alien male friendship

male friendship makes little sense.

i have little to no friends at all. my social circle revolves around my girlfriend and the people i ride the bus with. i am in a very tragic position. what makes it much worse is that people who are worth talking to are people who happen to fall in love with me, that can't be with me being in a monogamous relationship. i am stuck.

practically, the only people my girlfriend is willing for me to be friends with are guys, even then they aren't the best people to talk to through my most preferred means of communication. men aren't fun to chat with, they aren't chatty as women. somehow, after years of being the friend people, particularly women, exclusively go to when they have problems, i seemed to have figured out how to "converse" with them. of course by "converse", i mean me just asking questions and them rambling on and solving their problems on their own.

i am in legitimate need of friends, and somehow male friends don't seem to cut it. but then again women friends pose headaches between my girlfriend and i, that's equally not as fun. but then we never get what we want and we make compromises. i'm lucky enough to be solely comforted by time in front of my computer, so much so that for the brief moment i am in front of my computer, the concept of human contact seems alien.
