JAKARTA - Humans are social creatures. So it's natural to want to establish relationships with other people. Although making and maintaining friendships is an important part of social life. But after a certain age, you will find it difficult to find like-minded people who are willing to share the ups and downs of life with you.

If you meet new people or have friends you already consider friends, there are times when you wonder if they see you the same way or not. To help you identify which ones are true friends or not, VOI launches Very Well Mind, Wednesday, August 24th, sharing tips on how to recognize if someone doesn't really want to be friends with you.

You are always the first to contact

Whether or not someone is friends with you can be seen from their desire to contact you first. If you're always the first to start a conversation, this is a sign that he doesn't want to be in a close relationship with you. So, you should be more sensitive and keep your distance from the person. Instead of wasting time, find someone else to befriend.

Not enthusiastic when contacted

Another way to indicate someone doesn't want to be friends is the lack of response or response he gives during interacting with you. If he or she only responds to your question with one word or is less enthusiastic about having a conversation, it's best not to contact that person again.

Stiff when talking

When people want to be friends, you can tell by the way they talk to you. He doesn't hesitate to make jokes while chatting to lighten the mood. However, it will be different if the other person you are friends with tends to be stiff or too polite when talking. This of course causes your conversation with him to be stiff and dry.

Avoid meeting

The most obvious sign that someone doesn't want to be friends with you is when they keep their distance and tend to shy away from meeting you. There is always a reason to cancel a meeting agenda. In fact, if someone likes to be close to you, anything will be done to be able to meet them, especially if they haven't seen each other for a long time.
