If you prefer the company of men, there's nothing wrong with that. Stick with what you like (men) and avoid people you don't like so much (women) and you'll stop having these types of problems.

No one is forcing you to hang out with anyone whose company you don't enjoy or have anything in common with.

Especially since he already have social issues to begin with.

well, the fact that i'm limited with things to talk about to her because she's just not interested in or doesn't feel like talking about is more than enough for me to make that assessment. i guess i should start talking to her about her bracelet, her shoes or whatever then have her talk about herself. then when i feel like talking about something such as my life, what i want to do, music or something else, i can watch her get bored because she really has nothing to talk about other than herself. i guess i'm wrong for wanting something more out of her mouth other than her talking about guys she likes or about herself.

I'd go even farther and sometimes not speaking is the smartest thing to do, especially if you are not well informed on a particular subject.

Her? Are you speaking of a particular individual? If so, I'm not sure why you are extrapolating "her", or the women within arms reach of you, onto an entire gender. And just because a person has no interest in what you like to talk about doesn't mean there's an intelligence issue going on.

Work on your issues yourself first because you clearly don't know how to talk to women thinking we think the same.

emotional issues and other things

Awe, that's sad. Sometimes we can emanate our personal issues without even knowing it. That might make some folk standoffish, nation.

all i'm going to say is that it's not always the man's fault. women play a major part of the problem as men do. you guys are giving women too much credit when a lot of them are running around screwed up not realizing it. then they wonder why they are unhappy and miserable as hell. you're pretty much telling me that guys should step to women correct, prove themselves and the whole nine but what about these women that are pretty much screwing themselves over with this me, me, me mentality thinking that nothing's wrong with them and how they carry themselves? i see it everyday. women carrying themselves around like sex objects unknowingly or knowingly or whatever it may be then wondering why they get treated a certain way. i see a lot of women that really don't have the right to be looking down on anybody else period yet they do. no need to make excuses for the women outthere that need to work on themselves and their minds before they try to screw around with a man's mind. hell and to think that these are the future mothers of the kids. some of these women have no business even making babies.

i think this is normal. men and women have different ways of socializing. Its important to have some awareness and consideration of what the other person wants to talk about. For example, I can go back-and-forth with my guy friends on the same issue for hours, increasing the complexity or intensity of the discussion of ONE point , and this is interesting to us. Women don't seem to work this way, they like to bounce from topic to topic.

then you have another issue, if she's not interested in you, then she's liable to stonewall you so you get the picture. not much you can do about that.
