I'm a girl who doesn't make girl friends easily...

<p>So last year was my freshman year and I had a good time with a good amount of friends, but the thing is most of my friends are guys... pretty much all of them except about 3 or 4 who are girls.</p>

<p>I make guy friends really easily because I get along with them so much better and I'm slightly flirty with all guys so it's really fun to be around them.</p>

<p>Girls, however, I find a lot harder to become friends with and want to become friends with. The two girls I'm closest to at school are like me (make friends with more guys) so I can't really increase my girl friendships through them. Also, girls are just harder to get a long with. I'm having a hard time further connecting with them.</p>

<p>Normally when I meet a new guy, I can always find an excuse to continue our friendship like studying together, talking about class, and then it usually moves along from there. When I meet girls, they're usually colder and I don't feel as comfortable talking to them/texting them.</p>

<p>I'd really like to have some girls to party with. My two close girl friends don't drink and party only once in a while. Sometimes I go out with a bunch of guys, but I feel weird that I'm like "the backup girl" or something. This year, I'll be on a floor of mostly singles, so I'm hoping to meet more girls through that, but I'm also thinking the type of people who get singles are not typically party types.</p>

<p>Any advice at all? Sorry it's so long haha.</p>

<p>“Girl friends” are overrated. I’m in my 40’s, happily married, and still prefer the company of guys for the most part. The female friends I do have are the same way - they get along better with men, too. Make friends with whoever you enjoy spending time around. Who cares if they’re male or female? :)</p>

<p>Thanks, coloradogreycat, I really do appreciate that. Mainly, I’d like to have at least a few girls I can feel comfortable with and party with. Haha, I don’t mean to sound like a crazy party-er, just that sometimes I feel slutty or something when I’m with guys all the time :frowning: . I made a bad impression on some of the girls last year in my hall because I was always hanging around guys and not so much them so they got jealous… by the end of the year I had something mean written on my door… not that I was extremely hurt, but I’d rather be on good terms with girls too!</p>

<p>Wow. And that is exactly why I prefer the friendship of guys. ;)</p>

<p>Yeah, I don’t really mesh too well with typical girls either. I’m queer though so that might be why. I don’t really chill with guys too frequently either…I tend to make friends with girls who aren’t really “typical” girls. Girls also get really jealous and can be catty. The good part about college is that there are lots of people around and you can always make new friends. If you want girl friends to party with, I suggest just making a bit more extra effort to strike up a friendship with them…it might seem hard or they might seem cold at first, but from my experience it gets better once you hang out with them more. Girls also just often get jealous if you hang around a bunch of guys, and they might assume things that aren’t true…unfortunately you can’t always help that though.</p>

<p>I’m also a girl that doesn’t make girl friends easily. I found at my current school that the only people that were even civil to me (with a few exceptions) were overwhelmingly male. I know it makes me look bad to hang out with just guys all the time, but I find them a lot easier to talk to. </p>

<p>I know it sounds weird, but if you have the option, you might want to try a women only dorm. You’ll be surrounded by other females constantly, and you’ll most likely end up being friends with a few.</p>

<p>Usually moves along as in what way?</p>

<p>^ Eat a meal together, hang out, go out on the weekends, stuff like that.</p>

<p>And I am living on a floor of singles which I think is an all girls floor, so hopefully it’ll work out.</p>
