I'm A Girl Who Is One Of The Guys, And That's Okay

I'm thankful that I've learned that being one of the guys isn't a negative thing.

Being the only girl in a group of guys is a pretty cool experience. Ever since I was a little kid, I've been more comfortable around a group of guys than a group of girls. I played baseball on an all boys team for five or more years, had more guy friends than girl friends, and just all around got along better with guys than girls. This has definitely carried on into my adult life. If I'm not with my roommate, you'll most likely find me with a group of guys having a good time.

I used to think that there was something wrong with me since I couldn't get along with girls that well, but the older I've gotten the more I've realized that it's okay to have more guy friends even though I'm a girl. This isn't to say that I hate having girl friends. I just prefer to be one of the guys because I feel like I can be more of myself around them. A lot of girls are into all the shopping and makeup things that are typically deemed "girly," but I'm more into just chilling on a couch and playing video games.

In my 19 years, I've been one of the guys more often than not and that's okay. That's something I've come to love and a feeling that's like no other. I love being around people that I can have a good time with and it seems like I've found those people in Indianapolis as well as in my hometown of Richmond. Maybe down the line I'll be one of the girls, but for now, I'm totally content with just being one of the guys.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
