| Women with only guy friends Posted: 2/26/2006 5:59:16 PM | Wow 4 months and the thread pops up again.
For the record...some guys on here are getting a bit snippy about the possibility of women having guy friends bla bla bla.
I have mostly guy friends but my best friend of 26 yrs is a female, however she is just like me. I can't talk about men all day everyday. It's not what consumes my life...so whining about why Bob dumped you will go for about 20 minutes before I wanna put a gun in my mouth.
Most of my male friends have been co-workers..and at times I'm forced to spend at most 5 hours in a small room with them doing our job...and never once has any of them ever suggested anything pervy. In fact we even talk about sex...as to me there is nothing more fun than picking a guys brain about the subject...helps me have greater insight into men. And I've had these male friends for over 15 yrs..and have never had sex with any of them...or even wanted to. In fact we have been known to joke about how gross that would be...as since they are like brothers...that'd be effing sick.
The other women you speak of must be weak. If a man were to ever cross the line...he'd hear all about it. But again..you set boundries from the beginning...and you get what you give. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 2/26/2006 6:22:05 PM | Most of my non romantic friends are male. My reasons for this are:
-Less BS -Men don't care if your shoes match your purse -Men say what they think to you face -I play sports baseball, golf soccer and it's easier to get men to play
Now don't get me wrong I have some fantastic female friends that are the best and I have known for many years. The girls all go away for weekends together (I don't do this with my male friends lol).
So it looks like I am somewhat balanced or justa fence sitter  | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 6/8/2006 1:08:15 PM | | This is a touchy subject indeed, yet its full of holes. Generally speaking woman who hang out with alot of guys, tend to be at one point boring and not very intelligent becasue at one point they have a mind set like a guy. And guys who work on cars tend to be not very intelligent, unless its just a hobby. After all mecahnics and body guys are just what they are. Grunts who know cars. And every guy that you meet you use a previous yard stick to measure the new guy. Yet your profile description says other wise. A little blue book, says either one thing, you s**** around unitl the right shorty comes along and you hit the sugar daddy jack pot or you have alot of guys friends indeed. In using your profile as an example, how many guys friends out there do you know who are into painting or anything other than cars. Furthermore in looking at your pictures, DO YOU HONESTLY BELEIVE THAT YOU CAN ONLY BE FRIENDS WITH AN ATTRACTIVE YOUNG WOMAN LIKE YOURSELF. YOUR PLAYBOY PICS ARE SCREAMING F***K ME TILL THE COWS COME HOME. It would be very hard to just hang out working on cars looking like you do in those pics. After all you get what you expect if you look like that, you are only looking for one thing. Are you being honest in saying that none of your guy friends have ever wanted to go to the next level as in sex. And not to mention how long do these friendships last anyways. Its only human nature for guys who like you for other than cars to be like that and also jealous. Men and woman can never betruly friends especially good looking woman, becasue the sex part always gets in the way, unless all of your guys friends are gay or married. Most men are not stupid, and becasue of your many guys friends, it only seems unrealistic for someone like you to be without anyone for a long time. It would be very hard to be friends with someone like you. This is a touchy subject indeed, because its unrealistic, and everyone like you has there own unrealistic version of it. Beautiful creatures can do ugly things. TO be continued. | |

A woman who hangs out with men has "a guy's mindset"? Guys who work on cars tend to be stupid? A man can't truly be friends with a good looking woman because of the "sex thing"?
Awful lot of invalid gross generalizations. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 6/9/2006 7:32:50 PM | | Interesting points, very generalized, get out of the past man. Georgia must be a swamp rat of a place. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/12/2006 3:30:13 PM | lol i just want to revise my last post on this subject, I grew up too as a tom boy, playing sports and working hard, but it doesn't matter if i have more guy friends than girls.. guys are just easier to talk to, to hang out with, and easier to be urself with.. yes its a long ongoing fight with the whole, guys are "friends" with girls, knowing that they do eventually want to sleep with them... but all guys are not like that.. there are some nice good guy friends out there, and they don't have to be gay! It doesn't matter if i hang out with girls or guys, i like them both! :) so i'll ask you this, if im bi and im hanging out with girlfriends, does that mean they want to sleep with me too??? is that the only reason why they are my friend?? really guys and girls, come on, lets face it, some guys out there are REALLY just guy friends.. leave it at that.. | |
|
| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/12/2006 9:53:01 PM | | Oh okay so your bi, why didnt you say so, I wouldnt have wasted my time with you and all those emails. Other girls just come out and say it in there profile. No wonder your popular. So basically what you are saying is that you have the option of playing both sides and you can pick and choose which guys friends are friends and just in case you need some d*ck, you always have that option. Wow you have all figured out dont you. I'm so glad I took you off my favorites list, you are weird and stupid at that. | |
|
| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/12/2006 9:54:22 PM | I guess the question is really
Would she mind if you only hung out with women?
NOTE TO WOMEN;
If you want to NOT have a man in your life...hang out with guy friends. Its one of the surest ways to chase away the guys who really want to be with you.
So enjoy having a brewskie with your guy friends while your other friends get married, fall in love and have romance. You will be hunched around the TV watching reruns of NFL plays and your girlfriends will be out having romantic relationships.
Men, no matter what they say here, dont like it. Women dont like it when a man has nothing but female friends. The added snag is that the temptation is just too much after a few drinks and sooner or later, mark my words, something will happen.
Been there done that. If a woman cant develop healthy relationships wiht other women, that says alot about her. And its not positive. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/13/2006 10:05:53 AM | | BCDream..........I have lots of married friends.....who have guy friends......and their husbands are just fine with it. This is 2006..........not 1806. But then, nowadays, women are allowed to be in sports, and would rather be single than put up with possessive little boys with low self esteem. btw..............I don't drink, so the 'few drinks' thing won't happen....and...I noticed you are still single..........don't think you are in a postion to give advice about that. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/13/2006 11:05:43 AM | "Women can't get along with most other women... "
And this is substantiated how? I dunno, I thought passing sandbox 101 had nothing to do with gender.
If a woman has NO female friends, I'd be curious to know why. | |
|
| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/13/2006 11:11:24 AM | smile with your eyes said "you set boundries from the beginning..."
That is sooooooooooo true. Learned it long ago when I was in the service at 18. When I drew the lines, we all knew where I stood and there was no question. Got a ton of respect from the men in battalion, and still to this day stay in touch with a few. What I have observed is that many people are wishy washy about establishing those boundaries. Biiiiiiiiiiig mistake. Anyway, ^5 swye. Aw hell, that deserves a HUGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!! | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/13/2006 11:19:41 AM | Some women don't enjoy doing "girl" things all the time. If asked on a girl's nite out or to a football game with a male friend guess which I'm gonna choose???? The football game everytime.
Ever wonder what goes on with some of the "girl's nites out"? The ones I've been on? MALE BASHING, non-stop. Like they couldn't talk about anything else. And the not single ones flirting like crazy because they are in unhappy relationships and need the attention. Ack. No thanks. I'll pass.
I'll keep my male friends thanks, and the few good g/f's I have and if some guy is too insecure to handle that I have male friends, then his loss. He either trusts they are my friends or he doesn't, that's his issue, not mine. Guys come and go, friends are forever, regardless of the gender.

