"Lastly, if you wanna talk about what annoys you about other women or particular groups of other women, go ahead. I have lots of platonic female friendships and I'm used to going into "girlfriend/empathy mode" and I can get downright catty in such discussions ("Just who is she trying to impress?"). I think most other guys' eyes glaze over in such discussions though."
You know, you'd be surprised how many good friends you can make by just opening up and ear and being sympathetic. I've got several close friends now because of that, and these were people who used to hate me, but just by helping out and letting them confide in you really gave us a good friendship. I feel most guys underestimate the power of just sitting down and being empathetic everynow and then. Hell, its been getting me through school pretty easy. Just my thoughs.
