How do I make new friendships with girls without seeming like I want to "get" with them?
For a while in my life I didn't interact with many people and forgot how to make friends. I came back to my old friends after a while and we all got along again, during that same time period I got myself a girlfriend and we've now had a healthy loving relationship 1.5 years. I've made some new male friends ever since but I can't seem to build any friendship with women, for some reason I feel like I'm coming off in a wrong way and can't get past this. I can talk to men, I can talk to women, I can talk to people. But I can't seem to build any friendships with the opposite sex. Help.
When you talk to women, bring up your girlfriend casually. Most of the time they'll get the message
Why would you want to be friends with females?
Are you gay?
Men and women can't be real friends. Someone's girlfriend "hanging out with the guys" doesn't count, nor does the extremely effeminate homosexual men who hang around girls.
