You know those girls around school who are always only with guys? I think I'm one of those girls. The problem is, I don't even want a boyfriend until I'm a sophomore in college. (I'm a junior in high school right now), yet people always think that I'm friends with guys only to get with them. The real reason I have so many more guys friends than girls is because of the issues that I've had with my girl friends before.
Okay, so I've never really been able to connect with girls. I don't do a lot of "girly" things, like gossiping, having lots of boyfriends, and putting on makeup. I'm not a tomboy or anything. I just never really got into those kinds of things. The girls see me with my guy friends and automatically assume that I'm a flirt and my only goal is to get with guys, which is totally not the case. In fact, I'd rather have girl friends than guys. I feel left out and wish that I was more girly (ahaha) at times, but I can't make myself into someone that I'm not. When I try to make friends with girls (who are almost all girly at my school), I become this horrible conversationalist with no social skills. The conversations are awkward and boring. It totally sucks, and people always get the wrong impression of me. Soo...my quesion is: Do any of you have these problems? I know I'm not the only one. If you do, what do you do about it to change other people's assumptions about you? |

Yea, I'm one of those girls too. During 6th grade, I got turned off by all of my girl friends because they are too dramatic and were just always bringing me down. I would go on and on, but basically what's happening is the same exact thing to me, but (no offense intended) I think I'm able to cope a little more.
When I hang out with the very few of my girl friends, I basically act like the way I do towards the guys - friendly, funny, and playful, and my friends love it, which is how I keep those friends. Just be yourself, and eventually you'll gain those *social skills*, it's not that hard, really. |

Hmm, well. It must be hard in your situation. I talk to boths guys and girls. Sometimes guys are just easier to talk to because they's more easy going and they won't really make a big deal out of something. If the girls won't except you, then maybe they're just not worth being your friends. Maybe you can find a girl who has the same interests as you by joining some clubs or something, but when you do try and talk to other girls, just be yourself. If they're going to be your friend then they should accept you for who you are.

I am a little bit of both. I got as many guy friends as girl friends. Like my girl friend's boyfriend is also usually my friend so it all works out. I guess thats because I am really social with everyone
You could always try to make friends with your guy friend's girl friend. Get social with someone you usually won't talk to. Join a club or sport group like someone above suggested. Or make friends with your girl friend's other friends |

like people said above, join a club or soemthing of that sort to meet new people. Scout out for more people like yourself
But if all else fails.... (sorry i over use the quote way to much but it can work with alot of things, and its one of my favorite quotes of all time) "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.” - Dr. Suess |

Join a club or sport group like someone above suggested. Or make friends with your girl friend's other friends Well, all the couples in my "group" at school are the PDA type. They have no time for anyone but each other and they're usually making out, so I don't and can't really talk to either of them. Yeah, the reason I make more guy friends than girl friends is because they accept me the way I am. Most girls analyze you and gossip about you, and I don't like that shi*t. Don't get me wrong, I have girl friends, but I'm always hanging out with the guys, because they're the only ones that actually want to hang out. My girl friends just chill with me in my classes or maybe some lunches, but never after school or during the weekend. Godd, now I know why guys complain that girls are complicated. Thanks, you guys, for understanding. =] |

i'm kind of in that situation, but i can still get along with my girl friends.
yeah i too am always hanging out with the guys, i seem to get along with them easier than i do with girls because most of my girl friends can't stand getting rough and playing sports whereas i love playing sports. don't get too worried over what the other girls say, they're probably jealous too that you can get the guys to hang out with you and they can't |

i cant really connect with guys. i only have a few close guy friends and i lose all the new guy friends i make in a matter of months. not because we get into fights or anything, we just dont talk anymore. im really awkward around guys that i think have higher social status than me.

