Why is it so hard to have guy friends?

I dont know why but this is really aggrivating me. I do have a boyfriend who I love and would do anything for and what not. All through highschool and college I been hanging out with guys because I feel like I can get along with them better than girls. Most of my guy friends know I am taken, but they still hit on me and I have told them numorious times that I am not and will not be interested in them, but I guess they think with the wrong head because they dont seem to be getting the picture.

It sucks because I want to be able to have those type of friends you can go to when you have problems and they will be there for you to comfort and be there when you need them, but I guess it isnt posible with guys.

I have already lost most of the guy friends I had. Was it worth it I dont know. Maybe I should just give up on having guys as friends and try to deal with having girls as friends?

lol I know exactly where your coming from im 20 years old and married. I know im young but girls are so much drama and I hate dealing with stuff like that. I love having my guy friends to talk to when I need time away. I know guys can be dogs when they see us coming to them for advice thinking we’ll be vulnerable but if your guy friends wanna stay friends theyll relax.

Answer #2

truth is alotta guys have that problem b/c its not very uncommon for a girl thats a friend of a guy to be interested. I suppose with your guy friends they just had a difficult time understanding what your needs were.. those being that you wanted to have a guy friend to be there and put things in perspective if needed, and not somebody they cud eventually hook up with. while I have had to tell some guy friends to fall back a little, most understand what kind of relationship we have..just friends, but real friends. what worked for me was being very serious but respectful if I needed a guy friend to stop trying to hit on me. as far as just having girls as friends, I wouldnt suggest strictly avoiding guys, causes too much pressure and stress on urself in the long run if you deliberatly avoid friendships. it kinda sucks because sometimes it can be annoying or frustrating, so you def have to let the guy know what your feeling.
