friendships
It's good to have friends, as they can be very important to us.
Sometimes we have best friends who we are really close to and share our secret thoughts and feelings with. We can also enjoy the company of other friends as part of a group.
Sometimes it's easier to have just a few good friends and enjoy their company rather than trying to be good friends with everyone, or having just one best friend.
A friend is someone who...
...you enjoy being around and enjoys being around you
...shares similar interests to you and you can have fun with
...you can talk and listen to
...you trust and who feels good being with
...you know will stick up for you and doesn't say mean things
...knows if you're feeling happy or sad and can support you
You can tell good friends by the way they act, and not just by what they say!
How do I make friends?
Let people know that you want to be friends. Usually if you are friendly, others will be friendly back. |