I love boys. I get along with them much better. I don't do well with girls because they always tend to take a dislike to me. I've always done well with boys, I'm the girl who always has a boyfriend or some boy in my life. When I was in high school, the girls hated me because this popular guy that they all liked, liked me. I had a boyfriend, yet they still talked trash and hated on me.
I don't do the whole make up thing because I like being natural, what you see is what you get. I want people to like me for me, not who I appear to be. I don't try to make people like me. When the girls were two faced to me, I didn't care because I knew they were two faced. I kept the relationship very casual and sometimes, I'd just ignore them when they called me in the halls. If people don't take the time to know me and just hate me for petty reasons then they can, I'm not going to go out of my way to change their opinion of me. Don't let it bother you, they're just jealous. |

i used to be like that. and well now i still am but it depends. like sometimes i hang strictly with guys and sometimes i hang out strictly with girls and sometimes its a mix. i don't know like i'm sure how you say you're not totally girly or a totally a tomboy...you still have sides of you that are more boyish and sides of you that are more girlish. so just put that into play when you talk to people. and don't be awkward and a shy conversationalist, i know how that feels like. like just talk how you normally would even if you're scared they might find it stupid. who cares?! just say it! =D you never know, maybe they'll find it funny and if they don't you can always rebound back ^^ and if they judge you because of that ONE lame line you said...then it's like major wtf and they're probably not worth it anyways.
okay that was really long, but what i'm trying to get at is that don't let it bother you! just be your ol' silly self |

Do any of you have these problems? I know I'm not the only one. If you do, what do you do about it to change other people's assumptions about you? I don't see it as a problem..I love my guy friends, they're fun to be with and just share the same kind of humor as me. I guess I am one of those girls. My mom always gives me a hard time about going out, because unless I'm with a girl or just my boyfriend, she doesn't want me hanging out with a group of guys {Or just a single guy, for that matter.} unless another chick is there. But it's SO HARD for me to find a girl to hang with. I only have like, three girls that I'm on a hang-out basis with. |

I had a party with about 5 other guys and I was the only girl. Everyone was so wild, but I fit right in. It was a blast. I don't see it as a problem. If you hang around boys and they accept that you're a girl, doesn't that make you feel special? Why do you see it as a problem? |

I have a problem with talking to girls too, thus my guy friends. But I do have a lot of girl friends now. Mostly because in science my teacher placed me in a table full of girls, and if I am obligated to get to know them, I get along with them and soon enough we become close friends.

The reason I think of it as a problem is because I hate when people think wrongly of me. It makes me go out of my mind and I think about it constantly. Plus, of course I want girl friends. They have good times that only girls can have and I'm secretly jealous of that. Sometimes I wish I could have the sleepovers/makeovers/and boy gossip and I used to have with girls when I was younger.
Guy friends are a lot of fun, I'll admit that, but girl friends are a lot of fun too. I wish I could be one of those girls who are versatile and can be equally good friends with both sides. Oh, I don't think I mentioned this but I just transferred into my new (public) high school from my old (private) one this school year. The first people to befriend me were guys and so I, of course, stuck with them. Later on in the year, when I tried to break out my "guys-only" shell and tried to make friends with girls, they didn't really accept me because they already saw me as a flirt, which I don't blame them for doing. |

I can relate to that. Sort of.
I know what you mean: you've got friends who are girls, too, but when it comes to hanging out, IMing and things like that, it's normally the guys who are there to listen, to hang out and things like that. ... Right? 'Cause I have a friend who's a guy who is always there when I need him. We joke and stuff, walk to classes etc. together at school because most of our classes are the same (and because we're good friends anyway), and everyone thinks that we're flirting and stuff, which is why some of the girls don't even act like they know me around school. I don't have a problem like yours exactly, but I do know what it's like to have everyone going "OMGZ0RZ CHRS && BIANCA LAWL" and misunderstanding... =[ It's hard, I know... |

