Making Personal Friends
While socializing is generally considered a pleasant, leisurely activity, various commitments and anxieties can drain the enjoyment out of your social life and make it harder to interact with others. Tackling issues with self-esteem, rejection, and other reservations can help increase your desire to socialize, while improving the way you communicate with others and taking advantage of mutual friends or similar social opportunities can help you become a more social person overall.
