Remember: a true friend doesn’t flee when changes happen. Nothing is 2 for new parents
than to find that their unmarried friends have left them because of the coming of baby. A good friend is one who stays true 3 it all in life – marriage, parenthood, new jobs, new homes, and so on.
Make sure you aren’t being a burden to a friend.
Friendships will lose if there isn’t a 4 between the give and the take. Be sensitive to how much your friend can and can’t offer you –and don’t overstep the mark.
Be a good listener.
It can be the hardest thing in the world to do – simply to listen as he or she 5 it all out or is seeking your advice or opinion. To be a better listener, follow this advice:
Keep eye contact. Offer nods and murmurs to show that you understand his or her point of view. Don’t finish your 6 sentences. While your friend keeps on talking, you should gently 7 yourself to focus.
