Friendship is an important aspect of our lives.
Friendships enrich us, motivate us to grow, and form part of our support system. Friendships should be healthy, and mutual.
You can continue to grow your friendships and foster social connections with your friends through the following ways.
Have regular film nights or start a book club
You can settle on having film/movie nights with your friends, or start a book club if both of you love reading.
Host a game night or play games online
Keep things simple and play board games, card games, icebreaker games, and games that help you know each other better.
You can also play games online.
Exercise/take walks together
If you live in close proximity or have visited each other, you can take a walk together.
Exercising together is also an activity to do with your friend.
Watch a sporting event
This can be Olympics or a sporting event of your choice.
Have a manicure or pedicure day
A manicure or pedicure day is also an activity you can enjoy with your friends. You can have it at the salon or opt for one at home.
