It's important to know how to be a real and true friend. To me, a good friend is understanding, kind, asks questions and are loyal. I hope that people look at me and think that I have all of those traits. I think that to make someone feel special and think that you care, it's vital to smile while they're talking or when you see them. Even if you're not their friend, it gives off the impression that you're nice and makes them feel special. In this blog, I'll be addressing ways to be a real and true friend.
I've met many people who just aren't very nice. Being kind is a key principle to being a good friend and even just being a nice person. I think that it's good to be kind and loving to others. Someone's always watching you and how you react to things. So, it's good to be self-aware of how you treat others. Even if you think no one's around. One super important thing in relationships is to not be two-faced. No one likes people like that. Don't be one way around a lot of people and different when your alone with someone or vice versa. Just be the same person always.
Another thing is to apologize. It's a big pet peeve of mine when people don't apologize (I'll admitt I can be a hypocrite in this area). Especially when someone bumps into you and doesn't even blink an eye. It's good to say sorry and help them if anything fell. A lot of the things I've mentioned are common courtesy but, a lot of people don't do it anyway. A good book to read on this subject is, how to win friends and influence people. This is a good book that talks about-well, how to win friends and influence people. :D I think that friendship is really special but, like a garden, you have to tend to it. And, every day (or whenever it needs it) you need to water it and pull out any weeds. Even if it just means checking up on them and asking how they are. Little things like that can make someone's day.
Thank you so much for reading this. I hope it helped you know how to be a real and true friend to people! Xoxo, Mercy ❤︎
