I’ve never had many girlfriends. But this year I am striving to change from having a majority of guy friends to spending more time with girls.
So how do you go about making more female friends?
Maybe you’re shy, or you work long or awkward hours. There are ways around every situation. Be creative. If you (like me) spend way too much time on the Internet, use it to your advantage and try an online friends finder or local forums. I follow my local city forum and have had a few Internet …

Louis Vuitton has a new range of monogrammed, camouflage bags. And yes, they are as hideous as they sound.
