All my guy friends are married, and I do keep a certain distance, so it's working really well. Ever since I have fully embraced the "quality over quantity"-rule I'm so much happier! It took me a long time to get there (but what else is new, I seem to be slow learner), but I finally got it!Miriamhttp://www.farmgirlmiriam.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1532204237192804954.post-60383520142410949802015-02-15T10:46:58.025-08:002015-02-15T10:46:58.025-08:00What a honest and sweet post M!

I guess you just have to find the qualities that you relate to (girl or guy). I always easy attract guys and get along with them, but my experience in the friendship arena usually never pans out and they always cross a line (at least in my younger years).

Maybe because I had mostly girl cousins and sisters so I was more comfortable around them? That being said, I was very picky about the girls that I was friends with. I'd rather sit alone and read than hang out with mean girls. Blog friends have been a real blessing - it's so nice to find people who have the same or similar interests and be able to connect online.

Or the two other couples would come over for cake and coffee. I had girlfriends until I was 15 and started dating. At which time they all ditched me because, as they admit now, they were jealous. So I always had male friends after that. I don't have that BFF that I can call when I am feeling down or to go shopping with. But that's ok with me. I do have 4 girls that I would call my girlfriends. They don't all know each other. We don't all hang out together. But when I do see them ( maybe 2 times a year) it's like old times.<br />When I first started on social media, I was very guarded on what I said. I felt that people would not get my humor or I would say something to turn people off. Now? I am still a little guarded with new people but the ones I have gotten to know, I am very open with. I feel those connections have made me a better person. <br />Great post Miriam! You are SO not alone in feeling this way!

I've got two older brothers and my older sister is a tomboy, so I've always been very relaxed around guys. Yes, there are the occasional few that I'm uncomfortable around (wayyy to cute to friend-zone lol) but the ones that I have made over the years have proven to be so much better than some (not all) of my girl friends. I know exactly what you mean about being suspicious of them, but I also share the comfort in having a few close gal pals and a few awesome friends here in the blogosphere!

I never really gave it a lot of thought but you made some really great points here. Thanks for sharing!

I also really struggle with female friendships and it has always made me feel insecure like I was doing something wrong not to have this group of females I interacted with all the time.Bailie @ The Hemborg Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16723431374621324385noreply@blogger.com
