It is no stroll in the park to make new friends as adults,
especially the introverts. But the fact still stands that as human beings, we all
need someone. We cannot live life in solitude perpetually. Life without friends
can be very boring. We need someone to hold our hands in our darkest moments
and tell us everything will be alright, we need someone who we can always
emulate and look up to when all chips are down in our lives. Rene Descartes
stated in one of his theories. “I am because we are, since we are, therefore I
am.” This implies that our existence is dependent on the human race.
It is ok if you love being alone sometimes, but if you do
not love it, but you frequently find yourself doing that, then read along.
A lot of adults have become very strict when relating with
people. They no longer transport with the idea of becoming friends with people
of basic mindset, thus, making the situation more chronic to handle.
Do you feel you have little or nobody that you can contact
in the face of challenges?
Do you feel you frequently find yourself alone even when you
do not want to?
Do you feel if you remain indoor for weeks, people barely
notice?
If your answers to these questions are all YES, then this
article is definitely for you.

- Be AUTHENTIC.
The first step to making long-lasting
friends is by being you. Most people misquote this point a lot by believing you
have to feign perfection when meeting someone newly. First impression does not
necessarily last forever, but correct impression does. This trait makes you
stand out as most people do not love imposters. Authenticity is magnified in
the society. This is because a lot of people in this contemporary age have
caged themselves in the societal expectations box in order to scale through.
So, when people sense authenticity in people, they are mostly drawn to them
even from their subconscious as they find it unique and probably wish to absorb
the trait as well.
- BE CHEERFUL.
This is another trait that is attractive to people and can earn you the relationship you desire. Putting on a smile always can make people interested in you. Cheerfulness is being choosing happiness over situations most times. A lot of people are going through mischiefs, and do not need any more problems by being with someone who appears more depressing than they are. Rather, they need someone who can spread joy into their lives and lessen the efficacy of their struggles. So being cheerful is potent in this approach.
- CONFIDENCE.
Confidence is a general trait everyone must
exhibit in life. The absence of this can make life scary and less meaningful.
Being fearful and unsure of your self poses a higher risk of eventually
succumbing to your worst scenario. Confidence starts from the mind. It matters
a lot in our outlooks about life which motivates us into certain
responsibilities. Confidence enhances you to get what exactly you want, and
dispel all manner of doubt towards it. You need to maximize this quality in
making friends as well. It makes it easier as most people are inherently drawn
to brave people.
- KNOWLEDGE.
Another trait that germinates relationship
is by being knowledgeable. Knowledge is power. Knowing things that are mostly
void to people can draw people towards you. Most persons like to be around
impactful people. If you seem vague about many ideas, then it will be right for
you to delve into the habit of reading. Thus, knowledge has a way of making
this theory a reality.
- BE KIND AND COMPASSIONATE.
This involves being empathetic, attending
to people’s need and loving them dearly. Be a blessing to everyone you meet
with a pure intent. Treat people with respect and courtesy irrespective of
their identity in the society. This can make people admire you and even subconsciously
appreciate your company and influence in their lives.
These among many others are the factors
that can contribute to getting people attracted to you, thereby becoming
friends consequently.
