Being ignored and ditched by my friends as a kid, made me a person that thinks I'm a burden to everyone, and that my (same and potential) friends actually hate me. I'm trying to learn how to not think like this, but it's so difficult, it's made me avoid people. And since I'm not in school anymore, not going outside makes my lack of social skills really show lol. It doesn't help that I've always been a quiet person too. I just hope I can eventually become more confident... 😭
Hi, as the one who was bullied for being a good Student in the primary school I feel what that feels. I'd tried to make up, to be aware that is not fair in this world needs a huge powr. I'm so proud of you for trying
exactly this. Now i think everyone hates or envies me so i can't maintain a friendship with them. I overanalyse everything they did because i have trust issues.
I'm mostly misjudged as a "mean girl" since i have a resting bitch face. The fact that I'm socially awkward and tend to accidentally ignore people (bcz Idk how to fcking communicate 💀) also doesn't help the case. Tbh I'm actually a really kind person and love to meet new people but because of poor communicating skills I'm not able to do so. This video was definitely needed 💗
Story of my life 😭 I used to avoid talking to people, cause I would get anxious and think that they would be annoyed by me talking to them. I would literally make direct eye contact with someone, wondering whether or it’d be ok if I said hi, and will say nothing 😭 and then I feel bad cause they’re always saying hi first. I had to tell myself that it’s never that serious, and that people won’t mind if you talk to them. Ever since I started going by that, my social life improved so much :) I don’t have the strong friendships that I want/used to have, but life is a journey🙌🏽
Something that I’ve needed to learn is that not everyone needs to be your ride or die! It’s good to have a few ride or die friends but it’s okay to have surface friends too. You shouldn’t have really high expectations of people and immediately drop them when they mess up because I used to do that and I had no friends. And you don’t need to have one perfect friend you can have a lot of people who you relate and like for different reasons.
@@nataliaaa18 What I mean is a friend who you want to be completely devoted to you, like a best friend. I don't think every friend is meant to be your best friend.
@@joanna48162 To me there's a difference between a fake friend and a surface friend. A surface friend is just a friend you know because of something you have in common(an interest, friend group, club, sport, etc.). Surface friends are definitely real, they just aren't as close as a best friend. I can trust my surface friends, but they aren't the people I immediately go to when I need support. But, having a lot of friends isn't for everyone. Some people enjoy only having best friends and no surface friends. To each their own, but I find myself a lot happier having more people in my life who I can relate and hang out with.
True took me so long to realise this now I am a surface level friend with many people and we have our own inside jokes and fun I found friendships overbearing in the past now it's so much easier and I am really happy that one person isn't draining all my energy
1.-Go out alone & Aproach without hesitation (ask for a opinion, give a compliment) 2.-Clubs, sports, any hobbie u like 3.-Tiktok, Facebook or slide into someone dm's (social media) 4.-Don't be a pleaser to try to MAKE THEM like u, be cool & chill 5.-ASK & LISTEN
i recently started watching your videos after a messy breakup, and i love your content! i’m currently building up myself and my confidence little by little. a literal godsend! thank you so much!
@@shubhra-w2d thank you so much!! i’m doing a lot better now since i started watching tam’s videos and i’m learning to appreciate myself a lot more everyday. ((: here’s to learning to loving and treating ourselves right!
Your talk on friendship trauma was so real, thank you for talking about that. I just recently realized that I isolated myself from my best friend because of something that happened with my highschool classmates. I really appreciate your videos 🤍
i have just finished your video on toxic friends, and I started following and watching you TODAY. Tomorrow I have a new friend to meet (we meet via online ) and I was just thinking "I wish she had a video on how to make friends as an adult" AND THEN YOU POSTED!!!! YOURE AMAZING!! You anticipated the needs perfectly.
