I've never been the type of person who can make friends easily. I don't think most of us are, but we all know at least one of those people that can make friends with anyone anywhere. My college bestie was one of these people. I often wondered just how she knew so many people, was invited to so many parties, and was always so busy. I have since realized that she was just really good at putting herself out there.
I am not good at putting myself out there. It took me 2 years of living in Saskatoon before I made any really close friends, and some of my very best friends are people that I worked with from the day I moved here!
For the most part, I'm happy with my life, but I wonder if I'd be a little happier if I were more willing to put myself out there. So, I'm resolving to put myself out there a little more often. Mayber I'll ask people out for drinks or actually show up at other people's social events (even if they involve the bar or some ball sport!). It can't hurt me, right?
