The most important thing you can bring to your relationships and friendships is trust. The other person needs to trust what you say and do; trusting that you are 100% honest with them is essential.


By the same token, your best buddies should (hopefully) be honest and trustworthy with you.


Making new friends can be challenging at times. Some friendships happen easily and effortlessly, and others you might have to be proactive (“acting in anticipation of future problems, needs, or changes,” https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/proactive ) and work at.


Sometimes, we stop hanging around with people we did before puberty because our interests change.


Try making new friends everywhere. They are people you can take advantage of, and they can get help or assistance from you, too.


When making new friends, do things with them that require interaction, rather than just watching TV together. At clubs at school or in your classes, you can make new friends. Sometimes someone else will not say "Hi" to you because they are timid or maybe something is on their mind. Don't hesitate to try to make many new friends. Some people hang around one or two friends at a time; others spend time with many friends. If you are introverted, meaning you tend to do things by yourself, you might hang around just one or two friends.


Extroverted people, of whom there are fewer, tend to be more outgoing, doing things like running for student body office or being the president of a club at school. Neither extroversion nor introversion is wrong.
