[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 1071398, member: 1194"] Afrodyte - Props for being so explanatory in your first post. What one poster said was a weakness, I consider a strength : you know these are your opinions, and you're looking for validation, or an understanding why you feel this way. Bravo. That's a great foundation - now, can you follow it up with analyzing your actions and reactions, and seeing how you are a part of the problem as well? ALL of us contribute to problems, people - it's simply a matter of HOW MUCH of the problem is truly caused by our behavior? Now, if you've analyzed your actions, and considered people's explanations and offerings of clarity in this thread, and you STILL believe the problem to be moistly your peers and not yours.... than you OWE it to yourself to find a group that behaves the way you want. Here's a point: Probably every guy here has had groups that he has not been able to get along with. It has to do with gaming styles, of course. Your issue compounds gender relations into it. If you don't see a workable situation with you RL group(s) by now in this thread, than I [b]strongly recommend[/b] to find a group that is either all female, or has more than 1 female in it. This tends to change the whole approach of the group, in a way I almost guarantee you would prefer. A classic 'all-guy' group is something I don't particularly relish the thought of playing with either. Unless I want to show them how much better at powergaming I am than them... ;) [/QUOTE]
