Why do some people have many friends, while others have practically none? Because not all relationships develop into friendships, but only those based on sincerity, mutual respect, the ability to help in difficult times. To have many friends, you need to be able to find a common language with people.
Instructions
Step 1
Be sincere. Falsity and pretense will not win people over to you. Don't try to sound better to your friends than you really are. With closer communication, everything that you are trying to hide and embellish will come out. Sincerity and naturalness attracts people.
Step 2
Refer new friends by name more often. Scientists have proven that the sounds of their own name evoke positive emotions in a person at a subconscious level.
Step 3
Be polite. Don't make fun of your friend, especially in public. Good humor can help you quickly find a common language with a person, while caustic jokes and remarks can ruin even the warmest friendships.
Step 4
Don't be jealous of your friends. Envy is a black feeling that eats away at a person from the inside. Very often, envy arises regardless of your will. Get rid of this feeling. It makes no sense to envy someone, especially friends. Every person has ups and downs. If you think about it, there are many wonderful and joyful moments in your life that you can envy.
Step 5
Show a sincere interest in a friend's life, take an interest in his problems, the health of his loved ones. So the person will know that he is dear and interesting to you.
Step 6
Learn to listen. When a person has problems, he needs to talk to a close friend. You need to listen without interrupting or inserting your comments. When a person has spoken, you can support him with warm words or thoughtful advice.
Step 7
A friend is known in trouble, therefore, in a difficult life situation, you should substitute a friendly shoulder for a person dear to you. Do not refuse help if you can provide it.
Step 8
Show your new friend that you value your friendship with them. It will be easy to find common ground if a potential friend sees what is important to you.
Step 9
Look for common interests with friends, spend more time in their company. Then the friendship will be strong, and the problem of communication will disappear by itself.
