English for Friendship. This article features dictionary look up". Just double click on any word to get an instant definition (uses a pop-up). Finding Friends Online. How to meet people online. Now, I'm presuming that you want the opportunity to find people to chat with to help improve your spoken English (or any other language). If you are looking for "other reasons" you might want to move along now, if not, please stay and continue reading. There are so many opportunties for (virtually) meeting people online now, and it's nice, in fact it's wonderful, but it can be a bit overwhelming. Don't expect too much from people who friend you back, or add you to their contacts or circles. The best way to get unfriended or blocked is to jump in with two great big over enthusiastic feet and start demanding 1:1 attention. Being in someone's contact list does not mean they want to talk with you night and day, whenever you feel like it. Often it just means they are looking for "followers", to some it's like a numbers game, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, with all these people looking for "followers" surely you can use it to your advantage. Well yes you can, but softly, gently. Don't ask extremely personal questions or reveal personal information about yourself that might make the other person uncomfortable. If this person is the right chat partner for you, there will be plenty of time for this later. Social networking sites are just that - social and networked. Nowadays people have Twitter accounts, Facebook accounts, Google plus accounts, MySpace and Yuku accounts, etc. This gives you the ability to build a relationship based on mutual interests, but first you have to spark their interest. Your first stop should be your profile - enter a photo or at least some image, put in your interests "learning English is a good start", maybe the music you like, books you read etc., and then go to their posts / their wall / their stream and read them, then if you agree with their ideas (it's much easier to develop a friendship if you can at least agree on most things) leave some positve comments on their photos / their jokes / their articles. If you get a response, tell them a bit about yourself, and ask them a bit about themselves, not just ASL and not their life story (there are other kinds of sites for that sort of thing). You may find that they run sessions on their preferred subject, if it interests you, ask to join in. That way you'll get to meet even more people, and once you have engaged their interest (and you'll only do that by being interested in them and by being interesting yourself), you can start developing a conversation. Again, don't be over enthusiastic and suggest a full on video session (that's just creepy), maybe suggest a group chat in text or voice, or hangout in G+, there's strength in numbers and meeting in groups means the conversation will just keep going even if someone has to leave. Above all be respectful, and if someone is unable to talk, don't keep bugging them. If someone is marked as "busy" accept that, especially with the different time zones around the world and the fact that a lot of us are just very, very busy. You could leave them a note to say "Wow! You're always so busy!" and see what happens. The other way around this is the "be interesting yourself" advice. Make the mountain come to you. Start collecting a few people of your own, initiate interesting conversations, and before you know it, they will be asking to chat with you. !Note - I wrote this piece after reading the following post in Google Plus:- "Well that was new - some person from India just messaged me with an impertinent 'I want to see you'. I looked at his profile - no photo of him, he had never interacted with me at all on G+. I said no. He says 'why?' Claims to be new to G-Plus - I am sure he was in a shared teachers circle from weeks ago. (when i was too busy to check all the shared contacts) end result - first blocked G+ user. the cheek.
