I am not surprised that coming from a girl.
First I haven’t seen a cross gender friend-ship as good as same gender ones. Its mostly girls clinging to boys.
Second guys TALK SHYT about girls who are not related to them. Only we have a code. Girls wont know it.
Third boys who take girl out without a commitment. Don’t respect them!!! The way they would respect their future wife. Mind it, being polite and friendly is not equal to respecting in a manner you deserve.
Forth in case you have many male friends. Your best bet is to find a hubby among one of them.
We guys are not into figuring out your different level of affection towards men. So a guy outside of your immidiate circle is going to look at you as TAKEN!!! If not by a man then taken by many men.
Fifth. Normally the girls who hang out with guys are not normally very attractive. Other wise they wont be single for a long time.
