How to be a friend

My rule is be yourself.

I am really good at making friends but i am rubbish at keeping them. My best friend said the other day her mum always said "smile and be happy, people do not want to be around a miserable person. They want to be around happy smiley people who make them feel good about themselves"

It has taken me since my last best friend which was nearly 10 years ago to find my best friend at the moment. I just act like me. I have stopped tryignt o impress people. I am naturally shy, not really into social situations but i am willing to open my mind to things i do not like. My mate has took me out a few times and although i have not danced on the dancefloor, i have had a fab time. I am in my friend's company and she is a fab friend. She also introduced me to her mate from her home town. We are like twins we are so alike. My mate said to me before i met her mate "you will love her, she is like you and you guys will hit it off straight away" How right was she. So through my friend i have met and made a new friend too and i could not be happier.

Just be yourself, if people do not like the way you are then they are certainly not worth it. People will like you for who you are not a false person

Hope this helps
