Making friends as a kid is easy…. as an adult, not so much. Between busy work schedules, family life, and a bunch of other obligations, it’s not as easy to meet people as it is when you’re younger. Plus, when you’re a kid you can easily go up to someone and say “hey, wanna be friends?” As an adult, you’ll likely freak the other person out if you say that!
So how can we make friends as adults? “YourTango” experts shared their best advice.
- Be yourself and be persistent.
- Just be friendly.
- Find common interests.
- Seize the initiative and be proactive.
- Be sincere and accept yourself.
- Use apps to make connections.