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/13/2006 9:45:41 PM | | i really don't care what u have to say, u don't know me, so stop judging me.. if u must know, i don't play both sides and i never go looking for d*ck. Just because i didn't reply to ur msgs in the timely manner that u wanted me to, doesn't mean u have to go and degrade me in following msgs.. really, if anyone should be listening here, it should be u, u really need to grow up and realize that not everyone has time to be on here 24/7, most of us have jobs to attend to. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/13/2006 10:11:01 PM | | I don't understand women that don't like having women friends. I get along well with women and the only guy friends I have are gay. Alot of the times, guys try to be your friend but end up slipping thinking they can sleep with you or start a relationship which is why I haven't had a straight guy friend in about 10 years! And if I need a guys perspective on anything, I have 4 brothers I can ask. I like having women friends. Plus I'm not catty, competitive, insecure, gossipy or jealous and maybe that's why I have many women friends. Not that I'm saying that is the reason that women do not hang with other women but it's been MY experience that usually the insecure girls do not like having other women around them and want to be the main focus of the guys attention. And before anyone get offended, that has been what I'VE seen. | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/14/2006 8:46:58 AM | What a LOSERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR you are, look at the forums hunnie, nobody's buying what you're selling.  | |
|
| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/15/2006 8:28:21 PM | Why dont you make it easy on yourself, to make it all more believable with all those guys friends that you have, just charge them for your time, in return all you have to do is get down on your knees and all fours to thank them. Its all there, after all you look like one and have the wardrobe for it already. I think they are called escorts, not to mention you can teach your girlfriends something new. See just come out and be honest and everyone will believe you what you are trying to sell.  | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/15/2006 10:45:58 PM | On the flip side of the coin...I have maybe 25+ female friends and only 3 male friends... The guys I really only associate with because of thier wives who are my friends... LOL
So... Hopefully if I do get in a relationship, my SO will not freak because I have all these women I talk to and hang out with... I think I am the eternal "guy friend" that women have. None want a relationship other than friendship with me. I am the one they come to when their boy friend dumps them and they cry on my shoulder and then go off and find a new guy. Yup... always a "Pall Bearer never a corpse" when it comes to women... Wish at least one would decide I would make a good boyfriend and not just a good boy, friend...

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/15/2006 11:26:51 PM | I have both women friends, and guy friends, although my female friends are much closer to me than my male friends. The ONLY time I have had female friends be "catty, insecure, or jealous" is when we were teenagers. In my experience, immature girls behave like that, but mature women are kind, giving, supportive and strong. All of my female friends are this way, and I am that way with them. The female posters who have only bad things to say about other women, I wonder about their choices in friends. To me it says more about the person who puts down women, than the entire gender they are defaming. I have male friends who are gossipy ... and female friends who like to rough it when camping (like myself), build houses (I've done electrical, mudding & drywalling, tiling, and painting whole houses with my girl-friends). I really dislike the generalizations about women and men, because I have never found them to be true. I believe it becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy.
my 2 cents... don't flame me.... I love men AND women (not that way, sicko... lol), and I believe they both have so much to offer when it comes to friendship! | |

| Women with only guy friends Posted: 7/15/2006 11:50:07 PM | | Its not a good idea for a guy to have female friends if their husbands are involved in law enforcement. Little tip from the Lizard. | |
