I like to believe making friends is easy. (Probably because I have a lot of them) But if you have no friends.
Welcome to your life saver.
I like to believe that if you have one good friend then they’ll introduce you to their friends. So how do you make that one good friend?
Step 1
Impression.
1. Always smile with teeth or grin and tilt your head to the right. Not all the way to the right you ain’t pennywise. (I have not seen the movie)
A smile makes you more approachable.
2. Always dress trendy or in things that fit you.
(Like I can’t wear mom jeans because
1. I’m skinny as heckles and they’ll probably fall right off. (to give you an idea of how skinny I am. Someone once said that I’m so skinny that even skinny jeans aren’t tight enough on me. Bro when they said that to me I dieddd.)
2. I won’t feel confident in them. )
Or better yet
BE YOURSELF.
Wear whatever you wanna wear. If you are confident in it. You go girl or whomever. It’s 2019 I shouldn’t assume genders. My b.
3. Don’t wear revealing clothing. You might give off the impression that you’re a . . . *cough*
4. Don’t cake on your makeup either. It’s not a good look and it’s not good for your skin either so just don’t do it. But you can wear natural looking makeup
Anyway dress cute and nice.
Down below are some of the outfits I like to wear.
Step 2
Introduction.
An introduction is a start to a new friendship.
Most people aren’t going to go up to you and say hi first. Unless you’re me or they are outgoing.
First things first.
Take a breath,
Put on a smile,
go up to the person,
And say hi.
Example: “Hi my name is Tyrant. What’s your name?”
And if they say, “Well that’s a funny name.”
Or a rude comment,
If they give their friend THAT LOOK,
Or if they look at you and walk away.
Leave. You don’t want someone who is going to judge you or treat you like that. You don’t deserve that. You’re just trying to make new friends and if they can’t see that you wanna be friends. Leave.
Step 3
Common ground.
Talk about what you have in common. Here’s a few things you can talk about.
If you met this person @ school:
What elementary school, Middle school or high school did you go to?
What teachers did they have?
What lunch do they have?
What classes do they have?
(I wouldn’t y’all about drama unless you’re about that life) (not a lot of people like drama queens)
Random place:
Ask them what school do they go to,
Complement their shoes or hair,
Ask them where they got their shoe
Or what they put in their hair
Simple stuff like that can get grab their attention and sometimes people could talk for hours.
Here’s a few things you can talk to people about.
And usually that’s how you make friends.
Step 4
Hangout
Never say play date.
NEVER.
SAY.
PLAY.
DATE.
That’s weird and kiddish. The last person who said play date. I actually should have dropped them. I knew it was a bad feeling from the start. (You’re in 8th grade why are you saying “play date” )
But get the person’s Instagram, Snapchat, Fax number, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, MySpace, Cashapp, club penguin, email, Address, PayPal, parents email, epic games account, Xbox username, build a bear, webkinz , moshi monsters, Pinterest, TikTok or tinder.
Get whatever you need to contact the person you just met.
Text them.
And hangout with them.
Then if they are nice they’ll let you in your friend group.
You’ll meet their friends and the process keeps going.
And that was my guide on making friends! I hope it works for you. And thank you for listening to my Ted Talk stay tuned for next Wednesday and I’ll teach you something totally different which I haven’t chosen yet.
Stay Friendly,
~ The Tyrant <3
