#1 [font=Helvetica, "Nimbus Sans L", Arial, "Liberation Sans", sans-serif]Maybe you are struggling to build friendships with those around or you are new in town and want to make friends. Building strong friendships can be a challenge, especially if you are introverted or shy. Having good friends can improve your overall outlook on life and make your day to day life much more fulfilling. To make friends, you can start by projecting a confident and friendly demeanor around others. You may then attempt to build friendships with others by seeking out opportunities to socialize and then maintaining your friendships so they are meaningful and long-lasting.
