[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 738843, member: 1550"] Nomad, I do not know how you can be real friends with somebody and only talk about the weather. Men tend to do this and often just share sports or jobs etc. But i think many women need more. I am going to give an example and will call the lady Jane. I told Jane everything and thought she shared with me, but she didnt. She gave little.nuggets here and there. The thing that made me realize how secretive she is was when she told me she was divorcing her husband of many, many years. Honestly, the way she had presented the marriage, I thought it was Brady Bunch. It totally shocked me. I realized I didnt know anything about her at all. And if I know nothing about you, are we really friends? Of course, the state of her marriage was none of my business. But if I invest in a relationship and share part or all of my story, it feels kind of empty not to get anything back. Maybe thats just me (shrug). [/QUOTE]
