I don't really think we are friends as in a "strong" and "real" friendship.
I think there are differences between "friendships" and "socializations".
I am fine socializing with women, like walking up to a female at the checkout and just being friendly, wishing a nice day whatever, small talk on occasion and smile. But I don't think there is much possible outside of that box or bubble. I mean we play together mafia and chat on neutral grounds. Tho I don't mind building up new friendships, but I am more careful than ever.

Why not

You voted for no and she's taken already

Maybe you need more hobbies

I like anime and games
I have hobbies like im into fish keeping and have a some light novels like bleach cfyow

but it's not that, I dont have interests mate

it's just that their male centric and generally cause of that im not encountering women


I have other interests too but im sure you dont need me to list off everything to understand what im saying
Tell me one girl who has ever went to the local card game store or local comic book store cause everytime im there not a single women in sight maybe they just dont like yugioh or comics


Or literally anything im to enjoy doing

 

[Rej]

fundamentally no, but in certain cases yes

just saying, I am not fully on no, but there is a funademental concept that I am voting for

 

[jinri]

Why not

I don't know you. I don't speak to you.

Idk what their contention would be with the idea
Mine is simply just lack of common interest


If you share the same hobbies or interests as myself then sure im fine with it
however if we have nothing in common then there's no point in being friends as there would be nothing to talk about

 

[Midnight Delight]

He's a guy

 

[Bob74h]

fundamentally no, but in certain cases yes

Yep
im the same way


in some cases it can work
but there's alot of complications with the idea like guys not being friends but being secretly into them and just the assumption of being together
aswell as just a lack of common interest

I am a gay man and most of my friends BY FAR are female.

 

[Xlaw]

I have no friends

There's also the problem of a bf
what if a female friend has a bf, he might get mad or jealous at you

I had a acquaintance who has mad at me for hanging with his gf, Didt even like her but that sort of talk with a girl can ruin friendships with some of your guy friends so your walking on thin ice sometimes

This happened to me countless times. Despite being gay, many were jealous and even violent. They thought I was pretending just to "steal" their woman.
