V.七选五
If a good friend is keeping their distance
and you want to reach out to them,the best
approach is openness,honesty,and willingness
to understand your friend's feelings.1
Here are some specific steps to get a friend back.
2
There is most likely a specific reason for
the gap of your friendship.Consider the situation
as objectively as you can.Even if you feel wronged
by your friend,consider the possibility that
somewhere along the line you have also hurt
them in ways that you weren't aware of.
Be aware of other reasons.
If there seems to be no clear reason for
your friend's distance,don't jump to conclusions.
It may have nothing to do with you.3 A
failure in a test,a different opinion from others
or a quarrel between parents can all affect your
friend,which temporarily keeps him/her away
from you.
Think about what you want to say in advance.
If you feel you need to apologize,be specific
about what you're apologizing for.Make sure
it's sincere:what are you really sorry about?
For example,if you've been ignoring your
friend because you're spending all your time
with a new friend,it isn't appropriate to
apologize for spending time with this other
person.4
Call your friend or ask to meet.
5 Body language can communicate a
lot more than just your voices and may help
avoid misunderstandings.If you ask to meet,
try to avoid unclear phrases like,"We need to
talk."These can put your friend on the defensive.
Instead,try a more emotionally rooted approach
like,“I miss you..”or“I was just hoping we
could spend a little time together."
A.Reflect on what happened.
B.Talk about things that you'd like to change.
C.It's probably best to have a face-to-face talk
if you can.
D.Your friend might have something else
troubling them.
E.Instead,say sorry that you haven't been
making time for your friend.
F.Both of you might need time to process
what the other has said.
G.Take your time,be thoughtful,and hopefully
you can repair the damage.
