Making New Friends In London
Author's Resource Box
If you have just moved to London, you may not find making new friends as easy as you'd like in the capital. Partly that is because, in a large, busy city with a somewhat transient population, people are wary of hooking up with new people. However, it is also partly to do with how you approach making new friends in London. That is something that you can easily change so you have more success in meeting people and making [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] them your friends.

Here are some ways to do that:
Making New Friends at Work or College
If you have [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] moved to London, it's likely that you've done so because of work or starting a college course. The work place or college offers you a good starting point for making [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] important part of your life before moving [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] to London, then joining a congregation in your new locality is a good way of making new friends. Visit a few religious institutions in your faith and see where you feel most comfortable.
When you discover the church, synagogue etc. that is right for you, visit regularly so your face gets known and people will talk to you and you will be able to recognize people to whom you want to talk. Also, get involved with other church activities such as lunches, fundraisers, fetes, etc. Don't wait to be invited to join in. Volunteer.
A good way of making new friends in churches is to sit beside a different person each time. Make small talk with them before the beginning of the service and get to know them a little bit. After church, you can exchange telephone numbers or emails and/or arrange to meet up some time later in the week. Set a definite time and [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] place for that. Soon, you will have made several friends.
Making New Friends with Your Neighbors

Let your new neighbors know that you are open to communication and possible friendship. Perhaps pop a nice card through their doors, explaining who you are (just your name, nothing too personal) and perhaps have a house-warming party.
When you see your neighbors, give them a smile and wave to them. Take everyday opportunities to exchange small talk with them. That can be as simple as asking them how they are when putting the bins out. If they ask you something, try to say something more interesting that one word answers but don't worry if your neighbor doesn't open up immediately. Perhaps they are busy. Just give it time and persist with the short and friendly conversations.
Take the Initiative
Having made small talk with people you meet in your daily life in London, don't sit back and expect them to do all [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the work. Ask for a Facebook connection, phone number or email address so you can arrange to meet up. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] Invite people out for coffee, shopping or the cinema.
Having spent some time making new friends with people in London, you will be able to judge which of these friendships you want to spend time with, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] so a deeper friendship can be developed.
