Get Closer to Your Friends That Are Girls

Ever want to get closer to your friends that are girls? If you do you came to the right place!

Steps

For Girls

  1. Learn about them. What hobbies do they have? Find something that you all have in common and connect through it.
  2. Have a girl’s night. Spend time together without anyone else interrupting you. Watch a movie, make dinner together, or just hang out. Savor the time you guys have alone.
  3. Ask for advice. Asking for advice will show that you trust your friends, and they’ll likely return the sentiment. Be careful not to go overboard, though. You don’t want to seem clingy or whiny.
  4. If you are old enough to travel by yourself, take a trip together. The stress and excitement of being in a new place will give you a unique experience that you can reminisce about for years to come. Spending time together in that environment will bring you closer together.
  5. Go shopping as a group. Help each other pick out clothes, bags, shoes, and accessories. Girls love doing that sort of thing and giving each other opinions. You can have a good old giggle too.
  6. Go on double dates. You’ll be able to talk in detail about the date if it goes well, and you’ll be there for each other if it doesn’t.
    • Alternatively, or in addition, set each other up with blind dates. Debrief afterwards
  7. Join a club or volunteer together. This will give you something in common and help you to relate to each other.
  8. Be there for them. Put your friends first—if one of them needs to talk, call or go over to her house as soon as you possibly can. Let them know that you’re someone to rely on and someone who will always be there for them.
  9. Be trustworthy. The fastest way to kill a friendship is to spread rumors or talk behind your friend’s backs. If they tell you a secret, keep it a secret. Even if the fact that it’s a secret isn’t explicitly stated, be sensitive to what’s private and what’s not.
  10. Don’t over-think your friendship. Let it flow naturally. It will keep the friendship from being forced.

For Guys

  1. Talk to them. Girls love to talk, and talking will help you get to know each other. Most girls appreciate a conversation much more than they appreciate playing video games with you.
  2. Ask her for advice. Asking for advice will show that you trust your friends, and they’ll likely return the sentiment. Be careful not to go overboard, though. You don’t want to seem clingy or whiny. Start with something small, if she responds well then you can keep going.
  3. Have fun with her. Treat her like one of the guys! Include her in activities, even if it is something stereotypically “boys only,” like Poker Night.
  4. Tease her when she gets too serious. Don’t go overboard - if she is really upset, teasing her will make her feel like you don’t care about her problems. However, if she is working too hard or seems lost in thought, tease her gently or tell a joke to pull her out of it and lighten the mood.
  5. Help her when she needs it. Teasing isn’t the only answer when she gets too serious—sometimes she’ll actually need someone to help her out, be it on her English essay or coping with a death.
  6. Treat her like a girl. Show that you still realize that she’s a girl. Don’t act like you don’t notice her feminine side or treat her exactly the same as you treat your male friends.
    • Flirt a little. Don’t go overboard—you don’t want her to think you like her, but a little bit of flirting is effective, especially at the beginning of a relationship.
    • Give her compliments. They don’t have to be big or super frequent, but a couple will help boost her self esteem.
