How to make friends with people from a different culture The rules are as follows Appreciate the Person Most Americans like to be recognized as individuals as someone special with unique personalities Therefore never say You re from America so I want to be your friend Also don t imply that the reason why you approached them is that you wanted someone to practice your English with That turns people off Instead try saying You seem like a real nice and interesting person and I would like to get to know you better This way they are much more inclined to be friendly because you see them as a three dimensional person and appreciate them for who they are in the inside And by doing so you not only learn about Americans and practice 3 your English but also gain a real friend in the process Quit
