Different than Most Girls

     I always tried so hard to be unlike "most girls/women". I grew up hearing about how women nag too much, shop too much, gossip too much, cry too much and try to run a guy's life. So, I didn't want to be like that because I didn't want to end up making a man I may fall in love with miserable. I was "one of the guys" most of my life. But now I can't be. I don't feel comfortable hanging out with the guys now that I'm married because there was always at least one or two of my guys buddies that wanted to make it into something else.

     I came across a photo and a quote a few weeks back that really made me think about what I'd worked all my life to "be", or not be like. It's a photo of a row of forks and one fork is all bent and twisted. ( I'll attach the photo if I can.) The saying is..."Just because you are unique does not mean you are useful."   Wow...ouch. So I'm not useful with this philosophy I've engraved into my head. But I have a dilemma.

    You see, I've found it to be true about what I mentioned above about several women. They can't be trusted or be true friends...at least not a lot of those I'd found in the past. I've come across a lot of flaky women in my lifetime. I've found that several don't wise up till  they are in their 50's or older.  I like hanging out with the older crowd most of the time. So how do I find a balance? And where are the Godly women that are true to their word and won't toss you aside for something else that they "feel" is better or whatever it is that they are thinking?
