Do you tend to trust people of the opposite sex more then those of the same sex?
From my personal experiences…I get along with both sexes just fine. However, I tend to trust the guys more then the girls.
I am more reluctant to share my feelings with girls because I have noticed that when you do they stab you in the back eventually. Girls tend to act as if they are your friends to your face and then they talk about you behind your back. All in all they are 2 faced… IMO. Keep in mind that i am only referring to the “typical females” of course there are some RARE exceptions…I being an exception to that rule of course.
Guys on the other hand…are not catty, jealous, backstabbing, and/or manipulative…not with me at least. Not sure how they are with each other or other females. Most of the time I can tell them personal things and be confident that it wont get around. They are more forthcoming…and tell you to your face what they think of u. Most of all they dont backstab you and use what you shared with them against you for their own personal motives even after your friendship with them has ended.
I have made it a point in my life to never trust another female (other then my sisters and mom) because females just cant take seeing another woman happy.
If guys respect you, they’re the best companions and you’re good to go. If they don’t, they can be even worse than some typical females.
But yes, I love how guys in general are more honest and straight up; where as some women are tooo tooo concerned about not hurting your feelings. So-to-speak. :halo:
Quality women are also God’s gifts in times of need - they help you and advise you in ways that is more emotionally compatible with your mind, i.e. many times guys laugh off something that’s a big deal for you - regardless of whether it is or not - but women will make you feel better about it in no time. That’s important.
quality women…are hard to find tho. For me my sisters and mom are just that.. Maybe that is why I dont have the need or desire to trust in other woman.
Unfortunately I tend to slip up at times and share things with my “girls” only to find out later that I made the biggest mistake ever!
Ya know--i've noticed girls who have sisters kinda share the same mentality as you AE. In that they are not too close to outside girls, or have problems iwht em. Just an observation.
True - had great guy friends in college. They were more honest and staight forward.
But that changed once I had kids. I trust and rely on so many women. They understand me and my problems and a guy just could not relate!
i can see that happening.... because men can't relate to your body changes or the changes you are feeling in terms of family dynamics. BUT.....be careful because if you share to much....before u know it...they will be comparing their kids to your kids and saying bad things about u and ur children. It Happens!

it goes back to what i was saying.....girls with sisters dont have the need to confide in other girls. I however confide in guys because It is always nice to get a male perspective on things....and in general men tend to be more logical/practical in the advice they give
Interesting you say that - I feel the same about my sisters and Mom
AE one thing I’ve started doing to make life easier is restricting my social circle to quality people. It’s better to have 3 good friends than 30 okay ones. During socializing, never ever speak about your personal life and stick to speaking about impersonal things like healthy food, music, books and so on and so forth. Only share your life with <5 people in your life. Trust me Life will be Beautiful.

Angel eyes - it's even more than just body changes. Men usually don't get motherhood altogether. They are excellent parents and loving and caring but the bond between mother and child - most men don't understand.
You know when you are 13 and you can be friends with any girl because you both have periods. It's the same thing, with child birth. It's like a magic connection or something.
I do agree - I tend to stay away from the catty, overly inquistive women. You can recognize them anywhere.
absolutely! it’s quality over quantity!
I have many aquaintances…ppl that i hang out with but no one that I can call a friend It’s hard trusting people…especially females!!!
