These are all great tips. Also love your look in this video!
In Nigeria I didn’t think twice about making friends, I was in boarding school it just happened naturally. I’m still great friends with all my friends there and my best friend.
Here, I’m around many Americans and while I do hang out with them occasionallyI still don’t consider them my friends. I can’t tell them personal stuff about myself because idk I can’t relate to them and vice versa.
Do you feel like you’ve built a solid community of friends since you moved here? I feel like if I was around Nigerians my age range this really wouldn’t be an issue.
I think I’m getting to the point where I just won’t try anymore lol. It’s not by force, just looking to see if maybe it’s just me that’s struggling.
Hello Funmi,
Thank you for sharing! I also have a similar experience finding it difficult to share so much with my American friends due to different cultural values.
However, I have realized that the diversity does make a difference in our interactions, because there’s so much for us to share and learn from our individual experiences.
I still have my Nigerian friends too that support me the way I desire in our Nigerian kind of way.
Overall, I am still navigating this friendship thingy in America because it’s clear that the lifestyle and mindset here is mostly individualistic but one can still experience and enjoy the joys of true friendship!
