Why Make Friends

    What are friends for? Can we live without them? Many People count on their friends for happiness and satisfaction. When problems beset lives, people seek the company and counsel of their friends. By doing so, they find security and peace of mind. This is one reason why people want to make as many friends as possible. They simply want to be happy.

    But what happens if you don’t find it easy to make friends? More likely you will be alone most of the time. And if you always keep to yourself even if it is not what you really like, you will be one of the unhappy people in this world.

    If you are having a hard time making friends, may I suggest that you read the following? Who knows, they may just be the things that you need!

1. Choose someone to make friends with. If you think you can trust a person, approach him or her at once.
2. Say “Hello,” in a very friendly manner. It is very important that he or she finds you friendly because you are actually making a first impression on the person. Remember, first impression lasts.
3. Be true and honest. Make sure that your motives in making friends with the person are good. Don’t make friends with him or her if you only want to prove something wrong that you have previously heard.
4. After you have made friends, do good things for him or her.
5. Don’t leave your friend especially when he or she needs your company.

    Do you want to have many friends? Then be one!
