How To Make Friends

Dear Aditi, 
                 Since you are leaving, I figured you will have to make friends. I mean I am great and all, but other friends are important. Now, I am no expert in making friends. But I am pretty decent in making an impression on people. Whether it's bad or good, that really depends on the other person (it’s usually bad.)

Anyway, in my life time of searching how to make friends I realized that the only thing you really need is to be confident. Yup, that’s it. I mean that will last you about a week, and then it is the thing about finding common interests; but with the amount of fandoms I have introduced you to, I doubt that will be a problem.

Now is the question of how to be confident. And to that question, I honestly don’t know. My way of being confident is telling myself that I know this shit, and suddenly I appear confident. Honestly, you shouldn't have expected a better answer.

Think about what makes you feel bad about yourself, and then realize that no one cares! Other people have their own problems to worry about, and I know it hurts, but it’s true.

The second thing you should know about making friends is don’t creep them out. Don’t go to someone and say, ‘I'm just trying to be social.’ That might not work. Actually it would work on me, but I am not normal. The point is, don’t be creepy. Not until the third meeting, though it does depend on the person.

I have come to the point where I am just thinking, why? Why did I even start writing this? It is probably going to end up with me cringing about it later. This is like a sixth grade journal entry. Eh, whatever.

Bye-Bye.

Upa.
