Having great friends is very important in life whether you want to admit it or not.
The problem people often have is that they don't know how to get more friends.
In this article I'm going to give you some tips that will help you have more friends and get them to like you more.
The most important skill of a good friend is that they are a good listener.
By listening well they convey that they are interested in what you are saying and care about it.
I think we all know how frustrating and annoying it is to talk to someone who seems like they are not caring about what you are saying.
If you listen well but never show it, it might make your friends think that you aren't actually listening to them.
To combat this you have to do what is called active listening.
This means that you are actively showing that you are listening to the person.
One thing to show it is to nod your head and looking into their eyes when they are talking.
Looking in their eyes is a very powerful way of showing that you are interested.
In fact it is probably the most important thing to do.
One great thing to do is to ask questions at the proper times.
You can make your questions even better by starting them by repeating the last few words that the other person said.
If you do this they will really think that you are listening to them well and will like you a lot more.
This tip is very powerful when you correctly.
