Thank you A I appreciate your insight. I was thinking the same thing myself (late bloomer). I just wish this would’ve happened a little earlier in my life. I have historically always had a lot of male friends, but now I’m starting to believe that I need that female friend like you have. Someone who can just be there when none of the emotions I have make sense. Guys I have found tend to believe there should be a reason to what you are feeling, and reality is there is no reason. I just want to cry. It’s really nice of them that they try to help though. You are right about loving myself for who I am. There are things I am working to change about myself to improve the person I am. Thanks again! Oh and yes the guys I am close with do respect me. 🙂
