Answers:
Those numbers say nothing to me, as I think in SI. But I think I can help.
You should get over it. Thinness has a lot of causes, from birth or from your surroundings.
To me, it sounds like you got this from birth. Some people are just skinny, end of story. Their bodies burn up the energy before it can be stored as fat. There's nothing really wrong with it.
In this case, I think your weight is fine. If, however, people try to achieve weights like this while their bodies have a normal body weight, then it becomes unhealthy.
If it really bothers you, go see a dietician.Health Question & Answer

"any suggestions of what a healthy weight is and why i never gain anything no matter what i eat or do.?"
Healthy Weight: a weight your body maintains while you live a life filled with activity and proper nutrition. This is not predetermined by some doctor or chart, but is set by your own body. Healthy is not a weight, it's a lifestyle.
Never Gain: You have a high metabolism. This happens and commonly slows down in your early 20's, so watch out. Health Question & Answer

you should be eating 1500 calories every day of nutritional food.
to gain GOOD weight that is. if you are over 13, start lifting weights. this will insure the food will lead to good weight. (muscle not fat)
learn about nutrition too. i provide two links on my profile that will educate you about food. once we know this stuff, we are now in control of our body!
you're not that far away from a good weight for your height. 115 or so. its difficult to say without knowing your body shape.
good luck!Health Question & Answer

Instead of shooting to gain fat, work on gaining muscle. That will give you some more weight. Eat lots of protein rich foods and do lots of strength training exercises. Health Question & Answer
