Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, you can improve it if you are(耐心的). If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take action. You must first go where there are people.

    Joining a club or a group, talking to those who(分享)the same hobbies with you.

    Many people are(紧张的)when talking to new people. After all, meeting a (陌生人)means seeing the unknown. And it's common to feel a bit unpleasant about the unknown. Most of fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about(我们自己). We imagine other people are judging us. But don't forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to(接受)yourself as you are, and try to make others feel at home. You'll all feel more comfortable.

    Try to be brave even if you don't feel that way when you (进入)a room full of people. Walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.

    If you see someone you'd like to speak to, say something instead of keeping(沉默的). Don't wait(直到)the other person starts a conversation.

    Just meeting someone new does not mean that you'll make friends with that person. It takes time and effort for us to develop friendship.
