What Ways to maintain friendship?

Friendships are based on the same thing any relationship is based on. Trust, loyalty, sharing secrets, discussing your likes and dislikes and hopes and dreams. Knowing that person will be there when there are good times and bad and that you will be there for them. Knowing you can tell them anything and it won't get around to others. You love to be in their company and feel good around them.

How do you get your friend to fall in love with you?

You cannot force someone to feel something they don't. If you try to pursue things she may resent you and your friendship which will result in a fallout. On the other hand, she may have feelings for you as well. You have to make a decision to either speak with her concerning your feelings or not and leave things as they are but don't pressure her or pester her.

What does dreaming about someone a lot mean?

Generally, dreaming about someone a lot means that person has been on the dreamer's mind. Dreams reflect the dreamer's own thoughts and feelings; they do not provide information about anyone else's thoughts or feelings.

How do you know if your husband is having an affair if he keeps on talking with his woman friend and when you ask he says she is just a friend?

It is possible for a man to have a woman friend and also for a woman to have a male friend and it happens all the time. I have male friends and there are times I will discuss certain things with one of them, but, I always go to my husband if I feel we are weak in an area of our marriage. My husband also has a couple of female friends (he met them long before he met me as I did my male friends.) We have had them over for dinner and there is absolutely no problem. Marcy It appears there is a big lack of communication in your marriage and both of you need to sit down and start working on that. Whether living together or married your mate should not only be your lover, but your best friend and you should be able to go to each other and talk over any problems you may have at the time. Men having women friends and women having men friends is just fine, but, he should be coming to you for advice and not flying off to his woman friend every time he hits an obstacle. My husband has a couple of women friends and I have male friends and we ask them over for dinner. They are fun to be around, but neither of us run to them for any advice on our marriage. Every day my husband and I take an hour out of our day and talk over each other's day. If we have a problem we put our heads together to come up with the best solution to the problem we can. It's a great feeling to know your best friend is your mate and that you can trust them. Just because your husband is discussing things with this woman friend doesn't mean he's having an affair with her. If you want to keep him, then sit down and discuss with him that both of you have got to start communicating more in your marriage. Good luck Marcy why does he need a woman friend? I think something is going on. Having a woman friend as in couples as friend is different than having just a woman friend. Why would you need a male friend? Why would you go to him instead of your spouse/lover/ or mate? Something is going on. Either on both parts or just his.

How can you make someone mad?

You don't try to make someone mad if you have any commonsense.

To do so would be either immature, stupid, or cruel; do any of those terms describe you? If so, you need to consider whether you have a problem, and if so, seek to do something about it.

Annoying someone deliberately could have very unpleasant results, for you and the other person, and for others you haven't even thought of yet. In any case it would be most unlikely to achieve any positive result.

If another person's behaviour is bothering you, you can either discuss it with them and try to come to some kind of terms that help you both, or you can learn to live with it, or you can simply not see the person who annoys you.

Why your best friend has become distance to you?

well, I'll speak from personal experience.

i had a best mate, called S (shes a girl), and she also had a best m8 (this person was also a very close friend of mine), called T (shes a girl 2), but S started going out with a guy (shes a girl), so S and T have been spending less and less time.

so, me and S were best m8s for a while, until T thought that her and S needed some time together, so they told me (during a lunch break at skl) tht they were gonna go out 2 eat, instead going in2 a room and talking. i call them up to see wts happnin, n find out their in a room. so i go and see wt they're doing, and they immediately stop talking when i walk in. when i askd why, T sed tht they "needed time together" and evrything talkd was "between them".

it felt like a slap to the face.

and since then, its been happening on a regular basis, them 2 going 2 talk, and im left feeling out of place, alone, and unwanted.

i feel that T is kinda trying to take S away from me, so ive been alone for most of the days lately.

its not a great feeling, and i don't wish it upon any1 else.

i guess what im trying to say is that friends need to stay together always, and not let anyone come between them, coz then ur left feeling like dirt.

sorry for the longgg story, it just upset me a lot, so called "best friend" leaving me out of a conversation with another of my best m8s.

thanks

How do you steal your best friend back from someone you hate?

You can try talking to them and hang out with them more! Hope this helps!

How do you know if a guy is truly sorry?

