So my problem is this. Before my babies and my husband, I was somewhat of a wild child. Plus, my the first half of my life, I was a tomboy. So even in my late teens and early twenties, when I was no longer a tomboy, still all my friends were guys. I have just always found it easier to get along with guys. I never got along with other girls very well. It just seemed that we had nothing in common. I HATE to shop, I don't care that much about fashion, and I HATE talking on the phone, ect.
But then, I had some babies and got married and settled down, and it was no longer appropriate to be running around with just guys all day, so I have started to try to make girl friends, but its hard for me. I always end up acting like someone i'm not, because i'm nervous. I am normally a very fun loving, sometimes loud, bluntly truthful person. but when i'm around a new girl or group of women, I just automatically get insecure. I feel like they are judging me, even though I know this isn't always true. I just wish i could be myself and make some girl friends who are like me.
Do you understand? Anyone? |
