More Support From The Opposite Sex

2stepscloser

Earlier today my husband (who is also on MFP) and I were talking about the support I receive from my male friends.
Ironically, aside from my core group of female friends, I get far more support from the guys than I do the ladies. I'm sure the same applies for the guys...getting more support from their female friends.

I've befriended females in the past who not once provide any support. Personally, I love the interaction with my friends (male or female) and am really motivated when they notice my hard work, give me a hard time about what I've eaten, or provide suggestions for improvement. Are you motivated by support from your friends or do you find your motivation elsewhere? Do you also notice that the opposite sex is more supportive of your efforts?
