Friendships

 

Remember

• Friendships can be complicated.
• When you want to get to know someone, it helps to talk about things that you have in common.
• Your friends should not pressure you to do things that make you feel uncomfortable or bad about yourself.

 

Friendships are fun and make us feel special but it is also normal for friendships to be complicated and confusing sometimes. Choosing the right kinds of friends is important. Read on to get the answers to the most commonly asked questions about teen friendships.

 

Why do all of my friendships seem to be changing?

Your friendships are changing because you and all of your friends are changing. The teenage years are a time of physical, emotional, and social growth and change. These changes don't happen at the same time, or at the same speed, from one person to the next.

 

Is there anything I can do to keep from losing my friends?

You might not have to end old friendships, but the relationships may need to change. You may find that you don't have as much in common as you used to. It's important to pay attention to your feelings, and to know what you enjoy doing. If your friends seem to be spending more time in activities that you don't enjoy, you may be happier finding some new friends who share your interests.

 

How do I begin a friendship with someone I like?

Some people are naturally outgoing and have no trouble making friends. Other are more shy and find it harder to get to know people. When you want to get to know someone, it helps to think of some things ahead of time that you could talk about. You may want to compliment them on something you notice about them or ask them something about school or an activity they are involved in. It may also help if you have an interest or activity in common.

 

What can I do to try to hold onto a friendship?

There are a few things you can do to try to keep a friend even though you and your friend seem to be growing apart. You can try to talk to your friend about your feelings, letting your friend know that he or she is still important to you even though your interests are changing. You might try out something that your friend has become interested in, such as a sport or invite your old friend to share a new interest of yours. If there are one or two activities that you both still like to do, maybe you can plan to get together once in a while to enjoy them, even though you may spend more and more time apart.

 

What if my parents don't like my friends?

Sometimes parents think that a friend may be a bad influence on you. It is worth listening to their concerns. You may be able to reassure them about your friend or they may have observations about your friend that you have not noticed.

 

What if I like my friends but I don't like what they are doing?

Sometimes friends, even people you have been friends with for a long time, may begin to do things that you are uncomfortable with, like using drugs, drinking, or stealing. They may or may not pressure you to join them. It may be hard, but you will need to judge for yourself about how much time to spend with these friends. It can be difficult and uncomfortable to make new friends, but it imay be necessary and worth the effort in the long run.

 

How do I know when it's time to give up on a friendship?

It's not easy to lose someone who has been an important part of your life. But if you're feeling really uncomfortable with your friend, or if you feel like your friend is putting pressure on you to do things that you don't want to do, or doesn't treat you with respect, or makes you feel bad about yourself, then it's probably time to move on. Trust your feelings.

 

I don't feel the same about my old friends, but I don't want to end up alone and bored. What can I do?

As you find yourself growing away from old friends, you'll want to make some new friends who share your interests. Some great ways to make new friends are by checking out clubs at school and after school activities, getting involved in sports, music, dance, or fitness classes, or becoming a volunteer. If you take part in activities that interest you, you are sure to meet people who you'll have things in common with.

 

Changes in friendship can be hard, especially while you're dealing with all the other changes during your teenage years. The good news is that it will get easier. The most important thing is to focus on being yourself, even as you seem to change from one day to the next. You might find it helpful to talk to an adult such as a parent, relative, teacher, or counselor, because, after all, every adult was a teenager at some point in his or her life, so they may remember what you're going through and be able to help you get through the tough times.

Friendship is a tree

热1 2009-02-24 18:15

Friendship is a tree(i like this poem,so i want to share it with all of you!)

When busy, I want to take a break.

With coming of the holiday, I will think of future

When needy, I am thirsty for wealth

But when life settles down in peace, I am concerned that happiness will soon vanish.

The very time I need to resolve, I am worried about the unexpected result.

But after seeing everything through, I am greatly regretful for not having made a decision originally.

Something that does not belong to me always provokes my strong desire.

But when gripping it tightly in hand, I am desperately missing the leisure when I did not have it.

If life is not for the present, for when?

One man can be your lifelong relative without any reason, but he can never be your lifelong friend without any reason.

I will think of everything about you, and every drop of our past, wondering whether we can chat heart-to-heart before the computer like now when we get old?

However it might be, I wish we could be earnest friends forever.

Friends hope you can also know them well

Wish you could treasure every friend around you

We can be friends because of the kindly arrangement by fate.

It is a more marvelous thing that we can become bosom friends!

Time may not be the reason we became bosom friends

But can surely prove that your care for your friends will never be unavailing. I wish you could be my good friend forever!

Friend is the person with whom you want to share your happiness.

Friend is the person to whom you can lose your temper if unhappy.

Friend is the person who you can turn to when needy

Friend is the person who can stay with you when you are desperately tedious.

Friend is the person for whom you want to buy a big gift when buying keepsakes.

If you want to know the value of one year, you can turn to the student who failed the exam and has taken the course again

If you want to know the value of a month, you can turn to a woman who has delivered a premature one month earlier.

If you wan to know the value of a week, you can turn to editor of a weekly magazine.

If you want to know the value of an hour, you can turn to the lovers waiting for meeting their beloveds.

If you want to know the value of a minute, you can turn to a traveler who has missed the train

If you want to know the value of a second, you can turn to a person who has just struggled away from death

If you want to know the value of a millisecond, you can turn to an athlete who has lost the gold medal.

Friend is the one who is eager to share with you every little bit of appreciation.

Friend is the one who you can support your shoulders with hands when you are crying to death.

Friend is the one who can hold tightly your hands when you are in the face of setbacks.

It is meant for you that you can see him and know him

So is it for you that you can make friends with him

Though you may not know when the meteor will disappear, if you cherish every moment of seeing it, then you will never feel the least regretful when it’s gone.

Please cherish everyone around you and your mutual relationships.

Forming a friendship is like growing a tree, for friendship is actually a tree.

T:Trust(信任)

R:Respect(尊重)

E:Exchange(交流)

E:Emotional Support(精神支持)

Friend is the unseen force that helps you out through rains and storms.

Friend is a marvelous feeling that can barely be depicted with words.

Friend is the one who will always stand besides you in the presence of others!
