How To Be a Good Friend









    Everyone needs a good friend. I still remember my best friend form elementary school. Her name was Mary and she lived across the street from me. We did almost everything together.

    Being a good friend is just as important as having good friends in your life. Here are some tips to help you become a better friend.


    • Always be aware of your friend's feelings and ask what's going on every day. Don't overdo it because you will seem weird.
    • Invite her to social gatherings so she can meet new people.
    • Pray for your friend
    • Have fun! You don't always have to be so serious! Friends like fun.
    • Be yourself.
    • Compliment her! That makes her feel good about herself, not to mention happy with you.
    • Always acknowledge compliments given to you. If you just say, "Ya, I know," then your friend might get hurt or angry with you.
    • Never be mean to your friends or play with other people while ignoring your other friends.
    • Comfort her if she cries and try to help her with the problem.
    • Don't talk behind your friend's back!
