i know the art of making friends,getting people to open up,and I'm genuinely interested in how people feel and trying to help anyone to unravel their feelings and gain the confidence they need to take the steps they need to,to move forward.
but i seem to be spending all my time socially-at my local,or on this site,or over coffee listening to and catching up with the trials and tribulations of everybody else's romantic lives,while i haven't gotten near an involvement in ages.
i seem to be placed in the friend category of those men i come into contact with repeatedly,lol what am i doing wrong?!!help

This is just a thought, but perhaps being a tomboy and feeling comfortable around men, they feel a friendship growing rather than an emotional connection.

Maybe try leaving a bit of mystery about yourself when meeting someone new? dunno

This is just an idea.

hmm will think on that-im not very mysterious-more the open book type,but whats the difference that makes a man feel a friendship will grow rather than an emotional connection?

I would guess that you are spending so much time concentrating on others, you are not making room for yourself.

Because you are putting your relationships on a patient/Psychiatrist level thats how people view you, and possibly think you are unapproachable.

Try just being friends... you may find the right person, then

JMHO wave

That's a good question. I can only take a guess and say that it might be that you are too open, too soon? I don't know, wish I could help more.

this is interesting,but how does a patient/psychiatrist interaction differ from a friendship interaction.
i dont just listen,i generally choose to be around people reciprocal,and not selfish.
