Make a Friend
« on: February 11, 2016, 11:30:14 am »
Is it easy for you to make a friend?  I like to be fusioncash blogger. The saying is true were if you can make just one friend where you are; well than, you are doing good.  Have a gr8 day  :present:

It's not easy for me to make a friend. Friends are not easy to make, because you need to be careful when choosing  your friends.

I think it's pretty easy to make friends - I am a people person so I really don't know what a stranger is -- I just start talking and see where it goes from there!!

I don't think it is easy to make real friends, especially when you are a adult. Most people already have their groups and tend to just stick with it. I can talk to anyone, but that does not mean we are friends.

That depends on what you mean by a friend. There's different levels of friendship. I think it's fairly easy also to make friends, but keeping them can be a challenge, as people move away and have different responsibilities in life. But it's worth it.

I kind of stand back and let others do the talking, and slow to warm up to some one. When I was working in the public I could stand behind the counter and answer any thing a person could throw at me. But put me  out where a person was in my space I clam up.  But once I accept someone then it is very easy to talk to the,. But as for friends I have very few and we are cose better then sisters.

I have some FB "friends" which is using the term loosely.  Some in fact most are people who seem real nice but I have never even met the rest are really family members.  I am retired and could use a good friend but don't have any idea how to meet and develop friends at this point.  Tried to reconnect with an old very very good friend and sadly found that she had passed so ............ I trust that God will put in my life who he wants so I just leave it as it is for now.

I used to be very shy when I was in my early twenties. I really struggled to make conversations with people and I certainly didn't have many friends. But then things changed. I started working in a customer service role and I found I had to start talking to people. The more I talked, the more confidence I got. The more confidence I got, the more I realized I actually enjoyed talking to people, and what's more, I was very good at it. These days (25 years later), I don't have a problem starting a conversation with someone I don't know. I am highly confident, and at times, quite opinionated! I hated those early working years!

I like to strike up a conversation and great people.  I have a few close friends and that is fine with me.

I have a hard time making friends and always have. I am at the point I do not care anymore. I have my daughter and fiancé and that's all that matters.

I really don't have a lot of trouble getting friends.  I'm a people person and love to meet new people.  That being said....there are two kinds of friends (for me anyway).  I have lots of 'friends' but only 3 friends I love and can always count on and have proven that they will always be there.  I have to laugh when I see on Facebook someone has maybe 1270 friends, I don't even know 1270 people!

It is fairly hard for me as I'm kind of introverted. I have came out of my shell a little and talk to some of my classmates in college.

I've never been good at making real friends.
I can make a ton of "acquaintances" or be friendly with people at work or in class, but my number of real friends is a small one. I feel like my life is so busy that I hardly have time to keep the friendships alive!

As I've grown older, I've discovered my best friends are those I grew up with, went to school with.  We have that common bond that draws us together.  I think making new friends depends on that natural attraction that is almost palpable.  I meet some people and can't even think of something to say, then I meet someone else and we can't stop talking to each other.
