Tips On Fitting In


Now that final exams are almost over or are done with for most of us so we are all ready for hanging out, BBQs and having summer parties. So I thought I'd do a little research on friendships and how to get along. I found some tips on 'fitting in' with your friends -- they're Traits that Help You Hang Out with Other People from Succeed Socially.

Here's a gist of those tips:

  • A tolerance for mildly flaky, unreliable behavior
  • A tolerance for unpredictability (or the ability to go with the flow)
  • The ability to amuse yourself when you have to
  • A tolerance for other people's stupidity (being drunk, reckless, messy, etc.)
  • A thick enough skin to not take joking too seriously
  • A tolerance for little annoyances in the situations you find yourself in
  • Not being too stingy with your money
  • You can throw yourself into what everyone else is doing and not get stuck in your head
  • You're not too self-focused
  • You can contribute to people's conversations

True friendship is seen also on good-bye. A lack feeling is set prior the friend going away. I sing this message in my three languages song - Portuguese, Spanish and English (not so good, I know). You can hear it illustrated in this Youtube video:
