Things To Think About While Choosing A Friend

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
  1. Take the time to think about what a true friend means to you. It's not as obvious as you may think. You may need someone who's artistic and creative while someone else needs a person who loves to be active
  2. Pay close attention to your comfort level when you're with a someone. A real friend makes you feel good. Someone who doesn listens to you, makes negative comments, criticizes rather than encourages you and pressures you to do things you don't want to do will never be a friend you.
  3. .Identify your opinions. Arguments make a good friendship because they push you to think differently about things. If someone has nasty things to say about your family or other friends just because of their race, or religion background, you're better off looking for friendship somewhere else.


Forgiving

Forgiving isnt the easiest thing to do when someone has betrayed you or backstabbed you. But if you know that person needs to be forgiven you should just go and do that, say your sorry to your friends when they dont apoligize first. Hug, shake hands, or what ever you need to do to show that you truley mean it. Send emails or text if your just "not that type of person" do all you can to keep a any relationship where it needs to be. This includes: Forgiving


Let Go Of A Friendship

Introduction

A friendship can end for different reasons. Often, a friendship ends naturally through loss of contact or friends simply grow apart from each other. Occasionally, we choose to end a friendship. Follow these steps to easily end a friendship.

Steps:


  1. Know why you want to end the friendship. This will help to explain your reasons to your ex friend when she/he asks why you want to end it.
  2. Examine your reasons you choose. Friendships should not end because of an argument or because he said something that hurt your feelings. Your reasons should be based on true facts and not based on rumor or gossip you heard in the sixth grade hallway.
  3. Ask your friend to meet you. Choose a somewhere private. You don't know how she is going to react when you tell her you want to end your friendship and this makes sure you aren't embarrassing your ex-friend in public.
  4. Get to the point. Don't dance around the problem. Dragging it out will hurt your soon-to-be ex-friend even more.
  5. Be completely honest and dont lie about how you feel. Lying will get you nowhere and the truth has a funny way of coming out.
