Tips for improving your social biome
From the moment you don't see a friend with the frequency you used to, the friendship's quality starts to decline.
- Don't forget about Zoom. Continue to wave awkwardly on video calls when you can only communicate online.
- Invite people to things. Invite people you don't know well but would like to know better to coffee, a party, or a gallery.
- Climb the ladder of communication. The lowest rung is browsing social media, then direct messaging a group, then a direct message to people you want to keep in touch with, then phone calls and video chat, and the top rung is face-to-face conversation.
