There's no law that says you have to like girls. There are a heck of a lot of straight guys out walking the planet who don't. Give it time--and work on getting to know some girls as people, not just as objects of attraction. If that doesn't help the situation, it might be time to look at the relationships with, and attitudes toward, the women in your family of origin, the ones who have been the models (mothers, sisters, etc.) for how you feel about the other women out there.
That's really good advice; thanks a lot. I still don't get it, though, because I'm really close to both my mother and my two sisters (both of whom are older than me), and I also have a number of female friends, including a couple really close ones.

I do think you're right, though, that I just haven't happened to meet someone who invokes those feelings yet.
cannabis=freedom Reviewed by cannabis=freedom on . Apathetic towards the idea of a relationship Now, I know what everyone's going to say... "You're young. It's normal. Things will change." The simple fact is, I've never truly liked a girl in my entire life; not beyond a physical attraction at any rate. Not to sound immodest, but I'm generally considered good-looking, likable and charming, and a number of girls have fancied me over the years, but I've never had or desired to have anything to do with them beyond just fooling around. I feel bad, because I do like and respect girls, Rating: 5