Well you could ask them to apologize. Then watch their eyes. As they recant their apology to you. If they are lying you may notice little to no body movement. The pressure of lying may have this effect on them, they are confused about what motions to make so they make none. They may not be able to meet you eye to eye. Now they may also do the opposite. Use immense body movement and eye contact to show they are not lying. If it is more than they normally use you may be able to tell they are lying. Also as I was saying before eye contact is important. If they are lying they will probably do one of two things. Widen their eyes when they get to the lie to inform you they are not lying, which they are, or look away from your eye for a moment while they say it. If their eyes roll up to the left they are searching their cold memories. This means they are honest. If they flow to the upper right they are working with their imagination, often meaning a lie.

Why do boys call girls crazy?

A note before reading: the terms "boy" and "girl" in this Answer refer to a to a typical boy or a typical girl. Obviously, not every boy or girl can be pigeon-holed to these exact character traits.

There are three major issues that boys have with the way that girls act that drive them crazy (in a bad way) and are responsible for the vast majority of incident that provoke boys into telling each other that a girl is being crazy. The three major issues are:

  • Indecisiveness: Many girls find it difficult to make a decision, even on things that are incredibly simple such as "what to wear", "where to go", "what to do", etc. Boys will often just make a decision and if it turns out to not be optimal to make a second decision later. The way that a girl may agonize over a certain decision bothers boys immensely. Even worse is when a girl overcomplicates the decision or when she requests the boy to help her make the decision, but rejects his advice.
  • Emotional Overload: Boys have a very small emotional range and are supremely not interested in all of the nuances of girl friendships and relationships. They are also unclear as to how to react. Typically, when a boy discusses a problem, he wants a solution and is implictly asking for more information. When a girl discusses a problem, she wants reassurance that her perception of the situation is relatively accurate and that she did nothing wrong. When a boy responds to a girl's story by giving advice for solving the issue, this gets a strongly negative reaction from the girl, because from her perspective, he is not reassuring her. From his perspective, she was looking for help and then was angry precisely when he tried to help her.
  • Indirectness: Often girls will magically expect boys to know that they want something or need something and they see it as a personal insult when the boy does not intuit what the girl wanted. For example, the girl may say off-handedly five months before her birthday "that blouse looks really cute" and then expect the boy to purchase said blouse for her on her birthday. When she does not receive the blouse, she gets perturbed and the boy is bothered because he did not know what he did wrong. If she had just said, "that blouse looks really cute and perhaps you could get that for me", then the boy would have known what to do. However, for the girl, that would sound too direct and forceful.

What does it mean if you save your friend in a dream?

This could be wish-fulfillment. By producing a scenario in which you earn praise and respect by saving others, your mind allows you to feel the satisfaction of being a hero without actually putting yourself in danger, since you are in the safe context of sleep. On a more symbolic level, those loved ones could represent yourself, so that the dream expresses your impulse toward self-preservation.

What are questions to ask girls at a slumber party?

You don't really ask, it just comes out. Girls generally the age of 12+ like a gossip so there usually isn't any boundaries at slumber parties, for instance secrets are usually kept but random facts about each other usually get around. Girls often like to know who you like, what your most embarrassing moments are. How far you've gone with a girl/boy. But slumber parties are a time for dares/truth. and mostly fun, it doesn't matter what you do, your probably all hyped up anyway.

What should you do if your friends say your boyfriend is going to break up with you?

If you really like this guy than you should try to tell him how you feel or you should just let it happen. You'll move on and it is no fun stuck in a loveless relationship where someone wants out but just can't get up the nerve.

What are questions to ask friends or a friend to get to know them better?

Ask them where they work, go to school, go to church, etc. What they like to do for entertainment, type of movies they like, favorite actor, what kind of car they drive, if they are of legal driving age and have a car. Favorite color, personal questions that won't make them uncomfortable. If they would like to go to a movie, or play video games, go anywhere with you. After you get started and find likes and dislikes in common it will be easy to talk with them.

How do you greet an old friend?

when u greet somebody that you have not seen for many years;months;etc.., just be polite and say hello to them and start a conversation if you can. it is best if you greet them at a class or something like that. if they dont remember you, then just go on like you have never met them and most of the time they will remember you if you talk long enough. we hope this piece of advice helps you a lot. LOL

Can you given the explanation of the proverb A friend to all is a friend of none?

You can't be friends with everyone all the time. If at some point two friends disagree you will have to take the side of one. If you take sides one will see you as disloyal, if you do not take a side both will see you as unsupportive. Friendship is about the quality of relationships not the number.

