Best thing you could do for a new friend

I have this friend. Actually, we just met and I've been wondering what was best to be given to someone you recently met. I mean, yeah sure, we just met but I kind of appreciate her being with me. I have no interior motive on this since I just really want to be good friends with the person. But due to the fact that she is popular with the guys, I am quite limited since most of the people around me mistake it as hitting on her. Would it best that I just let our friendship go to waste? Or should I still pursue it despite the misunderstandings that could be attached to it? Or is there another way around?

Well just being a good, honest, and respective friend for her is already enough to show your sincerity for the friendship. Why should you care about what other people say and what your friends say about it? At the end of the day, do they know you better than you know yourself? No. They don't exactly know what you need and what you want. Just go ahead and be a friend of hers, if she's comfortable being friend with you too then that is all what matter. You don't really need to win someone's heart or friendship using material stuff Good luck.

If you are really sincere that what you want is pure friendship and you don't have any intentions at all other than this, then there's no need to worry about such things. You can just buy her something that she likes or something cute that she can appreciate and write a note that says thanks for the friendship. You can tell her your concerns too and be open about it. Tell her frankly that you like her only as a friend so that she won't misunderstood you too, because as you said she's popular with guys. If you don't want to be misunderstood then act just like a normal friend would and tell her openly about this.

You can continue having a good relationship with her. There is nothing wrong to be her friend and know her well. Some people will always have something to say,but what matters most is the relationship between her and you. As long as you enjoy her companionship and she also like you as a friend,then go on. have a great Sunday

I could say every people would really appreciate it if they were given a gift, even a simple one to treasure with. Even if you`re still friends just the thought perhaps that you consider her worthy to give a gift with would make her really happy. Just think of anything that would make her happy in a certain simple gift like perhaps a cd that she likes to listen a song with or a movie dvd that she might enjoy to watch.. Mery xmas..

Oh so you're talking about a gift for your friendship with her? Isnt it? Maybe you could do some scrapbooks or any other stuffs so you can show her how you value your friendship with her.

Best think you can do for a new friend is "sweet attitude". Show your positive manner, honesty,inner handsome. Let her know that you're exist and real, I mean like you say "Hey I'm the prince you've been looking for...or I'm the guy who will take care of you day and night (if she wants it).

I don't understand. If a person is my friend, I don't care what everyone else thinks. I stand by my friendship. Seems you care more about what people think than your new friend.
