I'll never be one of the girls

I planned a Mario Kart tournament tonight at a co-worker's house.  Nine of us played in a double elimination style tournament.  Spouses and significant others were welcome.  This is where I noticed that I will never be a girl's girl.  Aside from me, there were 3 other girls there.  I had previously met two of them from the recognition banquet and the third was the wife of another co-worker.  They all got along fine and I was the odd one out.  I admit I am more comfortable with guys and have a hard time opening up with other women, but once I do, I think I am likable.

Anyway, I was jealous that I do not have the ability to get along with women instantly.  I have been told that I am unapproachable and I guess I was doing it again tonight.  It's ok.  I do have female friends and the ones I do have are amazing.  I'll always welcome more friends into my life, but sometimes, I think I have to trick them into being my friends or befriend them through other friends, never just of my own accord.

On the bright side, I won the tournament!
