What’s something you didn’t believe and found out later it was true?

One thing that I was told by a guy that liked me years ago was that all my “guy friends” weren’t really interested in me as a person or in being friends so much as keeping me around as a backup or if I broke up with my bf. This greatly offended me and I defended my numerous friends from middle school through adulthood. Slowly over the years I’ve found this is absolutely 💯 true. Every one of my guy friends I thought I had developed a close friendship with either admitted to wanting to be together with me or when it became clear we would not get together - dropped me. I feel stupid for thinking I was worth getting to know as a person and that I invested time in any of these friendships. Now your turn!
