Women in large packs give me the heeby jeebiez (Just a little rant)

There are a lot of things I find scary or intimidating at first glance, some of which includes spiders, cops, people who work at Hot Topic, roller coasters and…women in large groups.

Just to clarify, I’m not scared of women, individually, but more like seeing groups or “cliques” of women who I don’t know all too well.  Yeah call me a wimp, I don’t care, but boy do they scare me!

Before I entered college, from kindergarten to high school, there were some people (or kids back then) who picked on me, taunted me, harassed me, basically tried to make my life a living hell.

The frequency of boys who bullied me was random.  They usually picked on me whenever they had the chance, sometimes they had friends with them, sometimes they didn’t.  The girl bullies, on the other hand, were consistent and would always come in packs only during lunch time, and sometimes P.E. depending how many girlfriends they had in that class.  I hated it.  I’ve always hated them more than the boy bullies because the girls always had their own little backup.  You can punch a boy and maaaybe have him punch back at you, but you can’t punch a girl without having five more punches–the other five pulling your hair–coming at you.

Females, of any age, have this sick proclivity to pull the rest of their girlfriends in to their own problems, literally.  The only time they feel indestructible and heroic is when they have their girlfriends standing right beside them as they try to tear down one single girl whose completely alone. Take their clique of girlfriends away and you have one poor and defenseless sobbing idiot.

Yesterday, for Memorial’s day, my older sister really wanted to take me to a picnic that her friends were having, so I went. It was a bit nerve racking for me because she had a lot girlfriends, and again, meeting groups of girlfriends can be intimidating for me when you are your own backup.

We were a few hours late, but as soon as we arrived, all of her girlfriends greeted her and hugged her, and when they were done, they looked at me and looked away immediately as if they pretended nothing was there…but something was there, ’twas I standing there waving, waiting for somebody, anybody to wave back but nobody did…doh!

It was such a gawd awful way to start the picnic that I already wanted to leave. But after eating my plate, alone, I decided that I wanted to go up to the girls to, you know, talk. It was really terrifying for me seeing as how dreadful they looked as a single, cohesive group never leaving each other’s side, but I worked up the courage to walk up to them and this is what happened:

“Hey, so how are you guys liking the food?” I asked in a friendly tone

They looked at each other, chuckled, and then continued to eat, as if nothing was there…again.

Unfuckingbelievable.

Bunch of ungrateful, discourteous women, who are at least eight years older than me, acting like teenage girls.

So instead of trying to make conversation with them, I talked to some of their boyfriends, who were kind enough to actually talk back, they also showed me where the yummy foods were hidden. I also took very boring pictures of the park to kill time. When there was nothing left to do, I tried to make convo again, when I saw one of the girls get up to get food by herself:

“You and your friends are very quiet,” I smiled.

There was a slight look of shock in her face, she turned to look at her clique of girlfriends, and then looked at me and said, “I-I-uh-I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m just getting food.” She continued to put food in her plate.

Yet another failed attempt to make normal conversation, except this one, actually talked…with hesitance and stutters and nonsense! Only because she was alone, and didn’t have her girlfriends standing behind her ass to give her that confidence to shun me completely.

You girls are funny.

Ugh. I don’t know anymore, it’s 2 AM and I probably not making any sense anymore lol. It just saddens me how they can judge so quickly without even talking to me. It saddens me how I had to waste 2-3 hours of my life.  It saddens me how that little incident reconfirms why I should be cautious of women and their pack.  And it saddens me how my very own sister likes to interact with them.

    Wow no offense but your sister’s friends sounds like stuck up snobs! I chill with a large group of girls all the time but then my friends are all friendly and we don’t look down on anybody!

    Gasp. I know some situations can be awkward but…not that awkward. Any background stories to that? If I were you I’d ask your sis straight up whats up. Too weird.

    No background story whatsoever!

    I’ve met her friends before, but the only thing I said was “hi” last time, and then had to leave for something.

    ah! yaaa that’s why i dont really like hanging out with girls. haha or befriending them.. okay not really. im not THAT mean. but i can be reallyyyy distant when it comes to meeting a group of girls. it takes me forever to feel that comfort with them. girls are so … ehh .. ya (i dont know the right word for it). guys are fun. haha. but this made me think about the group of girls that was part of my ex bf’s group of friends. they were the gfs of his friends.. and ommggg they sound exactly like your sister’s friends. i will smack all of them one day. lol. ohh and it made me think of middle school. i was a bully to two people specifically :( .. the other guy turned gay and the girl moved out of town.. i swear i dont think i have nothing to do with it.. cause i can actually talk to them now without the tension. lol. eek.

    AGREED!
    absolutely AGREED
    i dont have girlfriends either
    i can hang out with them one on one
    even then sometimes its killing me
    i dont understand the girlfriend feeling
    um, because honestly they’re the ones that are stabbing you in the back repeatedly with blood bursting out everywhere and you with a smile on like a zombie
    i like boys much more
    i’d rather be bullied by a boy
    girl bullying is more like taunting endlessly!

    I do have “girlfriends”, only two, but thankfully none of them are like that.

    I’m also not trying to say that all girls are evil. All’s I’m saying is the one’s that usually have something against other girls tend to feed off from their own clique.

    They’re at their worst when they know their girlfriends can back them up in any given situation. They’re each other string puppets. They have don’t have a mind of their own. If one girl despises you, the rest of her friends will despise you as well.

    Well, if they were avoiding you, I would consider that more of a favor than anything else ;)

    i’m sorry you had a dreadful time. those girls are so up themselves! i can’t believe they are near their thirties and are acting like that! i’m constantly surprised/annoyed by people who are around my age- in their 20s and acting like they are still in highschool. this is seriously wtf?

    even though they snobbed you off i guess it’s better off .. they are not worth your time tiff!

    Aww that sucks, especially because, it’s not like you were some stranger just waltzing in to their picnic. You were there because of your sister. Did she not introduce you, because sometimes that makes a difference. Just know that you’re better than them! They are sooo socially challenged.

    I don’t think there’s anything worse than hanging out with people that are a) not interested in knowing you and b) not interesting. It sounds like they were both. Ugh!

    Occasionally, I get roped into attending some social function, normally to chaperone my grandmother, and it’s amazing how disinterested some people are. They’re just interested in their own little world.

    Self-interest is so incredibly unattractive, and so damn prevalent today. Yeurgh.

    Nice blog layout, incidentally :)

    eight years… didn’t realise that’s the age difference between you and Diane… guess it’s because I’m in the middle and she just seems to be a little bit older and you’re a little bit younger…

    hey tiff, this post was so brutally true! your openness and honesty is really refreshing. i really do relate to you in the way that girls are so stuck up and hard to open up to sometimes. *phew*, even though i feel awful for what you experienced that day, i’m glad i’m not the only one with girl-bonding problems. don’t worry, you know they’re not worth knowing anyway if they’re going to treat you like that. not all girls are cunts, i promise! lol keep your head up ok?!

    I am SO sorry you had to deal with that! That’s horrible!
    Sometimes, when girls don’t know how to talk to each other, I assume it’s out of shyness but sometimes? They’re just bitches.

    Especially now that I’m in college, I prefer talking to boys. Not for romantic reasons but unless a girl is almost like a boy — she is probably full of herself, needs to constantly be surrounded by her female clique and in a constant state of competitiveness. No thanks.

    But I do hope you’ll find girl friends who aren’t evil. If you ever meet me and my friends, I promise you we’ll talk to you! And not hesitantly… but I can’t promise that I won’t stutter. I just tend to stutter like porky pig… Or maybe a song remix.
