How to Be a Good Friend

A good friend, who wouldn’t want one? Ever felt like yours just not good enough but don’t know where to improve?__ 1.___ I used to annoy a lot of my friends before, just for the sake of having fun and from that, I’ve learned how to be a good friend, and stay as a good friend.

Listen.

No one likes being interrupted when they’re talking. So, when someone talks, keep yourself quiet and listen to them, especially if they’re feeling down, you need to be the shoulder for them to cry on. If you have any comment to make, be sure that you word it in a way where you don’t sound too negative.__ 2.__ When you just don't share the same interest or you’re not in the mood to listen to them, politely let them know and ask them to understand.

Always smile.

_3.___ The least you can do is, whenever you see your friends, smile and say hello. That way, if they had a bad day, you can make them feel better with your smile along with your ear, and maybe, you can share something funny to cheer them up.

Don’t ever lie.

Everyone would hate being lied to, especially if it’s by your own friend, so don't lie! It might seem alright to lie occasionally, but once you lose your friend’s trust, you may lose them forever. __4.____

Keep secrets.

Make sure you can keep a secret. If not, tell your friends straight away you cannot help yourself when it comes to secrets. Otherwise, when you let them tell you about their secrets and you “accidentally” share it with someone else, you’ll have your friends hating you for the rest of your life. __5.____ Secrets are not meant to be shared, so don’t even try.

A.Everyone has their bad days, and it’s unavoidable.

B.And that is something you surely do not want to happen.

C.They’ll probably call you “big mouth”.

D.A few people seem upset at you for being so direct.

E.Otherwise, they may just take it as you are trying to put them down.

F.This same thing happened to a good friend of mine.

G.Well, you’ve come to the right place.
