[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a guy with lots of female friends and very few female friends. I find many (not all) men difficult to socialize with, and just click better with women. I often end up better friends with my wife's female friends than she does, but I've never cheated on her with any of them.[/quote]

not being snarky- but have you cheated on her with someone else?

I guess that men who socialize a lot with ladies are constantly putting out feelers to see who might be interested. And then, because of my own insecurities and I respond to those signals (instead of waiting for someone who is ACTUALLY interested in me, vs. just interested in female attention) so we date and then the cycle repeats.

No, I've never cheated on her with anyone. I just don't really like men; there's often an undercurrent of aggression in a lot of male social relationships, half of it is built around jokes I'm not sure how to respond to. I find women much easier to relate to, and I also tend to find they have more interesting internal lives. This might have started as looking for women to date, like in high school (I definitely befriended women I was interested in then, although it was never all of my female friends), but at this point I've been married for decades and I'm not looking for dates, I'm looking for friends who don't stress me out and they're mostly women.[/quote]
