Would you like to be the ideal friend that everyone would like? Do you want to become a sociable and popular person? While there is no way you can please everyone, these tips will help you make a good impression on most people you will know.
Steps
Step 1. Be yourself
Either way, the best way to please others is to always be yourself. If to make yourself loved you pretend to be someone you are not, people will not appreciate you, but someone else, which is the character you try to play. Never let yourself be influenced by others, be confident and be true to yourself.
Step 2. Hang out with different people, don't just hang out with your group of friends
Go out and hang out with new people, don't be shy and grab the opportunity to meet new friends. Even just getting to know one more person could be a valuable resource, if he has a group of friends he could introduce them to you.
Step 3. Don't be afraid to show off a bit
The most open and sociable people usually attract more attention and are more engaging. However, avoid yelling or you will make yourself annoyed. On the other hand, not everyone likes very outgoing girls. Find the right balance according to the situation.
Step 4. Avoid wearing clothes that can identify you in a specific category
Instead, develop your own style that reflects your identity. Learn how to match the right fashion items that make you feel pretty and comfortable.
Step 5. Socialize with even the most shy people
Shy people love to talk but are restrained at first and are afraid of starting a conversation. Try to keep talking and push even the most reserved person to open up slowly. This exercise will help you improve your communication skills. Ask questions to make the conversation more active, and if you want, even compliments. For example, you could compliment a shirt and ask which store it was purchased from.
Step 6. Be spontaneous and let yourself go
You don't have to act stupid or make trouble. Just be spontaneous. Spice up your life and that of the people around you, without overdoing it.
Step 7. Talk to everyone
As you walk through a corridor, greet everyone with a wave of your hand and a "Hello". People will be pleasantly surprised and will return the greeting. Make people remember you, maybe over time they might care more and become your friends.
Step 8. Be original in everything you do and in what you like
Listen to different kinds of music, experiment. Search Youtube for new bands or new trends. Having alternative tastes may bring you closer to new friends to share interesting talks with.
Step 9. Look for new hobbies
Start playing an instrument, draw, or join a group, play a sport, choose an activity thanks to which you can meet new people who share the same passions as you. The moment you have things in common it will be easier to start new conversations.
Step 10. Go out with all your friends often
Introduce your new friends to the regulars, they could make new bonds, avoid doing it only you are already aware of any enmities between someone. Once you have made new friends, you need to keep these friendships, so invite them to your house, go shopping together or see a movie.
Step 11. Use social networks to connect with friends
Twitter and Facebook will allow you to keep in touch even with people you can't see very often. The bond between you will keep alive.
Step 12. Don't forget your old friends
Unless there is a specific reason for you to distance yourself from someone, never neglect your longtime friends. Even if you have become a very sociable person, don't forget about anyone.
Step 13. Be nice to everyone
Behaving badly and being bossy are two attitudes that will not bring you new friends, but on the contrary only enemies. So be kind and friendly to everyone, even those you don't like too much.
Step 14. Show yourself a true friend
No one likes fake friends. The moment people realize that you are a real person, they can't help but appreciate it. Be a true friend and act like one with all the people who truly matter in your life, nurture the important bonds.
Step 15. Enjoy
Now that you have lots of friends, and lots of people who appreciate you, it's time to have some fun! Avoid the stress of having to pay attention to an increasing number of people. Sometimes you will also need some time to devote only to yourself. Friends are a pleasure, not a pressing commitment!