I didn't even know friendship trauma was a thing till now, thank you💗this video has literally answered so many things about friendship I had on my mind for a while now
I have a-lot of friendship trauma, I could write a whole essay about how it effects people in ways we don’t know about. I’m still working on my personal stuff but this video definitely helped❤
Friendship trauma is very much a thing trust me, I cut off many people because I was giving too much when I didn't know my worth And sometimes it just ends on weird terms my tip is that if you're not ready to let go but you know you need to then just write them a letter don't send it just express your feelings and it'll be peaceful after you get everything out and along the way you will realise how positively or negatively it effected you
watching this makes me realize what an amazing friend group i have. i used to be surrounded by toxic people since literal elementary school days. through the last couple of years the original trio in my class, who were always in their own world kind of like adopted me 😭 now going into my last years of high school, i couldnt be more grateful as they are the most loyal and amazing people i have ever met
Hope this summary helps😊: 1. making friends can be easy. 2.green flags are positive energy, trust, loyalty, respect, vulnerability, alignment,effort and communication. 3. Set your standards eg what experiences do you want together? Their traits? Shared values? My expectations? My non-negotiables? 4. Be open, loving and trusting to allow the right friendships to come into your life. You are worthy of friendship. How you was treated before (badly) was more to do with that person than you (dont let bad experiences ruin your future). 5. Why do you want to make friends? What can you bring to the table? What kind of friend do you want? 6. Take small steps eg send the text. Build up from there. Stop making excuses as that’s self-sabotaging. Be compassionate & patient with yourself up. 7. Take up a regular hobby/exercise to find like-minded people so you can talk about interests. 8. Could use social media eg tiktok to ask if there’s anyone else out there (but do be careful with strangers). 9. Focus on listening as people love talking about themselves, so ask them questions and compliment them. If they share something, you could too but don’t overshare something you’ll regret. 10. Repeat back to them what they said in your own words. Radiate positivity, be light-hearted & smile. Talk positively about others. Good luck, im on my own journey too❤
Hey can i say you something??? Where ever i go i meet people and i noticed a thing is that every single person has a bestfriend...they just talk to me for time waste...after their best friends come they forget me or ignore me...i feel sad because everyone does that with me that's why i can't even make a genuine friend who loves or listens to me How can i make friends even in this situation???
I'm really struggling at making friends and socializing, and your insights have been incredibly helpful. I appreciate the tips and advice you shared, and I'm looking forward to putting them into practice. It can be difficult to put yourself out there and connect with new people, but I'm feeling more confident and motivated after watching your video. Thank you for taking the time to create this resource!
you are literally that friend and energy I love having in my life... and hanging out with you through your videos has actually helped my mental health, recognising my value, and just appreciating the strengths of positive energy... loving this community ♡
Hi, as the one who was bullied for being a good Student in the primary school as just a Baby. I feel what that feels. I'd tried to make up, to be aware that is not fair needs a huge power. I'm so proud of you
Watching you speak like you do made me feel SO much more confident. I thought a girl in my class was going to be my bestie but she said i was negative and she said she wanted to be with friends that are more energetic and i did so much for her and I went to her if she needed help but she just walked away . She clearly didn't see what i was actually like. I was being kind to her and in return she was just mean to me. Now I feel like i can make a change when i see her again.
i have very high expectations and goals for myself, but no one in my friend group does. i’ve been in this same friend group for two years. last year i did not perform good in school and was not involved whatsoever because of them, they made me feel silly for caring about all that. this year, i have been doing what i want but i still let their opinions affect me. they are extremely negative about the things i care about and very bitter. the issue is i don’t know how to find other friends and i am scared to sit alone which is why i still go with them 😭
@ matcha444 I can relate to that. A friend of mine lets me feel uncomftable very often when we meet because of her character trait to boss all the people around. Unfortunately, I seem to be the only person of our group recoginising it and thats why it is so hard to talk about her with sb else.
I’m SO glad you posted this. I literally cried when you talked about the self sabotaging part bc I’VE been doing this to myself for years now. And having someone my age talk about this subject so deeply really makes it resonate more. ❤️
Honestly, thank you so so so so so much for this video. During quarantine, my socializing skills got SO bad, and I'm also lowkey scared that people don't like me because I'm ugly or weird, or gross or something, idk. But rn, it's summer break, and one of my goals is to become more confident so yeah. THANK U
Heya Tam! I was worried regarding my life from past few months as I have faced both toxic friendship and relationship. Fortunately I found your channel in my healing process. I am following your tips since a month. I can relate to each of the points you discuss in your videos as I wanted the same life for myself. Thanks for being a true and genuine guide!! You're a saviour.❤
Can’t wait to watch this!! I’ve been changing my life these past weeks and having you along for the ride has been so motivational❤️ You are incredible :-)
you're so bubbly and emotionally intelligent and reflective and wise and I just discovered you but wow you're really helpful and im so glad I discovered you (and simonesquared and thewizardliz too! - you all have similar takes and different strategies and it's so helpful).
I don’t usually comment on videos, but this was GOOD, girl! Amazing structure, and such helpful, thorough, insightful content! I feel so clear and inspired to go forth and friend
girl last month you had 3.9k subs around!! and i knew it you gonna blow up cuz the topics you choose to talk about are amazing and that's why i subscribed you this instant 😭😭!! now you about to reach 100k yayyy
I used to unconsciously give myself props for accomplishing a good manner towards anybody. Now I realize I need it more than ever! It just means you care for the individual, but most especially YOURSELF, that you indeed are overcoming goals,
I have always struggled with making friends and taking to strangers. I reailsed a lot and i look forward to put the tips in practice. You r amazing and U covered everything perfectly.
Watching your videos is like speaking to a wise friend or a therapist as it brings so much calmness, soothes and makes me feel seen and understood. You are a wise woman indeed. Keep going! Love from India.
Ok. I got this. I am doing this. I started working on myself a few monthes ago and even if it is baby steps, its steps. I realized a lot about self-love and postive enrgy and being happy around yourself. I also realized I had a bunch of bad friends. I started avoiding them, seperating myslef from them. Not talking to them too much. I also realized that I feel like a lonely pathetic person for doing this. And then I clicked on to your video and I'm going to start trying. I GOT THIS.
i took a good baby step when i started actually starting conversations with my brothers girlfriend and now we laugh all the time about embarrassing shit we do lmao shes pretty fun to hang out with.
Working on my confidence and I’m trying to get rid of limiting beliefs and excuses. ♥️ I really want to find my dream group of friends. Love your videos Tam 😊
Tam you were heaven sent! I’m really trying to improve myself and I can tell that your videos (in combination with me working on myself independently) is really gonna help!♥️♥️
I’ve been watching plenty of videos every day on youtube but never commented on any videos. But u made me do it today. I’ ve been watching yr videos & u girl slayed in each one. Thank u for such a amazing talk. Love you ❤
amazing! this is just what i needed. i had tons of friends in high school, but it was ridiculously easy to make friends around then. now that i'm in college, i'm a bit of a loner. i only have 1 friend and that's my roommate. i'll make sure to take all this advice
I just wanted to say that i recently found your channel, and your videos are so therapeutic to me. You feel like an older sister giving me life advice, which is so nice because i never really had a female figure to look up to. Im actually around your age, I'll be 22 in a month, but these videos are just so nice and comfy to watch, and just what i need at this point of my life. Thank you, girl, you are so appreciated 💗
Thank you so much. When I first started to make friends it was really hard for me and I didn't no what exactly to do and how to make them interested in me. now with your advices I know how to make conversations with people that I might will try to connect with.
i love this video! this is the first time I've actually seen someone on RUclips give really detailed advice that i can try to use i feel like a lot of people can be really vague when talking about things like this so thank u i will try to push myself out of my comfort zone
My problem is that I'm mostly sad/really anxious, and it's impossible for me to smile and be positive because it just feels so fake (I've been struggling with friendship and social skills since my early childhood). I remember wishing to be given a step-by-step instuction on how to talk and communicate with each person I meet like Sheldon Copper's relationship agreement. There are definetely lots of good advices on this video and I'm really thankful😊
as an autistic person who also has social anxiety, i just wanna say tysm !! these vids really help me a lot and i wanna be more of an outgoing person, and these are extremely helpful !
tip to know if a person is not loyal and trustworthy: if they talk bad abt others. i'm saying this as someone who used to talk bad abt friend 2 to friend 1 then go to friend 2 to talk bad abt friend 1. i have changed but i never trust people like that anymore cause if they talk bad abt someone else to u they would talk bad abt u behind ur back in a heartbeat.
