Tips for happier friendships
1. Friends aren’t psychic and, if you’re quiet, they might think you’re busy and won’t want to bother you.
__Be proactive__. Send a text and suggest some dates to get together.
2. Stop wasting time with friendships that feel superficial. The key to thriving is
__human connection__, so focus on those relationships that foster a connected feeling.
3. Seek out people who are
__emotionally intelligent__ and who will take risks in conversation by opening up and sharing their vulnerabilities. The best friends are not always the noisiest people or the ones who put themselves forward, but they are often the richest emotionally and will provide a deeper connection that is important for a feeling of fulfilment in friendship.
