OP, the women I know who ask this are very one way, and rarely (if ever) ask about the other person. They can even come across as competitive, and are more "friendly" when you are down, than up.

My friendships that do span my lifetime do so because they are two-way.

The ones that have fizzled out, even after years, were too one way, and some might say to an extreme.

That, and people in this area can be judgy, presumptuous and some are users.  I have become better at gauging that, thankfully.[/quote]

Oof this comment is a doozy. You basically say that the only women who ever ask why they don't have more close friends are simply selfish, competitive people. But then say people in this area can be judge and presumptuous? Pot, meet kettle -- I'd say you'll hit it off but I'm guessing you're more likely to be frenemies.[/quote]
