I felt like one of the boys. My friends were boys. In school I related to boys.

I was a tomboy and most of my close friends were male.

I had a lot of friends who were boys. I played ball with them, but we didn't date. They didn't ask me that much because I wasn't cute enough or because I didn't drink or party.

I have never been a girlie girl and have always been a boys' girl with an equal amount of friends who were boys and girls.

I grew up in a very masculine environment. So I was around a lot of men, my brothers and their friends. There was just a lot of guys around.

I was always friends with a lot of guys, maybe because their girlfriends were girly-girls, and they felt safe with me.

In high school, during marathon phone conversations, cheap pizza dinners and long suburban car rides, I began to fall for boys because of who they actually were, or at least who I thought they might become.

I came from a big family - two brothers and two sisters. So, there were always a ton of boys around and a ton of girls around. So, I grew up comfortable with both sexes.

You know, I grew up with brothers so I'm used to being the only girl.

While I was growing up, all the boys used to be my buddies. I never got that special kind of attention from them, and I was the tomboy around. Although I've become an actress today, I still have those traits.
