I think them to be a kind of threat and try to keep distance and sometimes even treat them indifferently like mechanical objects or something. Basically, i think of them to be creating some problems for me in the path i am heading towards for their own issues and i find myself rebelling against all of them. Same thing doesn't happen with girls who support me in such a time. Please advice. Reply to this Question Share |

Hi
I think you feel like this because you are a go getter and all you wanna do is to protect your turf, that’s why you see them as a threat. I think the way you feel its normal and it is good, what you just need to do is to loosen-up a bit and be able to tackle this gracefully without any feeling of hostility towards any of them because it’s a way of life and it is rudely said “it is the survival of the fittest”.

Truthfully I imagine the answer lies in your own sacred history. Males in your life and family maybe? A competitive brother or friend or an overbearing father?
Perhaps you are experiencing an understanding of what women go through in the work force.
You sound like you may be an empathic, thoughtful person. It is a beautiful quality and underrated in society for men.
I think once you make some steps into achieving your goals you will feel more courageous and this issue will fade.
Good luck
