Hello everyone! In this blog is about friendship…
I know how hard it is to find friends. I always say people have two types of friends; those who are really good friends and those that they pretend to be friends with but really aren't. You may think that it's easier than ever before to meet people, connect with them, and build relationships. But if you're not careful, you could end up in friendship limbo where you have no real friends but still feel like you want to be around others.
If you're struggling to make friends, here are some tips to help you get out of friendship limbo:
Be nice:
Being kind goes a long way with making friends. When you're trying to make friends, it's okay to admit you don't know what to do. You can ask someone else about their experiences meeting people and what they do to learn new things.
Ask questions:
People love talking about themselves. So, try asking lots of questions and listening to their answers. Don't just listen and nod along—take notes, remember details, and then return the favor when you meet someone later.
Give compliments:
Tell a friend something positive about them without being intrusive. Say something like “That outfit looks great!” or “You look great today!”
Have fun:
Keep things lighthearted. Laughing at yourself and having fun helps put others at ease.
Get involved:
Join a club or activity that interests you. Go hiking, take yoga classes, go bowling, join a book club, etc. Find activities that match your personality type. For example, if you tend to be shy, stick to smaller groups. Don't force yourself to talk to strangers unless it's absolutely necessary. Instead, focus on getting to know the group members.
Set boundaries:
Make sure you have clear expectations. Don't expect to spend all day hanging out with someone just because they asked you to hang out. And stay consistent—don't cancel plans last minute.
Respect personal space:
If you sense that someone wants to approach you, politely say no. Let people know you are busy by saying something like “I'm sorry, but I've got plans tonight. Maybe we can do something tomorrow though.”
Do favors:
Helping others makes you seem trustworthy. Offer to babysit for someone's kids,pick up a friend's homework, or run errands.
Listen well:
Pay attention to people. Look for nonverbal cues (like eye contact) to understand what they are feeling. Then, respond appropriately with eye contact and body language.
