You didn't know about
Did you know how long it takes to become a close friend from the first time you meet someone? When you interact with people, do you often worry if they like you or not? Did you know that your relationship is a key part of your well-being?
On the surface, these questions may seem trivial. However, to demonstrate how important they are, here are interesting studies that I found that can help you improve your interactions with people, make friends, and build better relationships.
Actually, People Like You More Than You Think
We often worry about making a good first impression and thinking about whether people like us.

It turns out your worries may be unfounded.
