Develop Your Assertiveness

Many people mistakenly believe that being assertive entails bullying others, but the truth is that it just entails speaking to others with confidence when you have something to say. This suggests that you take immediate action to remedy a problem rather than waiting for it to worsen. Or that you offer your opinion with assurance despite the fact that you are certain your friend would disagree. You treat everyone with respect, you don't dispute, but you also don't let one person take over the conversation.

When friends cross their limits, being assertive involves gently correcting them. This makes fights less frequent and helps you avoid the unfavorable emotions that can develop over the course of a connection.

Recognize the Moments When the Message is Lost

Do you and your friends typically misunderstand each other at particular times? Have any of your Facebook plans fallen through? Or did you text a pal to arrange a meeting place but they never showed up? Or maybe your friend mistook your attempt at being compassionate in an email to be making fun of them and became upset with you.

Change the way you interact if there are specific circumstances that consistently produce issues between you and your friend. We might become far too accustomed to using Facebook or email as opposed to simply picking up the phone and leaving a message. Change your communication strategy if the one you're utilizing isn't working. To do this, you might have to step outside of your comfort zone.
