Friends and companions are necessary regardless of where we are and what we have. Meeting new friends and allowing them to understand more about you is what we should do. Every person is unique in his/her own way of meeting new friends and keeping them forever.
For some people, like me, new people are like not so good thing as they enjoy being with themselves. However, the way we think might be wrong as getting a new close friend is a good thing. Moreover, we never know who is going to be our best friend until we give a chance. Few things I do when I make a new friend that can help you too.
Be yourself
Some people pretend to be a great person or speak in a sophisticated language to attract new people. This may not be a great idea as the person who is listening may feel strange about this rather than a comfortable feeling. I have a friend called Peter. And he is a nice person. However, when he meets new people, he completely changes the way he speaks and the way he behaves. This makes them totally uncomfortable and his relations never lasted.
I am sorry for him but the way he considered to meet new people is not the correct way as he tried to pretend himself as some other people who have more money and can speak attractively. Therefore, a person is going to like you and stay with you forever only if you present yourself to him/her.
Just start talking
Some people are very good at making new friends and some are little bit opposite at that, like me. I used to feel shy and unnecessary to make new friends. Nevertheless, I realized I should be making new authoritative friends in order to be happy in hard times. So, if you are a person like me, then don’t hesitate to go and speak to new people. Who knows he will be your best friend later.
You will have opportunities to get new friends in parties, meetings, family gathering and many more. If you want to get a new friend, you can get anywhere you want, but the key is you may have to start a conversation.
Listen to them
I have a friend, and she would never listen to me. If she called me, she would not give some time to me to talk. How bad was that. But the person is not bad, the way she chose is incorrect. One fine day, I told this in a detailed manner with diplomacy.
If you keep on talking about your life, your job, and your family, to some extent it may be good but in long run, it will collapse. Because she/he might be suffering from other problems which she wants to share, or she may be busy at the moment. There are numerous possibilities in which they cannot participate in the conversation. So, stop saying so much about your life and start listening what they’re saying. This will surely build the relationship.
Make a feeling that you are ready to help
If you want the friendship for a really long time, you should create a feeling that you will help her/him in tough situations and, mainly, you will be there for them in that situation. If a person reminds you when he is in a tough situation, then you are in the correct path, your friendship last forever.

It's rare to read good advice in here, at least what I haven't already seen here a million times before, but this... is good.
Everyday is an opportunity to make new friends Isn't it?
Friends are important for a longer life, there's a Stanford study on life duration and relationships quality.
I know people who are so well spoken around friends, but when they are around strangers they become different.
its strange to watch, but some cases it comes down to social anxiety.
I struggled with social anxiety a lot but its not a constant it comes and goes.
What helps me now is just not caring lol

It is definitely important to build a good friendship in steemit as with unity, there is power. We can support one another for great growth in steemit! Thanks for the post!
For some reason I feel like this is harder to do when you have grown up. Feels like you also easily drift apart from friends you had when you where younger, and I don't really know why.
I will this year really try to make some new friends and make a bigger effort to hang out with the older friends I still have.
