Can anyone give me any tips on how to make friends and how not to lose them?

Question

I had a group of friends but they all recently started to avoid me. We still talk to each other occasionally. I also have another group of friends that doesn't get along very well with my first group. Should I just approach my first group and make things alright again??

Answer 1

If you have to work too hard at these relationships, maybe they are not worth your time...

Answer 2

You may first have to answer the question why the first group is avoiding you. May be you are giving off bad vibes which may need to be addressed. It has been said there are two types of people lifers and seasonal. Some people enter your life for just a brief moment and when the moment is gone so are they. Nothing necessarily bad about that you just have to accept the relationship has run it course. Other come into your life for the entire course of your life that is their purpose. You can not substitute one for the other.

Answer 3

You shouldn't be so much emotionally dependent on friendship.

You probably have a lot of good and hard duties in your life, and you might think more about your own duties, and so attend to such duties in the best possible way for you. If you need some help in a duty of yours, you might ask someone that you deem is capable of helping you, and if he or she then helps you, then you may say that you have found a friend.

A friend that you eventually may lose; but then you may find a new friend, someone that may need some help from you, or someone you might give some required friendship to. Good old granny used to say something like this: Go together with those who you deem are better than yourself and so always brightly insistently offer to pay the necessary expenses that may be connected with their company. Bu you may even choose to go with those that you may deem not better than you, and so offer some help to them that they may be proud of.

Someone, a lone wolf?, declares that loneliness is beautiful; somebody else declares that companional friendship is even more beautiful; a third possibility would be to warmly be available to those who sincerely want your friendship, and so to shake the dust off your sandals and go your own way wherever you feel that your friendship is not welcomed or is misused.

"Friendly pride and good style" might become your own motto, and so you might wisely even try to avoid becoming a sort of emotional hostage or robot unto your friends, and so you might wisely fiercely try to avoid seeking to turn those friends of yours into your own emotional hostages or emotional robots. Good luck!

Answer 4

There is no need to have group of friends. Have people you associate with but few in your inner circle because if you regard every person your friend you will expect them to give time to you and you to them and that may not happen then you will be hurt

Answer 5

Friends come and go but only true friends stay. Friends accept you the way you are and if they don't then they are not good enough for you. It is best to have one good and true friend than to have many groups of friends.

Making friends is not difficult at all. Whats difficult is finding your best true friend. You never lose true friends. You only lose those who were never your friend.
