We should remember the birthday of our friends. We should be the first to congratulate them on the telephone. We should send Birthday Greeting cards to them. On festivals also we should send greeting cards to them. We must give them birthday presents. At the time of need, we should help them. We must solve their problems. We should share their sorrows. We must invite them occasionally to our place. We should accompany them to the cinema. We should praise their dress. We should not discuss their faults. On the other hand, we should accentuate their virtues. Everyone likes flattery. We should flatter them whenever the occasion demands. We should never insult them in others' presence. But if they err, we should point out to them in private. We can win them by helping them in studies. We should befriend their relatives also. We should display our concern about them. We must enquire about things happening at their place. In short we should try to win their confidence.
