I haven't had a male friend in over 5 years
I'm M25 right now.
The truth is that throughout my life I’ve always had more female friends than male ones. When I ask myself why, I think it’s because I grew up surrounded by female figures: I have no male cousins, only female ones, so everyone my age in my family was a woman, and my mother was a housewife and therefore the one who raised us while my father worked.
At school, my group was made up only of female friends.
I don’t know I’ve had male friends, but their communication codes feel very alien to me, I dont feel comfortable . Also, my last two male friends… one was cheating on his girlfriend and I ended up falling out with him because I told her, and the other was a client of prostitution.
With this I don’t intend anything more than to share an anecdote from my life, and I’m not trying to imply anything beyond the idea that early stages can influence a person and in fact, I think all of this has affected me much more negatively than positively.
Trying to be fair, the signal is clear, the strategy less so which is why this is getting picked apart That’s what changes the context.
Trying to be fair, the wording alone shifts how people read this
At first glance, this solves one problem while creating another That’s just my read on it.
this depends heavily on what happens next which makes the reaction pretty predictable That’s what makes this interesting. Let’s see what happens next.
On the surface, this feels more about execution than intent At least from my perspective.
Just reading this, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage That’s the impression it gives me.
From where I sit, this feels like a half-step, not a full move which makes the reaction pretty predictable
Stepping back, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified and that tension shows up immediately That’s the key detail here. Time will tell. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
this feels rushed rather than thought through and that tension shows up immediately That’s the key detail here.
At first glance, the main issue seems to be how this is handled Interested to see the follow-up. Others will probably see it differently.
I get the idea, this depends heavily on what happens next which is why the comments look the way they do That’s what makes this interesting. That’s just how it reads to me. At least from my perspective.
Trying to be fair, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here and that’s where the disagreement starts This probably isn’t the last word on it. Others will probably see it differently.

Looking at this, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s where the disagreement starts That’s what makes this interesting.
Without overthinking it, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome and that’s the part people are stuck on Hard to say where this lands long term.
