On one hand, it's really, really hard to talk about your problems with men, but on the other hand, if you want to escape the drama, there's no better people to turn to..." How true. I guess this is why all of my best friends are guys. No cattiness whatsoever. Manipulation? Well ... it depends. Men can be very, very manipulative too.<br /><br />Having said that, thanks for the Italian sausage recipe.

But some, like my partner, are very much like dudes... she can befriend ANYONE and just be cool with them. Also, I don't think its being judgy, as much as being very selective and careful. I think, personally, as a female I have to be choosy because A) I've been f*cked over too many times, by both male and female friends and B) SOME guys just want to be friends in hopes of getting some *****... which was fine when I was single and free, but now that I'm married its a little more risky to befriend str8 men who are looking for a good time... especially because I'm married to a woman. You know the whole "do you guys share" thing gets really old and not that funny anymore after 5 years! LOL... but I can certainly appreciate a funny/caring/silly/easy going/genuine (wo)man. <br /><br />I have a wonderful 7 year old little boy after all!Annalisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589144729472463179.post-4150037966283599232010-03-04T05:58:25.936-05:002010-03-04T05:58:25.936-05:00Well, depends.

And I feel the same way as you that men don't need reasons or excuses to be your friend. I'm quite a blokey girl myself and I spend quite a lot of time with some of my guy mates and it's the most easygoing happy-go-lucky times I have except when they start doing the who's macho thing. But the men are idiots thing really only comes into place, I feel, when women are ditched. LOL. A woman's wrath. Gaaah. Well, I don't know. I'm in 2 places when it comes to this debate.

They are generally cool with everyone where as women sometimes size people up and tend to be more judgy. But I do have to agree that if you want emotional support, you should call your BEST girl friend and cry on her shoulder and take in all the "you're strong, you'll get through this" encouragement. BUT if you wanna chill on the couch, have a beer, and watch Family Guy and quote Stewie all night, then call your best guy friend. :o) I'm married to a woman, but she's anything but girly or emotionally in-tuned... so go figure. I guess your male and female (or masculine and feminine) friends serve different purposes in your life... and in return you give them whatever it is you're good at giving.Annalisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589144729472463179.post-75403509939877914882010-03-03T15:52:06.773-05:002010-03-03T15:52:06.773-05:00Jamie Oliver has some great pasta recipes!