at the same time friends also has a negative connotation, like if you meet a group of friends, you are not part of them, they have a history and a way of talking and you may feel like an outsider and they may see you as not one of them.
you are the kind of friend I wanna be with 💕 love your energy sooo much 🥰 thank you for this video ❤ I am confident that my future gonna be full of beautiful friendships truly meant for me 💕
This is actually a REALLY good video! I’ve been realizing I that need to make some new friends and when I go to a new school I’m gonna need to make them QUICK. Because it’s always easier to make friends at the beginning of the year because I don’t want to be left out, or in a bad clique. Thankyou!
This has seriously been one of the most helpful and engaging videos I have watched in a while. Thank you so much for putting the time into making this video, it made me feel more connected and understood!
I answered the questions you displayed and I can’t thank you enough! I can now see what I truly value and literally see why so many friendships never worked out! This video has helped me a lot on my healing❤
Thank you so much. You help me a lot advices. I always struggle to be myself and sometimes I’m nit myself and not really confident but this video help me:)
Why do I now realize all my friends are low maintenance to the point its very bad, like for example how they think anything and everything is “ not that deep” so they just dont care and its to the point our friendships just bad..lacking lots of necessary things..
wow this video was such an eye opener cause i realized i am still healing from a toxic friendship i had and that's why i've been isolating myself. thank you so much for this
leaving a toxic friendship isn't that easy, i had one this year and i end up blocking the friend on Instagram, i dont know if we are over yet or not cuz i didnt met her yet face to face, but imma do when im back to school, and im afraid if she still wanna get me back like just leave me alonnnnne.
I know this is a month old video so you are probably not gonna read my comment, but I just got to say that this video made me feel happy and confident and ready to make friends. It also helped me relize its not that hard and I have nothing to lose. Thank you for letting me know this
i just found your channel very recently and let's just say it has been incredible! your videos have helped me so much, especially your confidence ones, as i'm trying to build up my confidence, your channel means a lot to me so keep up the good work and i'll continue to watch and support
Wow this really hit me deep. I almost stared crying, thank you so much for the advice. I need to start taking control of my life and have the confidence to complete it. I will try my best to follow your advice! 😊
I feel that it's important to focus on what you can give others more than what you can get out from them. Still trying to implement that in my own life but it's when you give that you receive
I got you covered 😉 20:19

It’s easier making friends than maintaining them.
So true 😔
i need a video on this lol

Yes working on my friend retention
This exactly happens to me but I think I'm the problem.
Friends who love to party and drink should not be the only friends. Make friends who have different lifestyles and hobbies.

Yup me too, but on the bright side, having an rbf means that strangers and creeps don't talk to me!
Im misjudged for not even being alive
I have a RBF but it’s like a defense mechanism. I try to look approachable but it’s hard cause I don’t want to always speaks first.

I don’t usually comment on videos, but this was GOOD, girl! Amazing structure, and such helpful, thorough, insightful content! I feel so clear and inspired to go forth and friend
Thank you so much!!
girl last month you had 3.9k subs around!! and i knew it you gonna blow up cuz the topics you choose to talk about are amazing and that's why i subscribed you this instant 😭😭!! now you about to reach 100k yayyy
ahhhh THANK YOU 😭✨💕
Sadly people in my school dont have any of these things, thats why i mostly prefer to be alone and im surprisingly comfortable with it🎀
Fr I had a friendship which was so toxic in my school so cut off with them and I started being alone and protecting my peace happily
✨You are literally a life saver ✨
you are my savings teenagers
Lots of love from my side ✨
Girl you're literally the big sis I never had
I used to unconsciously give myself props for accomplishing a good manner towards anybody. Now I realize I need it more than ever! It just means you care for the individual, but most especially YOURSELF, that you indeed are overcoming goals,
I have always struggled with making friends and taking to strangers. I reailsed a lot and i look forward to put the tips in practice. You r amazing and U covered everything perfectly.
Watching your videos is like speaking to a wise friend or a therapist as it brings so much calmness, soothes and makes me feel seen and understood. You are a wise woman indeed. Keep going! Love from India.
