    Why do my friends treat me differently around guys?
    So, according to my friend I am pretty loveable, so I do not understand why certain friends of mine always make me feel awkward when they are with guys around. Like, they treat me as if I am their little pet, or like I am 4 years old. Acting like they are closer to me than they are or something. I'm sick of being treated as if I am some awkward turtle in the room. Why are my friends doing this to me around guys? I don't understand it. I'm just a nice girl trying to figure out why I am being treated as though something were wrong?

    You are most likely prettier and smarter than your friends and they don't want to compete with you so they eliminate you as a threat by demeaning you.
    The guy worthy of you will see through this.

    Because you are allowing them to, either find friends that will give you the respect you deserve, or have a real conversation with them and demand to be treated equally.

    You need a better class of friends, these are more like acquaintances, or hangout buddies.

    True friends don't change when they are around different groups, or people.
