I'm not sexually active or on birth control, but two weeks and the week before my period my boobs bloat really bad and get really dark blue veins?

Hormone changes: What you describe are typical hormone effects on your breasts prior to a period starting. The dark blue veins become more prominent but those changes go away after the period begins.
