I don't think I've ever had a straight guy friend

[melanie maritz]

I've only had like 3 guys in my life that I would consider friends, and I'm pretty sure they're gay, even though no one else seems to know it. (like they never had girlfriends , we could talk about stuff that straight guys normally think is weird , but besides that I just sense it)

of course I could be wrong, but I don't think so. So anyway, I never had straight guy friends and I don't even talk to guys or look at them if I can help it. 

I think I should try to feel more comfortable around guys but I don't know how, like is it my fault guys never talk to me or do they just avoid me?

I've been flirted with a few times by guys and I didn't know what to do because it had never happened before, so I think having more guy friends would be good for me but I don't know how to talk to them.

Sorry if this topic seems pointless, I feel like I'm not sure what I want to say but I want to say it anyway.

First, this topic is not pointless. You have something bothering you that you are asking for advice with. 

I really have no great words of wisdom other than just talking to them. If they flirt, flirt back if you so desire. The only way to meet people is get out and about and attend concerts, sporting events or what ever. I have met many new people arriving at movie theatre's before the movie and just talking to random people sitting around me. The more you are around guys the more comfortable you will become. They really don't bite and most are kind of cute. They usually avoid girls by themselves who seem introverted though. If you are confident and outgoing you will attract all the right attention. I am not saying you are not of course. The next time you are in a store or something just say "Hi" to a random guy and build on it the next time with others. Pretty soon you will be posting which one should I date as you are a doll girl.

I have never had one either and it is kind of difficuly, I can totally relate to you. I guess we need to come a bit out of our shell and just be a little more outgoing. It is difficult but maybe join a reading club or some other activity you enjoy so you can meet people. At least you will know that you already share some interest with all of them.

Best wishes message me any time

Remember this, nice guys are probably more afraid of you because they've been shot down sooooo many times, they are afraid to approach you. If a cute guy starts talking to you, smile. That will help him let his guard down. Talking to them, for most guys let them talk about their favorite subject, them. Ask them about themselves, if you are smiling, they will open up.

Hugs,