Ok. I got this. I am doing this.
I started working on myself a few monthes ago and even if it is baby steps, its steps. I realized a lot about self-love and postive enrgy and being happy around yourself. I also realized I had a bunch of bad friends. I started avoiding them, seperating myslef from them. Not talking to them too much. I also realized that I feel like a lonely pathetic person for doing this. And then I clicked on to your video and I'm going to start trying. I GOT THIS.
i took a good baby step when i started actually starting conversations with my brothers girlfriend and now we laugh all the time about embarrassing shit we do lmao shes pretty fun to hang out with.
Ur eyeshadow is so pretty eyeliner lipstick and accesories on point 🥺 the thumbnails to all ur vids are also so cute
I’m such a huge fan, you boosted my self esteem and happiness ❤
I’m so glad thank u🥹
Welcome, and thank you 😊
Working on my confidence and I’m trying to get rid of limiting beliefs and excuses. ♥️ I really want to find my dream group of friends. Love your videos Tam 😊
Tam you were heaven sent! I’m really trying to improve myself and I can tell that your videos (in combination with me working on myself independently) is really gonna help!♥️♥️
I’ve been watching plenty of videos every day on youtube but never commented on any videos. But u made me do it today. I’ ve been watching yr videos & u girl slayed in each one. Thank u for such a amazing talk. Love you ❤
amazing! this is just what i needed. i had tons of friends in high school, but it was ridiculously easy to make friends around then. now that i'm in college, i'm a bit of a loner. i only have 1 friend and that's my roommate. i'll make sure to take all this advice
Making friends is so hard, but this video gives great tips on how to make it easier, especially for socially awkward people.
I just wanted to say that i recently found your channel, and your videos are so therapeutic to me. You feel like an older sister giving me life advice, which is so nice because i never really had a female figure to look up to. Im actually around your age, I'll be 22 in a month, but these videos are just so nice and comfy to watch, and just what i need at this point of my life. Thank you, girl, you are so appreciated 💗

Hi
How are you☺?
Thank you so much. When I first started to make friends it was really hard for me and I didn't no what exactly to do and how to make them interested in me. now with your advices I know how to make conversations with people that I might will try to connect with.
i just went through a friendship breakup and reallyyyy needed this. thank youuu!!!!!1
❤️❤️
I learned turning down bad friends no matter how desperate u are makes you seem more valuable and confident
i love this video! this is the first time I've actually seen someone on RUclips give really detailed advice that i can try to use i feel like a lot of people can be really vague when talking about things like this so thank u i will try to push myself out of my comfort zone
UR SO FREAKING PRETTY, HOWWW
My problem is that I'm mostly sad/really anxious, and it's impossible for me to smile and be positive because it just feels so fake (I've been struggling with friendship and social skills since my early childhood). I remember wishing to be given a step-by-step instuction on how to talk and communicate with each person I meet like Sheldon Copper's relationship agreement. There are definetely lots of good advices on this video and I'm really thankful😊
I know I‘m pretty late to the party… But this video is a gift and more helpful than I could have imagined. Thank you! ☀️
as an autistic person who also has social anxiety, i just wanna say tysm !!
these vids really help me a lot and i wanna be more of an outgoing person, and these are extremely helpful !
WHAT TO TALK ABOUT IS THE BEST PART, HONESTLY IVE NEVER THOUGHT HOW TO START FRIENDSHIPS CORRECTLY. I HARDLY EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY !! LOVE YOU ❤❤
People telling me to “talk to people, start a conversation, it’s not that hard” is like telling a smoker “just quit cold turkey it’s not that hard”.
real, IT IS HARD
This is actually very good video, I randomly stumbled into this and am very impressed!
tip to know if a person is not loyal and trustworthy:
if they talk bad abt others. i'm saying this as someone who used to talk bad abt friend 2 to friend 1 then go to friend 2 to talk bad abt friend 1. i have changed but i never trust people like that anymore cause if they talk bad abt someone else to u they would talk bad abt u behind ur back in a heartbeat.
