Why I Don't Trust A Woman With No Girlfriends

Everything is a competition and about her. She has many male friends but is prickly among women.

Why I Don't Trust A Woman With No Girlfriends

Girlfriends share a special kind of relationship. If you have one, you’ll know what I’m talking about.

When we’re with our girls, all our deepest fears, dreams and mistakes are heard. We’re validated.

They listen to us, call us out on bad behaviour and embrace who and what we are. Their words leave us comforted and, at times, completely transformed.

That bond between women is uplifting and almost spiritual.

I subscribe wholeheartedly to the concept of girls supporting one another. But not all women think alike.

I met a woman who, on social media, encourages women to support other women at work. She describes herself as someone who champions women’s causes. I followed her posts up until the point I met her.

I was disappointed when we met in person. She made no effort to befriend other women at a gathering, as some observed, and our interaction (despite my keenness) was lacklustre.

It got me thinking: Which women would really be the best ambassadors of girl power?

I figured it would be the ones with female friends, because it takes one to understand one. These are the only women I would want to be friends with.

It goes back to my distrust of women without girlfriends.
