In high school, I didn't even give it a second thought. Then one day, while in college I looked at my cell phone contacts (and later my facebook friends) and I realized that only about 30% (sometimes its even lower) of my friends are girls.

I should also mention, that the members of this group will (even if only unconsciously) judge me on my ability to relate to not only males but females as well. It is sort of expected that I will have basic skills in socializing with women (which I don't). |

In just two days, I'll begin another year of college. There are lots of things going on in the days before and the first few days after class begins. Some are sponsored by the school, others are things like house parties. Socially, I have done much better than I expected.. In part, because of the fa... |

We first met each other in high school through short three day summer camps. We saw each other there and talked a little bit btu I didn't pay too much a... |
