But maybe it doesn't have to be.

I have been working on this complex I have with female interaction and friendships over the years. Although I had been harassed and betrayed and mislead too many times to count in my life (beginning with my Narcisstic mother), I would still attempt to get back on the horse. Have been trying to get on that damn horse ever since, never truly conquering it. I'm fed up with caring.

I have resolved to giving up. I will let go of all my judgements and inhibitions. I will be completely indifferent to this whole debacle. Female culture, in some aspects, is perverse and I don't need to pay that any mond. Also, I don't *need* girl friends, my SO and guy friends are enough. If the right female comes along and we click, then I will be open to that. I am not going to relate to feeling lonely or inadequate anymore.

If you have struggled with this, how have you dealt with your fears and frustrations in creating a connection with other girls?
