    Am I the only one who only hangs out with guys exclusively?

    It is not that I don't like females...I really do...I am attracted to them but I do not tend to get along with them unless it is in a strictly physical way...

    An example of this is that since I have started my newest relationship I have spent every weekend with my boyfriend and five other males...the one night there were females over I ended up have a drunken grope session with both of them.

    I don't know why but I have just always been closer to males...although I am closer to my mom

    Oh well maybe I am just reading too much into it and I should just be happy to have friends in general but I just wondered if anyone else is like this...

    I'm friends equally with both, just in different ways. My guy friends are the people I hang out with when I feel like relaxing, hanging out, having a few laughs...my girlfriends are the ones I get together with for advice, heard&soul conversations, or (of course) issues with men! I love having friends of both sexes :)

    I have friends of both sexes, but the majority of them are guys. My closest friends are guys. I don't get along with girls very well.. Or I do, but in general I just find girls pretty annoying. Haha. :D My guy friends are great and I can talk to them about anything and everything, more so than to my girl friends really..

    I'm equally close friends with both genders and all my friends serve the same purposes

    I only have very few friends in the first place, but they're all very close to me. They're all girls, but they're all wonderful and not the least bit catty or shallow or annoying. They're awesome. I tend not to even bother with people I can't get close with, male or female. I have a lot of aquaintances that I wouldn't bother to call up to chill with....but if I run into them somewhere I'll chat for a bit. I'm just one of those who keeps few but very close friends. And other than my cousin and my husband, they're all gals.

    I have never really had any close female friends i do have female friends but i feel more comfortable in a group of males... i always have had close male firends... i have found that females that i have befriended always turn out to be backstabbing or shallow or very cliqueish... guys are more open to everyone... although it is nice to go and hang wiht girls i much more perfer a night with guys just chilling out and having fun without all the girl drama

    i have always gotten along with males better..so much less drama. However i do have a few close girl friends that i really care about...there are still times when you really need another girl to feel your pain. Over all though i think i get along with my guy friends a lot better.

    Most of my friends are males. I always wished I had a brother? I got stuck with two cat fighting sisters. Oh well!!

    See for me I have one close female friend but there is something sexual between us as well so it isn't the same...I have never had female friends without anything sexual but I have never had a "girlfriend" either so who knows

    I have several very close female friends, but all my girl friends tend to be more high strung, anxious, stressed, bitchy, and really too much like me for my liking. :p We're great together for a day or so, but the one week I had to spend 24/7 with my best friend at band camp, we were close to killing each other. My guy friends, on the other hand, I could spend months with and never get mad at them once. I have about 10 "big brothers" who I'm close to and look out for me. Maybe it's because I always wanted a big brother to do that for me, and many of them transfer wanting to protect a girlfriend to wanting to protect me. It's fun either way. ^_^

    guys are great. plus, guy friends always take kindly to spontaneous friendly molestation. girl friends rarely do, and besides, where's the fun in molesting a girl? yuk, no thank you.

    hehe, my gal friends are just fine with random friendly molestation lol. My bestest friends in the whole wide world are amazingly beautiful and unique young women though :)...I'm definitely blessed to have found them both cause people like them are so rare.

    i prefer guy friends over girl friends almost as a rule. i think that in ways (mostly social ways) girls are more complicated and can get confused and spread chaos and 'drama' [​IMG]... i really can't stand it.

    Most of the women I know tend to be shop-a-holic girly girls. I don't honestly have any female friends.

    I like having guy friends much more. they're honest. If they don't like you , you know it. Girls can be so catty and mean and dramatic. They lie.

    I had a whole bunch of close girlfriends once and in a time of need they all turned their backs on me. I don't trust girls anymore. I met this really nice girl the other day. She's a lot like me and I like her a lot, but it's been so long that I've done something with a girl, I'm afraid to call and plan something to do.

    I prefer men over women as friends.


    On a side note, before I met my fiance-the love of my life-I slept with all my guy friends. It just seemed easier than being in a relationship that I knew would go nowhere.

    the other day i was introduced to a girl. she was crying because the girls she lives with are horrible to her, and girls are catty and mean, etc. she introduced herself by saying, "you probably hate me already, since you're a girl." i thought to myself that gender probably has less to do with it than she thinks... assuming the worst about people based on arbitrary gender differences is probably part of what turns people off from her, not the fact that they're girls. "why are girls always so horrible to me?" she bawled... while completely overlooking the fact that she antagonized the females she lived with, while being open and accepting towards the guy that lived there (who was responsible for a lot of the tension in the house).

    so when considering what gender has to do with friendships, we've gotta keep in mind our own actions. i'm not trying to accuse anyone of something as blatantly offputting as the girl in the example, but that whole incident opened my eyes up to certain subtleties. i wonder if i am less responsive to females, which causes them to respond to me in a catty way, for example. i wonder if i make eye contact with men more, or smile more, or make more open hand gestures. perhaps by not trusting females, my eyes dart around, thus making them more anxious and high-strung (and also less trusting of me).

    that being said, the majority of my friends are guys. i don't know why, it's just the way it has always been. but that does not mean i don't recognize an awesome female when i meet one.
