Are most of your friends the same sex?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm a guy, all my friends are guys, save one or two girls. There is one girl who I befriended then gradually lost as a friend, then for some stupid reason I asked her out right after christmas. She said no.
T*at I am.

I'm a girl, and since I was a little kid all of my friends have been boys. I don't know why, maybe because I hate doing "girl" stuff? I hate shopping for clothes (or anything other than stuff for my pets, or video games, etc.), carrying around a huge purse (I'm one of the few girls in the junior high that doesn't have a purse. every girl brings it to school... must be heavy...), wearing "girly" clothes (I HATE dresses! Or skirts!! Or anything else like that! My favorite outfit is a t-shirt and jeans.), I love reptiles (I know most girls hate that kind of stuff); in fact, I usually have at least 5 reptiles around! I currently don't, since my ball python died, and so did my 2 African clawed frogs...

Anyway, right now, I'm starting to have more girl friends (I'm 12, btw). I still have a lot of guy friends, but I have a crush on one of them which makes things really hard...
I also seem to have a lot of friends in higher grades (I'm in 7th, a lot of friends are in 8th, high school). People always say that I seem so much more mature for my age, so that might have something to do with it.

I'm female and get along with guys much better than women. Women's social rules are way too complicated for me or they get upset over something that I have no idea about. Guys are much simpler - they don't play games, easy to talk to.

Some of the easiest people I've met to get along with are male to female transgenders. They're a blast. They make me want to wear makeup! I guess that's off-topic.

Since I have no friends (by choice, not by nature) I'll have to say neither

Oh wait, this isn't a poll

I've had very few female friends over the years. Their methods of communication are just totally over my head. For some reason, I can make a girl mad and not even know what I said...many just seem to be way to emotionally fragile! I cannot understand many of the "girly" social conventions either, like shopping, the relentless persuit of looking pretty, etc.

I have many male friends, mostly older friends that I have known for years. I bond with people quite well. In reality though, I think if I didn't perphetuate the relationship, it would die. Most of my friends don't really make any effort to communicate with me unless I do it. The small circle of male friends that do mutially perphetuate friendship with me show Aspie traits, so that's probably the reason why they can tolerate me, and continue to associate with me. These friends are non-competitive, relative quiet, and share some of the same intellectual power and interests that I do.

I've never really had many friends, but I tend to get on with females better than males. Not because they like me more, but I have a lot of resentment for obnoxious males. Despite gteting picked ono a little by males for it, I started hanging around with females around Year 3. They are less loud, more sensitive and more kind than males, sorry guys, it's true. I'm not in a good way now though, I didn't really know anyone coming into college and, though I like females more, I'm afraid that if I hang around with them it may be misconstrued as being pervy. Since I dont say much (havent since year 5 or so), it makes it worse as they fiind it creepy that I hang around them and say nothing, hehe. I do have one male friend though, but he's just... Different. Yes he is loud, no I don't like it when he sticks staples in his ear/arm/flap of skin between thumb and index finger but he's just so damn funny, haha.

i'm a guy... and pretty much all of my friends are girls

I only have 2 friends who are girls...the other 10 are guys.

More women than men. I wasn't into the "macho" posturing that was common in high school and college Part 1. So I found it easier to be friends with women than men.

Peace

I have more female friends than male friends because I go to a same sex school. I get along with the majority of my classmates because we can usually relate to each other.

What friends?

All of my friends are guys except for one, and even she's a tomboy.

As far as friends go, I've got one, I suppose. I've had her as a friend, I suppose, for a few months now. I am a male. Though I'm in Florida now and she's further north, I've been trying to imagine how this thing might've played out had she been male and not female, and I can't come up with anything. Most guys I meet or see in any given day seem in some way "stand-off-ish". There's an air of macho posturing, like someone mentioned, that I can't relate to. I never had a real friend before, and at the age of 23, I know that is a little peculiar. I think, though, peculiarity had a lot to do with us being friends. Anyway, I'm new here.

When I was school age, I related better to guys, especially in high school but I found males to be fickle friends. They seemed to be more willing to be boyfriends than just friends and they would always stick together even at my expense. As an adult I haven't pursued many male friendships since I'm married and don't think my husband would appreciate it. (He is a male friend, with benefits!)
This is a difficult question. I have had trouble having friends of either sex. I prefer males but this leads to difficulties like sexuality and jealousy. Women are so easy to offend and require so much maintainance. (also more unpredictable) What I usually have is one or two good female friends who are "unique" in some way: certainly not the average "lady".
