Why are most of my friends girls? : Othor Games

Wait...You were in your shower thinking of your female friends?

Not cool man, not cool.

As Fenris would say, "Well that's... something."

I sort of know how you feel. Many guys I know disgust me. But I can only get along with females in a superficial sort of way, that is, not much beyond some casual conversation. My really close friends are guys, but many of my acquaintances* are females.

*By acquaintance, I mean a friend who is not that close.

I am a girl, and I much prefer being friends with guys. It just depends on your preferences. :shrug:

Happened to me a while back, and I didn't care. I just thought it was because most guys that were my age didn't know anything and were boring to talk to. So I went on to girls. They were alright but as I grew, men started to become mature again and women seemed to plunge into drama. But now, I still prefer girl friends then guy friends.

Most of my friends are girls. I suppose I just happened to meet more women than men, and so more of my friends are the former. It's not really even anything to think about.

I can't help but feel people probably think I'm gay when I walk around with four or so girls to most places. Oh well. :tongue:

My boyfriend has always had more female friends than male. It was like that before I met him and still is. I don't feel threatened (ok, I might be more alert when a new one comes around, which is not often) and some of his female friends have become mine too. He mostly have male acquaintances, but in the end, he finds it boring and pointless. Yeah, he likes hanging with guys sometimes but at small dosage.
Some girls prefer the company of men, like one mentionned before. Mostly to avoid all that "drama" that some girls insist on living :rolleyes: .

Those that think it "damages your manhood" are probably more insecure then you, anyway. Let them think, and be happy.

(My bf has three sisters, maybe that explains it... in his case).

Are you complaining?

Most of my friends are girls and I never notice, plus several of them are friends.

The best part is when your girlfriend has lots of girlfriends.

Can I have one?

I had plenty of friends who were girls in high school. They'd have me make sure no one broke into their windows at night ( I'd camp all night outside their window sometimes ), listen to their problems in the locker room and sometimes even ask me stuff in class, subtle things like "can you sharpen my pencil?", as if I didn't know what that meant.

I fail to see whats wrong. :shrug:
If most of your friends are rocks, trees, and mud then something is wrong.

Hey be nice to my mud friends, mud has a hard life.

We have nothing in common you and I.

I second that. Most of them are lisbians too and I don't know what that says about me. Girls are just nicer to be around I think. When I'm around my friend Amy for example I completely relax and I'm myself. Might be the case with you too OP. For example Ive noticed that girls never say directly to each other they have put on weight or whatever, only compliments when they have lost it or look particularly good. When I walk into a room with my male friends and someone has put on weight usually theres a chorus of "WHO ATE ALL THE PIES?!" friendly banter.

I find both sixes pretty equally obnoxious, at least here. The guys I know at work are pigs who can't stop talking about six, porm, COD, etc., and they become defensive when I ask them to stop with the first two. I also know quite a few who are good workmates.

The girls around me are melodramatic and go on and on about how such-and-such guy rejected them or some trash they had been dating for three days dumped them and it just drives me nuts 'cause they're making mountains out of molehills and they expect me to care enough to help them! Then there are the self-proclaimed gamer girls/nerds/tomboys, etc. My sig sums up my feelings about them. And then... there aren't any girls I've met where I live that I didn't find obnoxious in one way or another. I miss my female friends from Miami, Wellington and California.

I would very much like more girl friends then boy friends.

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 11:12 am

Can I have a few of your friends off your hand?

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 11:08 am

I got about a even amount of friends whom are boys or girls. However all of my guy friends (and most of my girl friends) will graduate this year. I will not. So next year I'll be hanging around mostly chicks in school.

Up to my early twenties most were girls. From then on most are guys. I think younger women were more fun to be around but as they get older they tend to get more critical and more serious. Guys never totally grow up. :twirl:

I sort of feel like they keep me around for a little security too. I'm a pretty average built guy (and I'll admit I'm a pushover) but I've been asked more than once to walk one of them to their car at night, maybe they know I carry a knife at all times :shrug: I have it clipped on the inside of my waistband and I got to find a new place to put it because the handle often jabs me when I sit down :pinch:

I have about as many female friends as I do male friends. Though I tend to prefer female friends because they are much easier to get along with.

I was in the shower this morning, deep in though (as always) I suddenly realized that most of my friends are girls. I'm a dude but I only have a few bro friends and they are ones I've known since elementary, but besides them I must have at least a dozen or so best chick friends. I think its due to the fact that I think a lot of guys my age are obnoxious or straight up jerks (no one on these forums though, you're all cool) dont get me wrong, I'm loud and goofy and sometimes annoying but I just find girls to be better friends and I dont know why. I even ditched my old lunch table with a few of my guy friends to sit by my girlfriend and her chick friends, needless to say my friends pulled the old "bros before you-know-what card"

Also before anyone asks I do not paint my nails with them and talk for hours over the phone with them, I'm still a manly-ish man I just hang out with girls more than guys and I'm wondering if anyone else here tends to be better friends with the opposite gender.

Firstly, being a guy who doesn't want a relationship with every girl he gets along with is gonna be a breath of fresh air to about every female friend you make. You may find your current ratio odd, but it's far from bad.

Second, your pals chanting "bros before hoes" don't know what they're saying. Bearing in mind that phrase refers to guy friends over the girl you're in a relationship with, consider this: who would actually prefer you being with male friends instead of a girlfriend? The answer is a lonely guy who's desperate for company, or a virgin who doesn't know why a real friend would actually say "Yo, go hit that". Either way, ask your friend which one he is, and he'll stop saying dumb crap like that middle school mantra.

Ultimately, no one should matter but you. When you gotta decide whom to hang out with, ask yourself who and just go. The only way to be yourself is to forget how to second-guess yourself.

I was far too subtle in my post. :biggrin:

Also I'd consider simply not carrying a knife around.
