The guy and girls

[Polo2847]

Do you think it's awkward for me, as a guy, to hangout with mostly girls? Sometimes I'm actually the only guy in the group at lunch. It seems like I get along better with girls than guys, though sometimes I'm annoyed by the chats about shopping, etc. When I hang out with my old guy friends back in elementary school, I get along great, but at my highschool, the guys don't seem to fit in with me. I do want to talk to guys my age about girls, and how to get with them, or like about exercising, etc. Maybe it's just that I don't know the guys that well so I don't really have a connection with them?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with hanging out with almost all girls. I understand you want someone you can related to more, that person being a guy. You said SOMETIMES you're the only guy in the group, so when the other guys are there, talk to them more, ask them to hang out, get to know them more. See how it goes. You could also start little chats with other guys in your classes when school starts again, and slowly get acquainted with them too. Social media, use it to your advantage, use that to strike up conversations. Don't say you can't connect with other guys until you've tried to connect with every single one. Trust me, there are a lot of people just like you, who would love to be your friend, you just have to seek them out.

Hope this helps. Good luck. :)

You're fine. Some people are just able to relate more to the opposite gender. If you're comfortable hanging out with girls, then good for you, continue doing what makes you comfortable.

If you're not necessarily comfortable around guys, then don't be around them.
Just continue doing what makes you comfortable.
Just because most guys hang out with guys, and most girls hang out with girls, doesn't mean you need to follow that trend.

Do whatever you like to do.

There's nothing wrong with that. I'm a girl and almost all of my friends are guys. My neighbor sits with a bunch of girls at lunch because he prefers talking to girls than to guys.

I'm the same way. 85% of my friends are girls. I just find it so much easier to talk to!

[darkie]

Definitely not! If you're more comfortable or can relate more to girls, then so be it. I'm like that as well, I think I can only count my guy friends in one hand. Don't let other people stop you from hanging out with them, it's your friends, not theirs, right? As long as nobody's pressured to do anything against what they want, everything's alright :)

I kind of go through phases. I never really had a "usual" group of friends throughout my school years, I kind of just floated between groups of people. That being said, I relate with you in the way that I don't quite fit the norm. I'm 18, but the people I converse best with are usually much older than me too. Girls are easy to talk to for hours, and many guys we'd be into it for about 10 minutes, only to end up dry "Umm.. weather's nice today :yeah:" Kinda sucks. Sometimes I wish I was better at that.

Don't worry. A friend is a friend, whichever the sex is. If you feel confortable in a group or team, just relax within that group...

perfectly normal but i'm just wondering if the other guys are jelous of you because of this and thats why they don't hang out with you.

This happens to me too. Some of my guy friends I know well, I can talk for quite some time. But mostly girls get a long well in conversations. This kind of reminded me when I was on Omegle, all the guys when they see another guy, they just click "next" or if we did have a conversation, it ended like ,"Well it's nice talking to ya..." But with girls, I've talked with them for almost 30 minutes laughing and talking.

Lol Omegle yes! Sometimes I do it with friends, sit around a table and surf endlessly for the heck of it. It's always "gay" to stop and talk to a guy for some reason, and they will "Next" until they find a nice bunch of girl(s).. :yawn:

Except once, this awesome dude from Northern Europe or something drew all of us!
