys the will of God is the same as my mother, brother and sister. You can adopt some children.

You know how animals on the farm do it, well most of them get artifically inseminated, or they have this one stud animal, that they pay to service all the females. The animals certainly dnt have that much fun mating anyway, often they end up fighting each other to the death (cat fights are the worst) because they are over sexed.

also in the bible it is a said in 1 Cornthians 7 about how it is better to leave a woman a virgin and be friends with her than marry her and have children. I mean marriage ok, but unmarried relationships/ friendships are BETTER?

How can that be.
if you read closely verse 37 the guy has 'power over his own will'

now how many men do you know that have power over their own will and how many will try to pull your knickers down every time they see you. A very uncormfortable and awkward feeling I am sure is the man who cannot control himself.

Its okay too be scared. Just wait until youre fully ready for that experience. There's no age limit on how long you wait to lose your virginity. God bless you, and I hope this advice helps.
