How to get a friend back
If a good friend is keeping their distance and you want to reach out to them,the best approach is openness,honesty,and a willingness to acknowledge 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 rift (裂縫) in 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.
Beware of assumptions.
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
Think about what you want to say in advance.
If you feel you need to apologize,be specific about what you’ re apologizing for. 4 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. Instead,talk about how you're sorry you haven’t been making time for your friend.
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 talk in person if you can.
D. Your friend might have something troubling them.
E. Make sure it's sincere: what are you really sorry about?
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.
