Summary of Hope Kelaher's Here to Make Friends

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Friendship is one of the most important components of a person’s health, well-being, and happiness. It is important to differentiate between familial and nonfamilial friendship, as the former is defined as a relationship with someone you know and with whom you have a bond of emotional closeness and reciprocity, while the latter is a choice and can end at any moment.

#2 The best way to maintain friendships is through face-to-face contact. Seeing someone in person fosters a shared connection that you can’t get on social media. Sharing experiences and laughs with real friends reduces stress and increases pleasure.

#3 It is important to have conflict in high-quality friendships, as it helps you understand your friend’s feelings and perspectives. Without empathy, conflict resolution in a friendship may leave each person feeling unheard, unseen, and uncared for.

#4 It is not the quantity but the quality of your friendships that matters. You should try not to focus on expanding your outermost network of friends, but instead invest time and energy in your closest social circles.
