What's a good way to make friends?

A good way to make friends is just to listen to his/her problems and get their trust.  It takes approximately ninety days for that person to get to know you as a person thus the friendship.  With that in mind a good way to make friends is being there for that person and if you love or care for the person is giving him/her advice that the person doesn't want to hear.  I hope this helps you out.

I'm trying to figure that out myself...I've tried doing the online thing..but that hasn't worked out to well. Mostly I found just meeting people through friends has worked the best. Going to party with friends and in groups I find a little easier to deal with than one on one, more people to bounce off conversation with.\n\nVolunteer work is a good place to and if you're religious Church.

Other than asking here the easiest way to make friends in yahoo is to go to a chat room.  Strike up a conversation and you may make a new friend.

I know that this sounds SO cliche, but just be yourself. If you wanna make friends & be accepted, let it be for who you really are & not what you aren't... It's much easier that way & plus, a big self-esteem & ego booster in the end. AKA, the ppl you meet & who like you, will like you for YOU.\n\nBe friendly, open & honest. Don't be afraid to smile someone's way or to be the first one to come up & say, "Hi, my name is _____. How are you?" \n\nBeing able to relate to situations make great conversation starters as well. Such as if you're in a long line at admissions. Don't be afraid to smile someone's way & just say out of the blue like, "I think graduation will come before this line will move."\n\nAlso, asking someone something about themselves or commenting positively about something they're wearing, etc, is always a big plus. Naturally, we all like talking about ourselves & ppl like it even more when someone else initiates the self-gab-monologue, LOL. If you're ever stumped on how to get the ball rolling on this one, just pick out something interesting about the person, for example, if someone has a t-shirt that says they've been to Maui, don't be afraid to say, "Oh cool, so have you been to Maui?" If they have, ask them what it was like. Don't be self conscience if you've never been there. Happily admit that you've never been there, but say you have always wanted to go. Or if you have been there, share your experiences. And if the Maui thing backfires & they've never been there, but you have, again, give 'em some tips of places that are a must-see if they ever go, or what you liked most, etc.\n\nAlso, a good tip to making friends easily & making lasting relationships w/friends is again, finding a way to relate, or something to connect on. Try to strike up conversations w/ppl that belong to groups/club/activities that you are interested in. Also, if you aren't in any of those activities, JOIN. For example, you have a love for music & theater & your campus has a performing arts club, SIGN UP.\n\nGood luck to you in college. Sometimes the experiences, friends & relationships that happen there teach us more than what we learned in class ;)

Depending on our situation meeting people to become friends with can be very easy or extremely difficult. Clubs, local organizations activities, schools, church, libraries, book stores, gyms, jogging, parks, beach, lakes, malls, etc. can all be places to meet new people. Once you’ve met them talking and keeping the person interested is probably the most important thing.\n\nTo keep the other person interested in a conversation don't talk about yourself too much. Ask simple friendly questions to get to know the person better, talk about any interests you have, classes, guys/girls, parents, etc. Become genuinely interested in the other person.\n\nThere are lots of ways to start a conversation; keeping yourself informed on current events, staying involved in activities and keeping a mental list of good topics of discussion are excellent ways to break the ice.\n\nFor other topics to talk about you can search the internet about things that you, or the people you will be talking with, are interested in. If you like games, perhaps search for the latest information about the x-box 360 games, pc games, ps3, revolution, etc. If you like tv-shows, movies, books, pets, etc. A few jokes from time to time can also be a great ice breaker.\n\nAlso remember that body language is very important! Most people don’t even realize it but most times you’ll already have made a lot of decisions about the person by their body language and tone, before you’re more than a minute into a conversation. You want to be cool, calm, and collected; act like the person is an old friend, even if you’ve never talked to them before, and make sure to look them in the eye. Instead of focusing on how uncomfortable you feel, prepare yourself by thinking of the issues that interest you most and what you would like to discuss about a particular subject. A little preparation can go a long way.\n\nPay Attention to what the other person says! This one is Extremely useful as you can bring it up at a later time and the other person will be surprised and pleased that you remembered.\n\nContinue to speak to everyone you know regularly. If you are walking and see someone you haven’t talked to in a while, stop for a moment and talk to them. It does not have to be a long conversation, just say hello, see how they are doing and if anything is wrong. You would be surprised by how little effort is required to win the friendship of others when you require nothing of them.\n\nBe nice and generally try to end the conversation on a good note. You don't have to make sure the other person has a great time Every Single conversation, but you don't want to think of all the petty arguements they've had with you.\n\nArguements... Don't. There are Very Few 'good' arguements. "The only way to get the berst of an arguement is to avoid it."\nIf you're wrong, admit it.\n\nDO NOT critize the person, or a friend, when talking to the person. If you want to point out something they did wrong, try to point out something similar you did wrong.\n\nSmile! Not a forced smile, the person you're talking to will be able to tell the difference. And you don't have to be an overly happy hyper-active person. Just smile naturally and, if you can, be somewhat happy. Remembering good times with your friends/family can help.\n\nLet the other person do a lot of the talking and be a good listener. (Somewhat stated in my first advice, ask questions, talk about interests the other person has. Answer questions sincerly.)\n\nHonestly make the person you're talking to feel important. You don't want to fake this one or do it too often, but if you honestly think they did something well, give them that praise.\n\nIf you want more advice, there are a couple good books that Will actually help. How to Win Friends and Influence People, is probably one of the best ones. It's an old book, but trust me, it's just as useful today as it was when it was written.\n

To make a friend, you first must be one. Make conversation with someone you like but don't know very well. Everyone has to start somewhere. Good luck sweetie!

the best way to make a friend is to know what they like. another thing I've come to learn that if you are mean and extremely opinionated, it could get on the other persons nerves... so to keep a friend there's basically 1 rule, treat them how you would want to be treated. to make the friend id simple. first it helps if you make the first move. start with some light conversation, you know intrests and such and then mabey exchange phone numbers and gradually star hanging out an dhtne let it go from there
