I Like My Female Friends Better Than My Male Friends

I find it so hard to openly talk about my feelings to my guy friends. I have had quite a few guy friends in the past. One of my first ever friends, who is still a friend to this day, is a guy, and we get along pretty good...I just get kinda scared to talk to him about my personal life, such as dating, other friends, drama going on in my life...

Then there are my two best friends in the entire world, both female. The three of us have been besties since we were twelve in the seventh grade. I don't think there's a single thing I haven't told them about myself. We're all very open with each other. They're the kinda people you can talk to about your deepest, darkest secrets without having to be embarrassed. I love those two to death. They're like my sisters. It's nearly a year since the three of us graduated but we still talk often. One of them is in the air force while the other is at home raising a baby, but every now and again we get to hang out with each other. No amount of time past will diminish our amazing friendship.

Why do you have a hard time talking to your guy friends?

@TheImpossibleKid: My guy friends are just not really keen on sharing what goes on in their personal lives. We go to each other's houses, go eat out, play video games and go to movies, and we talk a lot about what's going on in the world and such, but we rarely bring up what we actually FEEL if it's too "personal".

@Caine: yea i feel like thats just one of those things that social norms have deemed not masculine. But you should be able to talk about how you feel.
