I've never really been able to handle girls for a long period of time without wanting to rip my hair out. We're loud, sometimes emotionally unstable, and way too sensitive for our own good. Most of my friends growing up were guys because they were just so much easier to hang out with, and a lot less judgmental. If you truly became one of the guys, these things have probably happened to you.
You don't have to try hard.
You don't need to look your best when you hang out with them, because there in absolutely no attraction between you at all. You typically wear sweatshirts and no makeup when you're with them, and they're weirded out and caught off guard when they see you in a dress and wearing full makeup.
They're overprotective.
If someone broke your heart, they generally tend to have a nice moment with you about this. He'll compliment you and tell you how great you are, and then end it with an insult, just to ruin the moment.
Nothing is censored.
You don't need to worry about keeping a nice image and not swearing, because they absolutely couldn't care less. Bodily functions are encouraged and praised, and you're really good at belching now.
You've watched and played a lot of video games.
Most of the time I had to watch my friends play Call of Duty, FIFA, Football or Basketball, and they made me play when they needed an extra player. You've seen all sides of the gaming world, and you still don't understand the hype behind it.
You can eat as much as you want.
They actually get impressed when you can keep up with them when you eat, as well as when you're drinking. You don't have to worry about them thinking you're a pig, because they really don't care.
You're the wing woman.
"Hey, have you met my friend? He's super cool, and he thinks you're really cute". Boom. When you aren't at parties, he's asking you to hook them up with one of your friends. Sometimes you come through, sometimes you don't. After all, you don't want one of your few girl friends being mad at you for hooking her up with someone she thinks is a jerk.
They talk to you about women all of the time.
Relationship advice, who they really want to sleep with, who they have slept with, who's being crazy and stalking them, the whole nine yards. The celebrity with the hottest body.
You had sleepovers.
Your parents really didn't mind because they knew you were up all night watching movies or playing video games with people you've known for a really long time, so they weren't worried about anything happening.
They get so surprised when you get a boyfriend.
Like, what? Someone finds you attractive and wants to actually date you? "But, you're like, a dude?" It's a completely foreign concept to them. They also feel like there is a competition for your time, which ends up being the case. Your boyfriend might even be uncomfortable with your friendships because he's jealous or he just doesn't trust them. He ends up coming around most of the time.