Why does my best friend copies me in everything?

* Since your friend copies everything you do and follows you around everywhere have patience because you are obviously their mentor and they look up to you. Some young people do not know how to act or dress so they are copying your style. If your are upset they follow you around all the time then be nice and just let your friend know you need some head space and take a few days away from your friend.

What should you do if you've fallen in love with your friend?

I'm a senior in high school, and I'm a bit lost as to what I should do. I've known this girl for four years, since my freshman year, and we've hung out in the same group of friends since then. I've always liked her, but ever since the end of last year, that's moved onto something more. We both do all the same extra-curricular activities - both in band, and she's a drum major, and we have all the same AP courses for our electives, so I'm studying with her almost every day. The thing is, ever since last year, I can't stop thinking about her. She's part of the reason I stayed in band this year, and is also why I joined Academic Decathalon (a course where we study 10 subjects and go compete in them), and is also why I started to apply myself more; she's sort of an over-achiever, and I can't stand it when I slack off and she looks disappointed in me. My day really isn't complete anymore unless I've talked to her, and every time I do, I feel like nothing can bring me down... For a senior trip, I've asked her to come with me and one of our mutual friends to go to France for a couple of weeks, where my uncle has a spare flat, and she's going. She's driving me insane; she's the last thing I think about before I fall asleep, and she's the first thing that pops into my head when I wake up, and I think about her even when I'm doing something else, like studying or working out - I'm not exaggerating, it really is getting this crazy for me. I want to ask her out so badly, but a few things came up. I'm afraid that if she doesn't think of me that way, our friendship might get a bit awkward, especially since we share all the same friends. Another thing is, neither of us has ever gone out with anyone before, so I'm completely at a loss on what to do even if I work up the nerve to ask her out. As far as dating goes, I'm completely and utterly lost. I was planning on taking her out to Homecoming as friends and seeing how things work out from there, but after getting in a fight with my parents, I was grounded, and one of our mutual 'friends' went with her instead. I hang out with this guy a lot at school too, and we're decent friends, but not close enough that I could tell him how I felt about her. I'm not sure if he likes her as well, or if even if she thinks of either of us in that way. Sorry for putting up an essay here instead of a post, but I desperately need advice on whether or not I should tell her how I feel, or how to go about doing that. Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated. The thing I love most about her is the passion that she has for everything that she does. In band, she'll be the first one to arrive and one of the last ones to leave for events like contests and football games, waiting for the last kids' parents to arrive. I started waiting with her, and we talk out all of our problems or just joke around; we've gotten into some pretty deep conversations, but I still haven't been able to force myself to tell her how I feel. In her classes, she'll study insane amounts of time to get the results she wants. Perfectionist, perhaps, but then again, we're both Asian raised in the typical culture, so that overachievement is sort of to be expected. I've started taking after her and putting in the same amount of time she does, but what gets me is how she can sleep for 3 hours and still show up with a giant smile on her face. Most people think she's only cute, but I think she's the most beautiful person I've ever seen. Every move that she makes is unbearably attractive to me: the way that her face lights up when I can make her laugh, the way her eyes seem to drag me in hold me whenever she talks to me, even the little scowl she gets when some calculus problem doesn't add up correctly. I'm not sure if this is infatuation or love, but it's been going on for the past few years, and it's driving me insane. PLEASE HELP ME! I think I'll end up dying if she won't have me, but I need to do something, or else I'll regret it, I know I will. Thanks for any help you guys can give me...

How do you ask someone where they are from?

The expression is 'where are you from', and the possible synonyms include origin, birthplace, hometown, motherland, and native land.

Is it possible for a guy who you're friends with be more than just a friend?

Yes, its possible as long as the two of you are in agreement that you want to take the relationship to the next level. You cant force them and shouldn't try to convince them, it should happen naturally. Be prepared if he doesnt feel the same way.

Do your friends like you for who you are?

Actually, that's a very good question. My friends like me for who I am becuase of my qualities and personality traits. They care about you and encourage you to do your best, protect you, help you up when you fall down, and love you for who you are. But sometimes you have to watch who your friends are, because they are not always what they seem. For example, your friend can have two or multiple different sides of themselves. One side is the good friend role, and the other is the friend that drinks and becomes rude.

You should go for it and ask him out. If he says yes your in a relationship, if he says no. He can't blame a girl for trying.
