16. Maintaining Friendships
Friendships are very special and can make us feel very happy. But they take a great deal of work to maintain!
Sometimes:
You will have other priorities and not see each other as much (e.g. you might have lots of school work or clubs you have to go to)
You will disagree and argue (e.g. what game to play or what music to listen to)
You will disappoint each other (e.g. if you forget to say happy birthday or play with someone else)
You might be jealous of what they have (e.g. if they have passed a test or if they get what you wanted for Christmas).

17. Maintaining Friendships
1. Make an effort
Spend time together
Call or text them
2. Show them you care
- Tell them how special they are to you
- Remember important dates (their birthday or times of loss)
3. Be understanding
If they make a mistake forgive them
If they let you down let it go and think about how they feel and are going through
4. If you make a mistake apologize
5. Encourage your friends to succeed even if you’re jealous
- Think about how you’d want them to treat you