I'm in this exact situation. I've always had more guy friends than girl friends. In my country, we were a whole "gang" and I was the only girl.. haha. Other than that, I had two girl friends and that was it.
Here - same thing. I hang out with guys because they're simply more fun to hang out with than girls. I'm seriously sick of girls. All they seem to talk about is guys, make-up and clothes. With guys, I actually get to have a decent conversation. My mom is always like "Why can't you be friends with girls! What's wrong with you?!" But I do have one close female friend and a few girls that I sometimes hang out with. I'm not a tomboy or anything (like you said) - I do put make up on, I do have a purse and I do dress like a girl, but I'm not girly.. I hate shopping/gossiping/talking like this: "AND OMG, she like TOTALLY like copied me, and like he was like SOOOO HOT!!"/etc. And I don't really care what other people think about me.. I have a boyfriend, and I'm not hanging out with guys to "get more". I don't even know what people think, honestly. Taylor`` |

You don't need to change yourself at all! If you want to hang arond with girls, then hang around with them! Invite them over your house, talk to them online, etc. If you want to do more girly things, here are some ideas:
-You don't need to give yourself a complete makeover, but you could wear a little mascara and lipgloss. -Wear flattering clothes, unless you already do. I mean like tight jeans, tops that show off your body, and accessorize. Go for pinks and purples. -Give yourself blonde highlights (I can see from your picture that your hair is dark) to lighten up your look. You can actually buy hair dye for $3.00 at any pharmacy. And if you can't do your own hair, get someone else to, like an older sister, mom or friend. Hope I've helped. Good luck!:smile: |

same. at school i hang out with all guys, and one other girl, so basically in my group of friends it's like...10 guys and 2 girls. since i was little i preferred hanging out with guys. less drama. but my best friends have always been girls, so yeah. i'm not girly girl either. i still enjoy shopping and 'playing' with make up, but i'm not one of those girls that wear 5 pounds of make up to school everyday. i dress casually, jeans, tshirt, sweatshirt, like regular clothes. i do love hollister. but yeah. i love sports and i dont cry over a broken nail...i dont think i've ever had one.

Hmm. I'm not really sure if we have the same case...
But guys at my school are just jerks <_< So, I don't have a lot of guy friend at my school, I'm 13 in 8th Grade. I just have a few... but I have MORE girlfriends. But when it comes to Highschool friends, I got more guys friends. So basically, most of my guy friends are in Highschool, like I was with Thai Club, && NONE of the girls talked to me or anything, it was mostly the guys, I was with them the whoel time. But when it comes to Junior High guys, I only have a few guys friends, not a lot. I don't know, but I'm not girly either, I DON'T PUT ON MAKE UP, actually, I even hate make up >.< But I mean, I do talk about shopping and about hot guys... but no, I'm not girly. I mean, I love A&F && Hco tho... but yea, I don't know. Welps, I hate wearing dresses though, like on Graduation Day, I was htinking of just wearing as pair of jeans and a shirt and jacket, I hate dresses <.< && I totally hate make up, eye shadow, etc whatever. Though I do use body spray and all. Sometimes, I even hate girls. Some are just soo vsbdchjsbdncjdnbjs, GRR. && but guys at my school are retarded... but maybe when I get to highschool I MIGHT get more guy friends. I think my case is weird, I only get along with older guys, guys in Highschool... |

And here I was thinking that I was the only girl that had that problem!!
I'm just like you, almost exactly! I think because I grew up with two brothers, I was always really tomboyish. I'm not like a... to the extreme tomboy but I don't wear makeup and I just don't really CARE too much for all that jewelry and girly stuff. Majority of my friends are guys, and my boyfriend haaaates that. He always tells me that guys and girls can never just be "friends". There's always a reason. But I've been like for as long as I can remember. I always hung out with my brothers and their friends, it's always been that way. I hate it whenever I hear about girls having sleepovers or "girls night out". I've never had those before and I wish that I could! I mean, although I'm not into all that makeup and girly jazz, it would still be nice to have some girl FRIENDS, you know? I do have some girl friends but it'sjust not that same... connection that I have with my guys. And oh goodness, a lot of the Asian girls at my school that DON'T talk or associate with me, HATE me. Only because they say that I am a flirt, a tease, and that I'm "too good" for the other girls. It's horrible because I don't like to be labelled like that, although I know that I am not. I always tell my guy friends about it but they just tell me to not worry about it, because I know that that's not true. Plus I can never really get along with girls around here. They are all always into gossip, trash talking, etc. It's disgusting, I hate being around them. They're just not my people. And if they are, then they are JUST like me as well, can't stand the girls around them. Ahh I'm sorry that I couldn't answer your questions because I actually want to know myself how I can attain girl friends as well. I just wanted to reply and tell you, I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!! |

