Hi all. For me, I like having more girls as friends then I do guys and do have more girls as friends then I do guys. In my oppinion girls are more caring, affectionate, understand, and listen and understand better. Is it just a theory? or do you girls feel the same about us guys as we do you girls.

I have more guy friends than girls. I'm more into thinking and sharing ideas and just having conversations, and plus most girls I do know are in relationships, so I guess it's hard to even relate to that since I've never been in a serious one and have only had one boyfriend at all and for a very short time. So, I guess it's just seems easier to have conversations with guys, and I guess that's why I have more guy friends. *smiles*

At the mo, I'd say that I have about as many female friends as male friends. I don't think it's the genda that really matters, though I don't like boys with an agressive self-centred attitude and I don't like girls who are very into feminism or who are immiture giddy or the type who say bad things about you behind your back and say different when your listening. I don't like guys who luck at women as sex objects and I don't like women who go to devious lengths to get what they want.

hmmm... ya well in the past i grew up w/ girls who wouldnt accept who i was and am, so i kinda was left in the outcast croud w/ a buncha boys and sometimes a few girls... and i used 2 b a girly girl but ever since i started hanging w/ them boys i kinda turned in2 a tomboy lol... now i go 2 school w/ a totally diff. crowd so the girls and the guys r diff. but guys r still cool and now so r the girls. since i basicaly grew up w/ boys i rel8 2 them better... and still sometimes i find that my girl friends tend 2 stomp on opinions i may have... like this 1 girl ive known since i was 7, well she and i get in2 religious debates sometimes and well, i dun stomp on her opinion but she just... stomps all over mine. heheh im used 2 it now so it dun matter but... my point would b that i think that even tho guys may have diff. opinions theyre willing 2 listen, most of em, w/o stomping on my opinion, and that is from personal experience. 4 example i have this friend named juan (no not any juans on the zone) and i was realy depressed about things specially bout losin my sight and i just ended up pouring my heart out 2 him and he looked me straight in the face, i could c that, even tho hes total... and i realized i was about 2 cry and tried 2 hold myself 2gether and he said... cry if u need 2 and i said o im so sorry i hadnt planned 2 go on an emotional thing here and hes all haha its ok... im honored that ure telling me all these things, i really am...

Well, most of my friends are guys, I jsut can't help it. I'm not a girlie girl at all, and it seems like a lot of girls are just into make up. However the girl friends I have, at school, in my area and online too (cough cough, my zone friends), are great, and accept me, and I love them! Rotfl! Anyway, i think it's great to have friends of the opposite gender, I don't care what other people say. Like people tease me and say that they're my boyfriends but they're not. I'm not even into dating, BF's, etc, at all yet. So lol. That's just too bad for them, let them believe what they want! Lolrwlrwlrwlrwlwrlwrlwlrlwrlw! Heheh MelMel, I looove that...

I think I can all to well relate to The Song Writer. I grew up mostly with the boys understanding and accepting me. The girls didn't want anything to do with me, so, I tend to get along tons better with guys. I sometimes think that most guys simply are more kind and considerate then they're given credit for. *smile*

I have more guy friends than girls defs!! It's probably the stuff i'm into (trance, sci fi, computers) lol. I have a couple of girl friends but they're really deep intellectual types. I have some friends who would be called girlie but we don't havg out much, they're mostly people I've known in high school. I think guys just get where I'm coming from most of the time, and yes guys are way more caring than people give them credit for. smile

Well, I've had more female friends than male ones for a good bit of my life. Was never into the whole macho, sports-obsessed, male bonding thing. Girls were easier to talk to and were nicer. Plus I guess I just didn't want to become the kind of male jerks I did see around, and they'd most likely ahve thought me a geek in the first place, so no matter.

My French teacher has this thing. She keeps saying Derek and I should go out. It's so not ever going ot happen. We're like brother and sister, and that would just be freaky and bad to go out with your sibling! It's like illegal!

