So I met a couple of nice girl this summer, and I have a strong interest to hang out w/ her. I don't want to just be friends w/ guys, but I also want to hang out w/ girls,whether it be sharing feelings, talking, or whtaever. I just want to have female best friends..

Now, dont misunderstand, I'm not interested in her for dating or DHTB. I Just want to hang out w/ her. We hung out a few times, but only as a big group. Last night, I asked her that if she needed help finding classes, I will be available to help her find them, before schools starts. Today, there was no call, so she doesn't seem to be as interested as I am.

I want to call and be friends w/ her, but I dont want to scare her and have her think that I am trying to date her..........she doesn't know me very well, so she might think I"m trying to date 2 girls at once(my gf is not in town.)

anyways, my goal is to be the "big brother" type of person............how do I do?

p.s, she is not an outgoing person..........she is a bit shy........so it's a bit hard...and I dont know how she thinks.

Your G.F. will not be happy with you trying to be friends with the other girl. Tread gently on this one. :)

just hang out with her when you see her, or when you have something fun to do... don't just call up and force her to take your "help"

i mean lets say for guys, do you call up guys and offer them help?

just do something fun for a couple of times... or even study together...

I've pretty much always had more female friends than male friends. It's never been a problem.

Indeed. The whole problem is that one of you will want something else and it won't work as "just" a friendship.

Now, I have a number of female friends...but understand that they are ALL potential GF's that just aren't working out at the moment...but I would probably date any of them given the opportunity. These girls are not the same as guy friends, and there is no way it could be otherwise. That's not to say I don't have platonic fun with them, but it's not the same thing. Since I'm single that's fine...you have a GF...that can cause lots of problems, believe me when I say that.

Amen.:frown:

Obviously you haven't met many people in the world...

plu·ton·ic ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pl-tnk)
adj.
Of deep igneous or magmatic origin: plutonic rocks

I've had friendships with those whose origins were seemingly of rocks...

Perhaps you meant platonic? ;)

2. Pure, passionless; nonsexual; philosophical.

i started hanging out with a girl and even though initially i didnt have any interest (or tried to be cool and not show interest), and i fell in love with her and now she is my gf..

so be careful they can make you fall in love with them very easily.

Hang out in groups for a while, do stuff with a bunch of mutual friends, hang out in groups that include both her and your gf and treat her as friendly as you normally do so she sees you're not trying to cheat on your gf. Basically just get to know her in a comfortably, non-pressured setting so she recognizes when you're just being friendly and casual.

Hell, I'm moving in with one of them within the next 2 weeks.:D And I am friends with her boyfriend. Also another friend that is a girl might move in with us.
