There was a time when I wish I had this letter. I wish someone had taken the time to tell me that all my worries and insecurities are not valid. I was the girl with only guy friends. I had a few girl friends that i considered my best friends, but in reality they were not. They were friends with me when it was convenient, when it fit their schedule. My guy friends though. Those guys were the most loyal, the most kind, the most forgiving, and the most fun people that I had in my life. They were always down for food. They were always there to beat someone up if I needed them to. They were always there to give it to me straight when it came to my boy problems. They were my best friends. They were the ones that got me through college and showed me what true friendships are. But, I struggled with only having guy friends. I wondered why no girls ever wanted to be friends with me. I wondered why so many girls entered and left my life so rapidly and without reason. I wondered why I couldn't keep girl friends to save my life. In the end, it was simple... the people who truly care about you will put in the effort. The people who truly want to be your friend will show you. For me, it was my guys. I wasn't made to have girl friends, and thats okay!
So I am here to be your voice of reason. IT'S OKAY!!! Stop pressuring yourself. Stop putting up with horrible, abusive friendships with other women just because you feel like you have to. Find your people. IT'S OKAY if your people are guys. It's okay if you are the only girl in your friend group. It's okay if you just wanna be one of the guys. It doesn't mean you hate women. It doesn't mean you are a s**t. It doesn't mean you are unworthy. It means that God made you to have a squad of good guys that will always have your back and will not walk out on you when life gets hard. Oh, and one more thing... LEAVE THE DRAMA BEHIND. That's the best part about the guys, no drama.
