Does anyone else have problems making girl friends?

Question

I don't know what it is, it might just be me. But girls never seem to like me? I don't know if it's because I have loads of male friends or what, they just never get on with me.
I've been told by my male friends it's because "I'm one of the lads". I grew up with brothers and I've always been one of the girls that would rather go dirt biking than getting my nails done. My boyfriend loves that I get on with guys as his past girlfriends didn't get on with his friends. But it's really hard to speak to a guy about girl things i.e periods, discharge etc.
Does anyone else have this problem or am I just strange? 🤔

Answer

I'm like this as well. To be completely honest I'm a very chill person especially for a girl, I hate drama and caddy-ness which I find all too much with other women. I'm very much into girly things like shopping and heels and getting my nails done but despite all of that I work in a shop with a bunch of guys. Never been happier with a group of coworkers before in my life. I also find men think it's really attractive that you can always get along with their friends! Don't get me wrong, I have a small (and I mean like 2 or 3) group of girlfriends I can connect with quite well but overall get along much easier with men. You're not alone!

Answer

I have this exact problem. It's especially hard because I moved to a new city about six months ago and instantly made friends with all of my male coworkers, which makes my boyfriend a little uncomfortable. Now I'm actually starting to make friendships with a couple of the girls I work with. It took a while though. I have found that if you are trying to make friends with a girl try to find one common interest (for me it was the show Vanderpump Rules) and then build off of that.

Answer

I have maybe one female friend. And it's only because I've known her since the 4th grade and she's got the same sense of humor. I'm not big into the things college girls are in to. Honestly, I don't even know how to hang out with girls sometimes. I play WoW in my pj's most days with my dude friends. Haha

Answer

I have no female friends that I'm not related to, if you can call those people friends lol. I tend to have so much better luck with males. They are real with me and sweet, but aren't two faced and are usually much more comfortable with little to no interaction. I wouldn't call incompatibility with women a problem. More like it's their problem they're missing out on you.

Also, some guys are hilarious talking about periods if they know you're comfortable with it. You might be surprised. 😊

Answer

I grew up with sisters, I don't have many guy friends, and I still have a hard time making friends with other girls. I just can't seem to find anything in common with girls I meet or try to hang out with. I'm fairly nerdy and don't care much for talking about guys or make up or celebrities. I know that's not what all girls talk about but I just know how to talk to other women. I get a long great with older people (middle aged coworkers and family members) and children but I can't seem to get along with other women my age. I'm almost 24 and should be able to make friends but just can't.
