How To Make Friends Everywhere You Go

It’s a lot easier than you think

Our family moves around a lot for my husband’s job. We always have to start over from scratch and build a new community everywhere we go. At each location, I make a large number of friends and become very well known.

While it’s true having a big family makes me stand out, there are many factors involved in being well-liked, and I want to share them with you.

Be genuinely interested in others

Everyone has a story, and it’s so exciting to hear it. We are limited in our perspective and understanding of life. We only know what we know. Life is so much richer when we listen with interest to the stories of people around us.

Someone can seem like the dullest person in the room, but behind them is a captivating story of their life that could rival any movie.

Ask people questions and learn to appreciate the unique person that they are. When you genuinely listen to others, you will be amazed at how much you can learn.

Fear is a liar

Not everyone is an extrovert and many struggle with anxiety in meeting new people. Do you want to know a secret? The other person is just as scared as you.

While you’re thinking about all the wrong and right things to say and do, they are often thinking the same thing about themselves. For this reason, push through that fear and take the first step in offering friendship.

They will be so glad that you did.

Smile

A smile is the most overlooked key to friendship. People with friends are those who are friendly. Smile at people, and often they will smile back. You will be known as friendly, and your positive reputation will grow.

Smile often at people, and you will be known as a kind human. Kindness will earn you respect.

Be yourself

There has never been, and there never will be someone who is just like you. You are a gift to the world around you, so don’t keep that gift from them.

The people around you deserve to meet the incredible individual that you are. Don’t compare yourself to others; you are wonderfully unique; just the way you are.

Be kind or be quiet

Along with not knowing people’s full stories, we also have no right to judge them. While it’s true that there are people who seek to harm, what we are usually observing in life are the walking wounded.

Everyone comes to the table with a unique background, culture, and ability. Love them for who they are. When someone is in an unfortunate situation, there is more to the story than what appears on the surface.

This is true for everyone in all situations. Be kind or be quiet. Seek to understand rather than to be understood.

When you speak poorly of someone, it circles right back around and lands on you. When you judge, you end up being the one who is judged. Instead, use your observation to look for ways to encourage others and build them up.

Final thoughts

While it’s true that there are people who will not like you no matter what, don’t worry about them. Offer your friendship and if it’s reciprocated great, and If it’s not, that’s great too-just keep shining.

Some people will be jealous of you or, in general, have an unhappy disposition. Remember what I said above about the walking wounded? Love them anyway.

This is how you make friends everywhere you go.
