How to be a good friend?

How to be a good friend?

Someone who is appreciated by others?

Someone who shares love with others?

Someone who people want to hang around with?

[Jirh]

Be grounded in your own life and purpose. Focus on yourself. It's counter-intuitive like that.

Be a source of value, and people will naturally gravitate towards you. And be kind when you relate to them. That's all friendship really is.

[Joseph Maynor]

Try to raise the creativity to co-creation and inclusion.  This is extending the link or relation.  

[Judy2]

friendship is generally created through proximity and similarity.

on top of that, i think it's important to forge an atmosphere of mutual support: when you can easily share resources (knowledge, emotional support, inviting someone for a coffee, etc.), you do so gladly because you know you'll also benefit from your friends' support soon enough. this is opposed to explicitly weighing favours against each other or keeping close track of "who invested how much".

If I think you’ll be there for me when I need you. I think of you as a good friend

[LordFall]

Offer value to people's lives and be there for them. That can be as someone they can rely on in tough times but also someone that is fun to be around, organizes cool events, brings the group together, helping people achieving their goals, etc.
