Friendship Affirmations

Friendships are one of the most important and beautiful things in the world, with them we don’t feel so alone and have people we can trust our thoughts and feelings with and without them it can get quite isolating. Friendship affirmations can remind us of the importance of these relationships.

Because having friendships doesn’t mean it’s always smooth sailing. Building friendships often take a lot of time and work and putting your trust in someone isn’t always the easiest thing, especially when you’ve been hurt before and problems can arise from this putting a strain on your friendships.

There are thankfully things you can do to help yourself stay positive and help you remember the positive aspects of friendships.

Using friendship affirmations helps you to keep the things you value and want in focus to allow you to strengthen your current friendships and ensure your friendships last a lifetime.

It won’t be something that happens overnight, you’ll have to keep at it, but with practice and determination, you will definitely see results.

Why Are Friendship Affirmations Important?

We all need friends (see also ‘Positive Affirmations For Friends‘), it’s an inherent part of being a human to have a close circle of people we can rely on and trust.

It can be hard to allow yourself to put so much trust into another person when you’ve been burned before, but using affirmations allows you to nurture current friendships to let you focus on the positives about why having friends is so important and how it can improve your relationships and confidence in the long run. 

It’s the same for making friends (see also ‘Affirmations For Making Friends‘) too, sometimes it can be difficult to make friends, especially if you’re an introvert or just lack the confidence to strike up a conversation, you can also utilize these affirmations to help you gain confidence to build new friendships and get more comfortable starting conversations with people you don’t know.

Of course, having similar interests and hobbies usually makes it easier to make friends, but real bonding and friendship comes from time, effort and attitude which will allow friendships to blossom quickly and deeply.

When you start repeating these affirmations daily, you’ll start to see a change in your attitude and an improvement in your mood overall, and most importantly you’ll start to see a positive change in your friendships that stand the test of time.
