For girls, does growing up fatherless effect the way you are around boys?

Question

This is a personal thing that I don't like to admit, but I didn't grow up with my dad or with a father-figure. I heard that it effects the way girls are around boys. I am really insecure around guys and I don't know how to overcome it, but I wanted to know if you knew is it because I grew up fatherless?

p.s. please tell me the truth if you know

Answer 1

No I don't think so.. My best friend doesn't have a dad but she is way outgoing around guys.. Me I have a dad but I am kinda shy around them.. So it isn't if you have a dad or not it is if you are shy or not. Hope I helped.

Answer 2

idk

im always nervous around guys that i like

was it because ur father beat someone in the family?

or something liek that

you should always have ur caution with any guy becasue u dont know how they really are but you shouldnt feel that insecure around guys that are nice.

just say hi adn start up a casual conversation about music or sports or whatever.

or start talking about like u dont get hwat to do on the assignment in class and try to warm up to them.

they are actually more fun to talk to than girls, girls gossip too much.

Answer 3

Can a very old guy submit an opinion here?  Having researched the subject and worked for a number of years in what are called children's homes (but are really repair depots for abused children) girls who grow up without a father are at a terrible disadvantage when it comes to dealing with life.  It is not natural to know how adults relate to each other in well-functioning families.  There are many symptoms of fatherlessness.  Believing everything a guy says may be one.  Thinking that love (or puppy love) will make a girl mature and complete is another.  There are many.

Answer 4

it prolly would effect the way you are around guys but your also a girl and you will naturally know how to be so i wouldnt worry too much about it

Answer 5

Many times, girls become very sexually active and may end up pregnant at a young age. This is because they enjoy the attention they get from boys (usually older boys) and they are subconsciously searching to fill in the void of not having a father around. They've never had an older male love them, so they go searching for one to do so, and it tends to end up involving s*x.

The same goes for why fatherless boys end up "g*y." They're not actually homosexuals, but they are really just searching for a male to love them, and just like girls, it tends to end up involving s*x.
