Add me to the list. And worse yet, I'm attracted to women, not men. So, it's doubly hard in that not only can I not relate to or make friends with most women, but it's hard to date.

It does not bother me as an adult to not really be able to form female friendships, but it definitely was an issue when I was in school because when you're different from other girls they pick on you, bully you, alienate you from others who might like you, etc. I think the way I was treated by girls growing up is a huge part of the reason I don't care about making friends. I like talking to guys and have a lot in common with them, but I don't want to become too close to them because I feel like they almost always end up interested in at least having sex with you (been through this).
