I like my girlfriend to be one of the guys, to be seen as a friend, instead of just "Jeff's girlfriend". I like her to call my friends just to talk, and vice-versa. I don't want to live a separate life between her and my friends. I want to be able to do everything together, whether it's playing games, eating out, getting stoned, or just hanging out. And about girls and fighting games: when a girl can beat me at Soul Calibur 2, or Virtua Fighter 4, or even classic Street Fighter 2 (and possibly Alpha), it's a HUGE turn-on. For me at least, in all my dorkiness. I dunno why. I totally understand. I like my girlfriend to be one of the guys, to be seen as a friend, instead of just “Jeff’s girlfriend”.

When I lived in Philly, all my friends and I were equal and made no such assumptions. But when I moved to Massachusetts to be with my boyfriend, I noticed all his friends lacked the capacity to accept a female as just another friend...and not "Roberto's girlfriend" or just some girl to impress or be restrained around. I think the fact that I was very much like Roberto in my interests and, compared to the girls up here, rowdy and outspoken, threw them off. Most of them still don't get it, either, but they've grown. It's amazing what the surrounding environment can do to a person. I think I'm getting off topic, but I think you get it. :P And being more slightly off topic, the only things I regret about me being female is that, one, I wish I was capable of being as strong as a male naturally, and two, why am I so good at fighting games and yet still struggle to defeat my male friends? There's something not clicking in my brain, and I dont like it! Also...it seems that practicing in training mode would help. :/ Here, here.
