I've been musing about this a lot lately so I have a question for you all ..

I'm not on about acquaintances but in terms of your real friends, when shit gets serious do you have friends of the same sex you turn to or do you find in your experience that members of the opposite sex seem to be more empathetic towards you and are the ones that are really there for you ??

It’s my wife. She’s female. I don’t have close male friends. They are more casual friends.

I’ve been thinking about this too!

I have one best friend who knows so much about me and he gets me totally.

So yes he’s male, I’d prefer to chat with him than any of my other female friends purely because he knows everything!

I have certain debate friends for certain issues if that makes sense... so one I’d go to about family issues, one I’d go to about kid issues etc etc

But Him, I’d go to him for anything x

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

On the whole it tends to be men that I turn to, as I've always had more and closer male friends than female.

How about you Fucknugget?

I have a mixture of genders and different people for different things. Some people can handle me talking about a mental health crisis, others prefer to help with something more practical.

I have a few really good female friends. I'd likely go to them for different things at certain points. However I know that we are always there for each other.

I have a few male friends too, one I could talk to about anything. The others it's not so easy as we have previously slept together

I seem to be the speed dial 1 for a few (mix of ladies and gentlemen).

Takes me a lot to feel the need to pick up the phone but peoples lines are engaged when I try to call (that would be a mix again of the sexes)

I don't have any friends that know everything (eg about Fab).
