You all know that one girl ( or maybe it's you) that claims they "get along better with guys than girls" therefore they hang out with all guys and barely have girlfriends because " girls cause too much drama". These girls often boast at the fact that they are 'not like other girls' when in fact they are doing themselves a disservice.
Let's be real, ladies. Everyone needs same-sex bonding. I mean, no guy ( even if he's gay) will understand PMS to its core, know what it feels like to be heartbroken or cry with you when you are down. Why keep lying to yourself by surrounding yourselves with all guys who,by the way, do not think of you as date-worthy if you are included in their circle of trust? A guy who is romantically interested in you won't let you in on all the "guy code"
Befriend at least one girl who you feel you can trust and you will start reaping the rewards of same sex bonding. Truth is, if you can't get along with your same gender it may be something you are imposing on yourself rather than something caused by other girls.I am not encouraging you to join a sorority or change your identity but rather open yourself to the possibility of having girlfriends too.
Let's face it, biologically you are one of us.

Well I'm a girl who has always made friends with guys, and believe people of opposite sex can have a platonic relationship...but, I have a nice balance. I have my few guy friends who have been there for years and those girlfriends I can't live without. As we grow and mature, there's nothing like a bottle of wine with some girlfriends. Also as we grow, we find which girlfriends proved to be "the reason we don't have many girlfriends". But in the end, it's nice to have guys [friends] you trust enough with your emotions to give you support and girls to do the same yet each in a their own ways.
