Prince

I've never really had male friends. I have only one male friend (online ones excluded) and he lives quite a bit away. I've never been good at making friends with men...mostly because I don't really get along with them much. There are elements to the "male culture" that I just don't understand or can't stand... I can't stand sports, in fact I hate them all collectively, excluding badminton which I enjoy. I don't know shit about cars, know some about computers but not enough to want to discuss them. In fact, if there was something I wanted to discuss it'd be most likely poetry and music, photography and videography.

I don't like beer. I'm not much of a socialite, but I do occasionally envy men who talk about how they have such great mates, other blokes that they can talk to about most anything. Guys that would help them out if they ever needed anything. Some are even such great friends that they'd take a bullet for one another.

Females make good friends, they're often better listeners, but sometimes the subject matter discussed counters that. Sometimes you need male company, you need the simplicity of it all, the rambunctiousness (sp?) and the atmosphere in which you don't have to be so careful about the things you say.

Maybe what I am looking for doesn't even exist for guys my age (27 in a couple of months).

If you have a best mate like that, how did you meet? How did the friendship come about?
