You need to work through your issues with men and the men in your life. Make peace with it and heal from it. Do shadow work, get help. This is ruining your relationships. As the trauma can cloud your judgement about men. I don't suggest dating yet but befriending a few guys you can hang with from time to time just enjoying a friendship until you're comfortable. If you're still not comfortable with men. I would say, take a closer look at your needs and wants especially your sexuality. Find your comfort and take the time to heal. That's why I mentioned get help if you need help. Therapy will help and making new friends will help. You have to be open to it though. Besides if you want to only befriend females thats okay.
Most Helpful Opinions
Most people have more friends of their own sex. This is because it is easier to relate to people who are similar to you. Mexicans hang out with Mexicans, women hang out with women. Buddhists hang out with Buddhists and Republicans hang out with Republicans. There are exceptions of course. One of my two best friends is a lesbian and we often act as each other's wing man. She's a blast to be around but I'm not her type and she's not mine though she once told me if I ever got sex change she might consider dating me if I ended up pretty enough.
