Be friendly and approach people with a smile on your face. Most importantly, truly listen when others talk. When you find someone who's fun and interesting and likes doing things you like, or is knowledgeable about something you'd like to learn, let them know you'd be interested in getting together sometime. If they seem amenable set a date to engage in the activity you both like.
My best friend is still my husband, but I do cherish girl friend relationships.
1) Find out what you have in common with the person through asking a serious of questions in a friendly way.
2) Once you have established that, the bond becomes naturally because people connect to other people through sharing mutual events, friends, interests, etc.
The best approach is to have a great smile on your face.
You will find others will return your smile and conversation can be started from there. I am always a good listener so most of the time, people will start talking and I will join in the talk.
Remember that it takes 2 to be friends so you can also be the one starting the conversation. It goes either way as I normally wait for a second or two before I start the conversation.
First of all, you have to carefully observe the individual you want to be your friend, and this observation does not necessarily have to be a long time observation, ordinarily it be be done withing 5-30 minutes or more, while in some cases it can be in days, months etc.
Be a good person. Be friendly to people. Be trustworthy and don't go behind peoples back. and make sure that you're there when they need you.
Here's how.
>Smile.
> Keep that warm and sincere handshake/hug.
> Listen.Be attentive.
>Appreciate.

A friend and I had a conversation pertaining to men's lack of courage when approaching a woman to date or meet. So I conducted an experiment. On a random afternoon I had a lunch at a popular crowded restaurant. On my way out I decided to prove that there is no reason to be shy or lack...
