Young people like to form groups. If you are not up to their standard, you will not be accepted into their group. And if you are an inner- going person and you are very shy, you may not dare to talk to others. Then what should you do
You should take the first step. Don’t wait until others come to talk to you. You should go to them and say "Hello" first. Then you will start a conversation. If you share some interests, you will become very close friends.
You should also keep an eye of personal interest of others. Being interested in others will show that you care about them. A boy named David, for example, is very successful in making friends. He says, "I have a real love for people and I take an active interest in others." He adds, "One of the biggest things is to know that person’s name. Others are impressed that you care enough to remember their names. Because of this they may share some experience or problem with you. And the friendship starts to build." True, taking an interest in others is the key to starting friendship.
When you want to make friends with someone, you should not pretend to be someone else. If you pretend to be better than you really are, you will lose him or her when they find out.
Be ______ when you want to make friends with someone.
