How do "normal" people make new friends/ new relationships!? I am a female and have such a hard time meeting other females. Meeting men is not as hard because I'm kind of attractive I think and they will talk to me regardless of any weird things that come out of my mouth - is that rude to say? Sorry. But with women, they are not attracted to me, obviously, and they do not care for my quirky personality. I've been told I'm too happy, too smiley, too proper/square, too quiet, too confrontational, and that I just say things that are awkward, or say normal things but in an awkward way. I really don't know how to form new deep relationships because I can't even create a single deep meaningful conversation with a new person!!
Does anyone else have this problem?? If not, how do you make new friendships!?

That way of communicating is much more acceptable in men than women. All my life, I found myself much more comfortable in groups of men than in groups of women because of it. Other women (typical women, of course) are much more circumspect about behaving "properly" and watching what comes out of their mouths. A lot of them are offended or even intimidated by women who don't. It's not just ADHD women who get snubbed, but any women who are outspoken. Heck, even women who are confident have problems with this. I've ended up with a lot of male friends and ballsy women friends, and that's fine.

I typically feel more at ease speaking with men.

Funny thing is I am a man who struggles to make friends with other men but not women. Hope you make progress