So you're the pot and the kettle all by yourself 🤣 LMAO
@@1Channel1 hey to be clear i did that like five years ago when i was like 13
Hey I was just teasing you,man@@nusayba864 it's great that you have changed yourself and positive ways😀
at the same time friends also has a negative connotation, like if you meet a group of friends, you are not part of them, they have a history and a way of talking and you may feel like an outsider and they may see you as not one of them.
you are the kind of friend I wanna be with 💕 love your energy sooo much 🥰 thank you for this video ❤ I am confident that my future gonna be full of beautiful friendships truly meant for me 💕
You know i trust this girl with my whole life
You are so relatable and intelligent 😩
i recently found your channel and i CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGHHHH ur tips honestly changed me
You're so welcome!🥹❤️
This was SO HELPFUL I’ve been struggling with making friends I actually connect with so thank you so much for this video❤️
1. repeat back to them what they just said
2. ask advice
3. talk positively abt others
4. radiate positive energy
This is actually a REALLY good video! I’ve been realizing I that need to make some new friends and when I go to a new school I’m gonna need to make them QUICK. Because it’s always easier to make friends at the beginning of the year because I don’t want to be left out, or in a bad clique. Thankyou!
Healing ptsd and attachment trauma!! Thats the one fs!! Then your heart can be more open without fear
Yupp healed version of me is much better at friendships now than when I was 16
This was so helpful!! I was feeling sad about high school but you helped understand the thing with friendships thanks
This video was very, helpful, most escpecially healing from friendship trauma Thank you.
I was neglected as a kid and moved places 12 times. Never had a good friend group. Its hard girl
This is video is golden ✨ made me realized how low my standards were just in the sake of not feeling lonely
i was legit thinking about this topic while watching your videos yesterday omgggg
Perfect! Hope it helps!! 💖
It’s so beautiful to see how as we evolved as humans we meet different people on our paths ❤
This has seriously been one of the most helpful and engaging videos I have watched in a while. Thank you so much for putting the time into making this video, it made me feel more connected and understood!
0:06 AYO LETS GO SCORED ALL THREE 💀💀

Such a wonderful video, thank you! ^^
This is the video for me 😂❤ thank you girl
I answered the questions you displayed and I can’t thank you enough! I can now see what I truly value and literally see why so many friendships never worked out! This video has helped me a lot on my healing❤
Most friends will try to change you into doing bad habits never let them control you always have friends with the same interests number 1
Thank you so much. You help me a lot advices. I always struggle to be myself and sometimes I’m nit myself and not really confident but this video help me:)
Omg you liked my comment thank you so much
Nah I literally texted Tam asking her to post more cause I love it and here we are !!
I GOT U!! 😉💖
Why do I now realize all my friends are low maintenance to the point its very bad, like for example how they think anything and everything is “ not that deep” so they just dont care and its to the point our friendships just bad..lacking lots of necessary things..
wow this video was such an eye opener cause i realized i am still healing from a toxic friendship i had and that's why i've been isolating myself. thank you so much for this
leaving a toxic friendship isn't that easy, i had one this year and i end up blocking the friend on Instagram, i dont know if we are over yet or not cuz i didnt met her yet face to face, but imma do when im back to school, and im afraid if she still wanna get me back like just leave me alonnnnne.
I know this is a month old video so you are probably not gonna read my comment, but I just got to say that this video made me feel happy and confident and ready to make friends. It also helped me relize its not that hard and I have nothing to lose. Thank you for letting me know this
We have the same name
This is the best video on how to make friends I’ve come across in the last 2 years 👏🙌
I have discovered your channel this month and truly enjoy your energy. It is easily shared through the screen 💚

Wow this really hit me deep. I almost stared crying, thank you so much for the advice. I need to start taking control of my life and have the confidence to complete it. I will try my best to follow your advice! 😊
I just entered the university and in my country it works differently, but anyway the same human beings, thanks for the tips ❤️
Before finding friends as mentioned in this vd make sure you are also worthy to those people....😌
^^
mother is mothering 🙌🏻🙌🏻
i literally needed this rn rn 💗
I got you 🥰
I feel that it's important to focus on what you can give others more than what you can get out from them. Still trying to implement that in my own life but it's when you give that you receive
