Do you want to meet people from other countries? Do you want to have friends from around the world? It's easy...if you know how.

Foreigners want friends too, but we don't try to find friends. Friends come from spending time with each other. So don't rush friendships.

What is your purpose for making friends? To help you speak English better? Just to have fun? Or do you need help with something?

It's easier to make friends when you and he or she want the same thing. Do you both like music? Maybe you both like reading or art. Join a group that has something you enjoy doing in Second Life.

And Finally, and this is REALLY important, don't add them as a friend until you make a plan to meet again. For example, "OK Kenji. I'll see ya later. Have a good one" means, maybe you will see him. Whereas, "OK Kenji. I gotta go. Will you be here tomorrow? I'll see you then" means, I like you and next time we can become friends.

Never say:
Will you be my friend? ("Can I add you a friend?" is OK)
I want to practice my English. (I hate that one. I feel like a robot.)
Can I see you again? (Might be ok...but not really with an English teacher)

When saying goodbye it's best to say:
It was nice meeting you.
I hope to see you again.
Have a good morning/day/evening/night.
See you again.
Take care.
Have a good one. (guys)

Don't be too aggressive. Take your time. Slowly and surely you will find good friends that will last a lifetime.

HEY! Wait...I have an idea. Come to Cypris Chat and meet friends. LOL!