Okay, a couple more questions. BTW, I'm so so so happy that I'm not alone in this. =]
1. Do you ever feel like you're weird or you did something wrong to make girls "avoid" you? 2. Do you feel more awkward around girls than guys? Yeahhh, 'cause that's how I feel. Like I said before, I'd much rather have girl friends than guy friends, because as much as I'm not girly, I'm still a girl. I still get my period, have boy problems, and dress in American Eagle. Girls are definitely the best to talk about these things with, and I wish I could have that. I have my sister, but she's leaving for college this year. I just really wish that girls were as easy to get along with as guys are. Guys accept you for who you are. Girls constantly judge, critisize and gossip. I hate how all girls say, "If you have drama, I don't want to talk to you because I hate drama." DUDE. Everyone has drama. It's a fact. Without drama, your life would be a boring, lifeless...nothing. Drama is the center of all girl conversations/lives. Don't kid yourself by saying you hate drama. It's hypocritical. Okay...I kinda rambled off there. I need to get some things off my chest, obviously. =\ |

i know exactly how you feel
when i talk to girls, they seem to be turned off by me because i look at things the way they are. The hard facts of life. I get along better with guys because of this. I can relate to guys because i can put things into perspective like they can and make fun of it. I totally know what you ;mean by the "drama". I dont really want a bf till college either, and girls think i'm gonig out with a guy just because he rides me places or we go to the movies just to hang out...not as a date at all. Then the rumors start. I cant really get into the whole fashion thing either. Like i dont really care what I look like. just as long as i look presentable. It drives my mom crazy, because when we go shopping, i cant stand trying on clothes that are in style over and over again. I just like wearing what I like. Also when we're going to like a semi formal ceremony, like a banquet, she always complains i dont have enough makeup on. i put on eyeliner in the corners of my eyes, mascara, and copper eyeshadow. She thinks i need the bronzer and loads more mascara. It makes me feel like theres something wrong with me because i dont want to look like a geisha girl. i mean i'm not like a tomboy liek you said. I like skirts once in a while, and like experimenting with different haircuts. I like trying on shoes too, but I never end up buying them because I know i'd only wear them once and then shove them in the back of my closet like all my other non-sneaker shoes. When i do talk to girls though, its like i feel out of place because i cant talk about who's going out with who and all that gossip. I mean I like gossip and everything, but only if it affects me in some way. Who doesnt like gossip? seriously i think my dad likes it more than i do. I just dont have an interest in what girls talk about. all they care about is what they're going to wear and how they look. the thing is, there are girls just like me at my school, but they're either gothic, do some kind of drug, or skip class and fail. I just cant hang out with someone like that because ya know...it'll drag me down. but i totally know what you mean. with guys i can have a decent conversation. I cant seem to connect with girls...they bore me...the girly girl ones that is or it maybe just because i'm a cynical, pessimistic person. : ) |

Girls basicly suck. I have alot of online girlfriends, and in real life, at school, I have alot of girl friends. But I never hang with girls. I love hanging with my guy friends.

somewhat.
guys are sometimes easier to be around, and they tend to be easier to talk to. their world doesn't revolve around gossip, drama, and whether or not some girl is wearing the right shade of compact. you can just hang out and be casual with guys. but i still think it's fun to have girl friends, too, because you can be able to talk about things that only other girls relate to. |

well when i was in school
i was the exact same as you yay hah. I just sort of got over it and just didn't care what other people think. Easpecially girls that sit there and get all jealous because im friends with the guy they supposedly love.. Although my only probably with it is that i would be in the middle of to much stupid pointless drama. so really i wouldn't worry about it. just let them think all this stuff and just sit back and laugh and be who you are. =] |