Well, I grew up with alot of girls, so most of my friends are girls. I've for as long as I remember wanted to have more guy friends because alot of girls are just to caddy, annoying, or not into the things i'm into. I have like one guy friend. We're really close and maybe if I wasn't so shy, I would have alot of guy friends. I tend to be very quiet around people alot of the time, but when I'm with whatever genderi'm comfortable around, I'm not shy at all. I really wish I had more guy friends though, it would be wicked.

i have more guy friends then chicks. i think its because all chicks do is gosip about other chicks. and dudes are just happy go lucky! and dudes are more fun to be around. and also, im kind of different from caitlin. she has all these guy firends and there only friends where as im a flirt around the dudes. lol! yup. im weird. -Heather

Caitlin, your french teacher sounds really nice. my french teacher was a Bitch! she would give us a sheet of like, 30 french words about say "learn it! test tomorrow!" and I cheated soooo many times and still failed the class! lmao. the was a waste of time. ok enough off topic. bye

LOL Langueperson... (I just thought of that!) Go me! Anyway, yes I have mostly friends that are girls. Why you ask? Its real simple I think. Guys just most of them are mocho, not me... Guys like to treat women as sex objecrts, and drink beer. NO beer is good but women shouldn't be treated like that. Guys are also into sports, and well that is so not me. I like the guys that would be more into things suc h as phycoligy, and guys that are open about there felings. I have not found anyone that is my age that is like this yet, however, I've found that older guys are more open by a long shot. I can talk to older guys ab out family, the kids, the house, the wife, work, etc. Things I cn relate too. I'd like to have more guy friends though... Would be way cool. D Troy, I know you buddy, and youa are one cool dude, though I have not talked you in a while man. Peace out people! And oh yeah didn't I just say I was going to go to sleep? LOL

I'm in high school. I was lucky enough to find friends that understand me and like me for who I am. I know a lot of blind and visually impaired teenagers and adults that tell you high school was their outcast years. Most of my friends are girls. But out of school I tend to hang with guys more. I think a lot of girls are really catty, and it's hard to find a genuinely good friend that's a girl. Guys are more likely to consider me their equal and not sugarcoat everything. I'm very liberal, and a lot of girls can't accept that.

Melmel! We wouldnt' be cute! Gimme a break! lol! But at least ya get my nub and thrust. Lol. And yes, girls are just way too dramatic. At least my age. I get along with lots of older girls, like my zoner pals, and younger ones, like my zoner pals. Lol! It's jsut girls my age. They're all into fashion and boyfriends. And I'm just not. It's not who I am.

Yeah I have more friends that are guys then friends that are girls. I guess it is because I feel that they listen to me more then girls do and they have this careing / loving side to them mor so then girls do.

Well, in Germany, I have more girls. But when I was in England for six weeks, I hung out with both, guys and girls. Personally I don#t really like boys who think they are the coolest and the best, but I also don't like girls who always talk about anyone and spreading rumours all the time.

Yeah, I have more guy friends than I have girl friends. I think I relate to guys better. I think its my dirty sense of humor (lol.) But seriously, since I'm in high school, most of the girls I know are so obsessed with their makeup, hair, etc. and that's not for me. I think I'm more mature than they are, so thats why I cant really relate to them....Not that I'm too good for them, and the guys I hang with are those outcast guys who are the "nice guys" who always end up getting called gay...

For a while, I had more girls than guys as friends. Now, it's about equal, as I finally discarded the whole "You can't just hang out with guys attitude" from middle/high school. Back then, the cafeteria was so segregated by race and gender. Now in college (or outside of college while I was in regular school), it's better. I find it easier to make friends of both genders. Also, if/when I get married, I'm not going to stop hanging out with guys. I might even be, gulp, alone with another guy, just to hang out. It's harder for me to find friends, I'm not like a lot of people, and I'm not going to cut off half the population and be controlled like that. Instead, we'll both be honest with each other and talk about what we did with our friends, and spend most of our free time together. We'll have more to talk about though if we spend some time apart. That's one value I won't compromise on.

Well I don't like the guys in my school, they're mentally retarted, lol. But if there were some cool guys, I certainly would hang around with them, I have a bit of dirty sence of humour as well and I can't stand girls who are talking about everyone and anyone, gossipping and doing all of that. I'm also not that much into clothes shopping.

Post 21 by asdfghjkl (Account disabled) on Sunday, 20-Mar-2005 12:22:32

Amen, Sista! I can't stand all that gossip and crap like that; it makes me sick! I've been a victim of those girls, and I dispise it! I also like dirty jokes, as long as they don't go way too far, I like getting dirty as in playing outside as long as I don't bump into a tree, pole, kid, or fall in a ditch, I like rockets and heavy metal and crazy stuff like I'd play with fire if I had an older bro,... there's so many things. I dispise girl clothes on me, and makeup as well. And I can't stand it when the girls at my school are soo shallow.

Gossip is hte lose. Hehehe. And ya some guys aren't nice but you know, there's soem out there that are nice. There's good guys and good girls and bad guys and bad girls! So take yoru pick! lollollol jk!
