Men and Women; Boys and Girls

I find it so interesting to see how different the opposite sex handles things or even thinks about things. Don't get me wrong in many situations it is good to have opposites to complement each other.

I just think it makes so many things so mysterious. Maybe that is an allure. I know that Sean looks at things differently than I do. I guess it is good because at the very least he seems to claim he understands where I am coming from. I can see his point of view as well, but it is after he says things. I am talking about emotional moments, jealousy, memories, and so forth.

I think that because of some of the boys I grew up with I had a different take on guys and what they do or talk about. You see, I was a tomboy growing up. I got along more with boys than girls (with the exception of a few special gals) and have always been able to strike a conversation with guys much easier. This was never a problem until I started really looking like a girl. Then the other girls thought I was just trying to get all the boys attention. LOL, the funny thing is that I always figured that those girls were so much better in many ways than me that I looked at them as a threat... us gals.

But the boys I grew up with and around talked to me about everything. I mean when they were married they would talk very openly with me about issues or frustrations they had with their wives. They knew I would never tell or whatever. So I guess I thought that other guys talked to guys about the same stuff. Turns out I was wrong. I thought that Sean was just quiet or didn't know what to say to me. But, I guess I just figured out that maybe those boys I grew up with talked to me like that because I was in fact a girl and they would not have talked to their guy friends about the same sort of stuff.

So I guess I still find it a mystery as to what goes on in their heads. You know what they share with others and what they would if they felt they could. Us gals we are pretty open. Yes, even with each other!