Well, there are a lot of times when guys are easier to get along with, due to the fact that yeah---they don't all of that girly stuff (gossiping, being boy-crazy, and whatnot).
But I have about an even amount of guy and girl friends, so..I don't know. |

^Yeah. I have an even amount, but sometimes I like hanging out with guys more because they're easier to talk to. And sometimes I do feel awkward around my girl friends.
I think guys are easier to talk to than girls.. it also depends how close you are with the guy. And they're more fun to talk to and joke around with. |

Haha, I had that problem when I was in school... It was hilarious though. I just let the girls think what they wanted to. The guys knew I wasn't girly, and that's why I didn't have many female friends. I guess the guys just liked to use my homework answers, and the fact I wouldn't spill whatever they told me... Maybe the fact I played sports too... hm...
Just ignore them. If thats what they think.. Let them. & I wasn't very good at the whole, socializing the way girls do, thing either... plus guys don't have PMS, so they don't get moody with you all of the sudden ;] Haha, and if you're desperate on becoming friends with a girl, just treat em the way you do the guys, talk normally, if they don't like you, thats their issue, not yours |

Ah!! It's the *Fitting IN* issue!
In highschool....I hung out with the party girls...when deep down inside...I'm really a nerd. I wanted popularity or whutever...and when i tried to hang out with the *smarter* people...they made me feel dumb...'cuz my friends were. Well...my friends did me wrong in highschool...so my highschool years are the worst years of my life! Now I'm friends with smarter people in college. I think you're doing the right thing...you're comfortable with the guys...and that's ok! you're in highschool...and of course most girls in high school ( i "used" to be one of them) have nothing better to do than gossip and judge. That's how high school is! Everyone is a judge whether you like it or not. Just be smart about it...don't care what anyone thinks. Those other girls ain't your friends...right? They're not the ones who grade your essays or wipe yer a$$... |

Oh yes. It spawns alot of problems when I actually am in a relationship. I get called a caker/flirt ALOT. And it's really annoying especially when I've known these dudes since snot nose days. Like with my ex for example. He'd get mad when I'd say hi to them in the hallways and it was quite frustrating because we'd argue about it everyday. And it got to the point where I just felt like dropping everyone and asking him if he was happy, but I realized I can't just x out everyone for someone that isn't guaranteed to stay and whatnot.

I'm more of a tomboy at heart.
On the outside, I look more girly. But on the inside, I hate drama, makeup, and people that use the word "like" and keep on repeating it over and over in a sentence. I may try to drees up all nice, but that's only on the looks. I have more guy friends than girls. |

I'm not like that, but I have a friend is.
She's just friends with guys and all the girls hate her for it. She's a great friend though, but the only problem is that sometimes she will ditch me for the guys but, like you, she doesn't want a boyfriend for awhile. |

Well, being as I'm in a Christian school with like Nine dudes in my grade, and that like two thirds of them think I'm a total suicidal freak because of Will (a.k.a. mr. bitchypants), I'm not capable of having many male friends except the ones that are my brother's friends... But personally, I like guys waaay better than girls. I mean... they're like more real. I mean girls are real, too... But there's something about how free they seem... Like they don't give a sh*t about their appearance or anything. And they're more open and crap... it's amazing.

Yeah, I`m a little bit like that.. I love hanging out with guys because they`re not drama-ish and i dont know.. Its hard to trust females over here. They`re messy.. but guys they`re laid back and yeah.. But the thing is that I can talk and hang out with both types of gender so yeah..

If u didn't explain b4, I thought u were lesbian. lOL okay. it doesn't really matter who u hang out with. It's who u go out that is comfortable. Maybe you like to be friend with ppl that is not GIRLY so u like to hang out with guys. I am kinda a bit like u too. Like sometimes. LOL!
