Was it easy for you to make new friends?

Generally,I'm a person not so open-minded,but that doesn't means it's not easy for me to make new friends.I think maybe I'm the one that wait for people to approach first,if others act friendly to me,I'll be glad to be a friend of them,I'll try to know their hobbies,customs,likes or dislikes,etc.The point is,I always feel,to show a sincere heart to others,then you can get the same.If I find same hobbies ,we'll often become close friends because we have more issues.

all of the above. can befriend strangers but also have the tendency to shy away. it all depends on the impression. :)

It is somewhat hard for me to make new friends. Usually I feel a bit shy and I'm not sure what to say. Then I feel dumb which makes me feel even more self conscious and then I totally chicken out when it comes to approaching new people. I am okay if people approach me usually but not always because again, not always sure what to say. So I think I need improvement in that part of me and I have had some counseling and it did help me a lot. I am not as shy as I once used to be.

hi beaushell, it is easy for me to make new friends and approach or interact with strangers. i don't have any problem dealing with them. please allow me to humbly say this...i am happy to say that i have excellent people skill and my job and exposure helped me lot to reach this level. with every encounter i make it a point to give my best (it may be the first andf last encounter) and make it more meaningful---and hoping that...both of us created an impact in our lives. just make sure to maintain your personal spere/space...make it a friendly but professional encounter! cheers to more friendly meetings and encounters!

I still lack the social skills I think. I don't find it very easy to make friends. I can approach people no problem, its usually sustaining a conversation that gets me.

It's a little difficult for me to make new friends, because i spend most of my spare time at home; i know it's not good, but sometimes i would rather stay at home and watch TV than get out...I think i should try my best to make more friends to make my life rich and colorful.

hello beaushell, i belong to the kind of person that easily befriend other people. because I'm a jolly person for me being jolly is one of the advantages to be friendly. And it depends the situation if i am the one who approach or i am the one to be approached.

It is easy form me to befriend with strangers.. I can approach people easily (especially when asking for direction, hehe) and also people find me easy to talk with.. Just by waiting in a line for a public vehicle I made friends! but then I regret this one time cause I fell of scam because of this.. So now I am more careful when talking to strangers.. We really need to choose also which we will befriend with cause there's a lot of bad people waiting for his prey..

hmm beaushell i have to admit i am a shy person, and i don't make friends that easily i mean i don't make much friends by approaching them myself, there are many people i know who were once a stranger to me, but they had some work with me and they approached me and that is how things started and that is the way i have so many friends now, they initially were also hesitant as how to respond to me coz i didn't really talk much at the beginning but well they got to know me better as time passed by, there are many people like me who are the 'silent types', i am an example... i happen to play drums and so many times it so happened that some of my seniors who played guitar needed a drummer and some people referred me so then i went and that is how i meet new people mostly, i meet most people with some work or the other seldom casually... i don't talk much to strangers, well i would reply them if they ask something but i am conservative and only talk when necessary, i think some people really think weird about me, they think i have some kinda attitude and all but it is not the case, it is only because they haven't talked to me much to know me... that is where the problem lies, nobody can know what i am unless they talk to me.... i am quite content as to what i am except for the fact that sometimes i find it hard to express in public places or places there are a lot of people... that's it, nothing special... have a nice day beaushell! . . . would be glad to know which side you are on.

I think its easy for me to make new friends.. Because im a person who easy to get along with. The improvements i need to do is dont be so close to them so they wont hurt my feelings.I have lots of friends but i notice them,they just take my kindness for granted.Yes we do also very carefull to make them as a our friends. happy posting.

Well according to me it is somewhat difficult to make new friends as they are strangers to us , and i am a person who wait for others to approach and talk to me coz we dont now how they are by nature and thinks how will they respond etc..,, but its not good i must improve myself.

I am very shy person so I wait for the person to approach me before i speak out. Maybe i am afraid that she will just snobbed me when i will be the one who approach her first. I only have few friends because i dont trust someone easily, before i consider them to be my friend they have to gain my trust first because i was fooled many times already.

Honestly in real life i cannot make new friends much better than in virtual life. I know the people when i access the social network. So, it's seems stranger but that was the fact. I need some idea to make some new friend. In my experience, in every time i just introduce my self by my blog and i introduce my personality when i have meet some people. I usually meet the groups of social network and make some appoinment if we want to meet together in somewhere place.

Nope i've always had a hard time making friends in the real world. it's much easier to make them on myLot though. I feel like an outcast most of the time because i'm actually a very shy and reserved person which is even worst since i'm a guy and girls like tough macho men.

it's not easy for me to make new friends at all. i'm really shy and have a hard time talking to people in person. i know i need improvement on my social skills but i don't seem to get it. i don't get out enough to get it... at times it seems like i've gotten better or i'm doing better but it all depends. the more i get out the more i get better but if i stop going out i fall right back into shying away again and have to start all over.

I am the kind of person that easily approach strangers and make freinds with them. However,I find that it is impossible to have a long relationship with all new freinds.Some of my best freinds are my classmates met at middle shcool.

I am including hard to adapt to new enviroments. Usually, I just waited and waited to talk to

I am the kind of person that easily befriend other people.you must have many friend in the world ,because you lived in the human world. you can share it with your good friend when you have bad or goog things. communicationn is the good way . so i like make friends everywhere.

I think it depends on the environment if its easy or not for me to make new friends. Online it seems very easy, ofcourse i think this is true for most people. In person its easy if its in a casual situation, if its more of the business type situation i leave my emotions out of it. I do tend to get lost in activities that i do by myself such as art or listening to music.
