I completely understand where you're coming from. I've always been more sensitive than most guys my age. I was also a late bloomer and I'm quite scrawny. The majority of my friends in school and even now are female, I'm just more comfortable with them.
It's okay to be the way you are. I would focus more on handling your feelings than worrying about being "manly." Don't let the social standard of masculinity bring you down, some people like us just aren't that masculine and there's nothing wrong with that.
I fought trying to be masculine for years and I was never happy. As I embraced just being who I am, I found myself being more comfortable. Besides, toxic masculinity is complete shit and the less people with that mentality, the better.
