And i'm here for you :) no seriously i can be your friend if you want & here are some ways to make more friends..Hope it helps :)


**Priming yourself for friendship
You may want friendship, but what kind of friend would you make? Factors to consider include:

• Attitudes to others - we can drive potential friends away by demanding they share our attitudes, beliefs or behaviors. If you accept that other people have a right to be different from you, then you open yourself up to the possibility of experiencing relationships that bring a fresh perspective to your life.

• Treatment of other people - think about how you like to be treated, and then offer the same to the people in your life.

• Do not expect instant results - good friends are not made overnight. Sharing your deepest secrets in one night will not necessarily create a close friendship. It may even drive the other person away. Take it slowly. Divulge 'safe' secrets first, and allow the relationship to hold some weight before you share the meatier issues in your life.

• Curb the urge to criticize - constantly griping about the failures and weaknesses of other people can make your listener feel wary of you. How do they know you are not complaining about their flaws to other friends?

• Do not gossip - potential friends are not going to trust you if you constantly gossip to them about the trials and tribulations of other people in your life.

• Do not compromise yourself - each one of us has standards of morality and behavior. Don't allow yourself to compromise yourself for the sake of 'fitting in' with a group.


**Places to meet friends
Suggestions include:
• Many people make friends at work. Open yourself up to the possibilities by participating in social occasions, such as Friday night drinks or lunches to celebrate employee birthdays.
• Follow your interests. For example, if you like walking, join a neighbourhood walking group.
• If you don't work and have no particular hobbies, consider joining a volunteer group with a charity that interests you.
• Use your existing network of family and friends to meet new people.
• Don't turn down party invitations.

When making friends is difficult
Some people find it difficult to make friends. Perhaps they are shy, or feel they lack the social skills to start a conversation. Suggestions include:
• Join groups that share your common interests. Talking about one of your passions, such as gardening or writing short stories, for example, can help give you confidence to talk about other things with potential new friends.
• Watch and learn from gregarious people who make friends easily.
• Practice looking people in the eye when you talk to them.
• Listen to what others are saying, rather than focusing on your own self-consciousness.
• Smile.
• Look for anyone else in the room that seems socially awkward, and approach them for conversation.
• When you talk to someone new, ask him or her questions about themselves or what they like to do; it is a good way to get started.
• Social skills can be learned, so seek professional help if you feel you need it.


**Tips:
*Mainly, just be yourself. If people don't like you when you're yourself, maybe you shouldn't be around them.
If you're around a new place, try to find people who are not attached to a group and strike up a conversation about anything -- the weather, the environment you're in, clothes, whatever.
*Always try to have fun and enjoy yourself, which will radiate externally!
*Call your friends at least once a week to check on them and see how they're doing. They'll be happy you care. Tell them that you appreciate them.
*Remember important things about them such as things they like and their birthdays.
*If you two ever get in an argument, be the first to apologize. Even if you're not sorry, at least apologize for getting into a fight with them. Then, without interrupting them, allow them to tell you why they got mad at you, and what they think you should do about it.
*Remember, never leave old friends because you like someone else more. This is a mistake.
*Accept everyone for who they are and never bring anyone down or try to change someone (especially if they've done nothing to hurt or offend you). This communicates insecurity.
*Seek out "true" friends. A false friend will destroy rather than build up a relationship.
*Be a "true" friend, faithful through thick and thin, over time and distance, in fair weather and foul. Always love, always hope, always persevere.
*Listen to others. It's better to be quiet than to say too much.
*Never, ever blurt out a friend's secret! Not only would you lose your friend's trust, but the trust of everyone around you. Be as loyal as a puppy to your friends, they'll respect you for it.
*Learn to recognize when a person's not bothered about you or your feelings. If he/she is constantly darting their eyes and always interrupting you, or even - shocker! - walking away from you when you're in mid-sentence, well they're generally telltale ways that prove they just don't care.
*Always trust your gut feelings about people. If you feel someone (as nice as they may seem) is not the right person to make friends with, then move along.
*Don't be afraid of failing in your quest for friends. The only way this plan will work is if you put yourself out there.



**Warnings:
*Don't try to join a group which requires initiation, because often they will be taking advantage of you!
*Don't be afraid to stand up for what is right. If you know one of your friends is doing something that you know is wrong, confront them. If you're a friend, you won't let them do the wrong thing.
