Being well liked is what most people want in relationships. The benefits are obvious. You will get the help you need at the time you need it. People will give you information about new opportunities you didn’t know before. Above all, they willreallycare and love you.
But how could you get other people to like you? How could you become a well liked person? There is actually just one simple rule to follow:you should like other people before they like you. When people realize that you like them, it’s very likely that they will also like you.
Regarding this,I believe that there isone and just onemessage you need to deliver in your relationships. Delivering this message isthekey to strong relationships, and here it is:
You are important to me.
That’s it. No more, no less. Not “your money” nor “your knowledge”, but “you” - as a person - are important to me.Anything you should do in relationships stems from this message. There more you succeed in delivering this message, the more people will like you.
So here I’d like to share33 tips on how to deliver this message in your relationships. Consequently, these are also tips to become a well liked person. Here they are:
