Jessica and Joyce were best friends in junior grade three. They did almost everything together. Then one day, after a misunderstanding(误解),Joyce stopped talking to Jessica. For more than three months, Joyce refused to talk to Jessica or answer her notes. “During that time, I found out what an important friend she was,” Jessica says, “ I couldn’t even give all my attention to my study, I just thought about how to heal(修复) our friendship. ”
The next term, Jessica tried again. This time,Joyce was also happy to work it out. It took some time and hard work, but the friendship was healed.
Most of us have suffered the pain of broken friendships. But the good news is that most friendships can be healed.
Oxford professor Michael Argyle recently finished a 15 - year study that found out what makes people happy. What did he find? The key to happiness is having one close relationship and network of friends. Other studies show that our social connections make us healthier. Keeping healthy friendship is worth the hard work!
If there’s broken friendship you'd like to heal, try the following advice:
Try to see things from your friend' s point of view.
Talk about the problems openly but kindly.
At first, Jessica didn't understand why Joyce slopped talking to her. Then Joyce finally explained that Jessica’s trick made her upset. “I finally found out she was angry because I made fun of her in front of the boys in our class. " Jessica explained. Jessica meant nothing by her trick and thought it shouldn’t make Joyce upset. But when she realized that it was embarrassing(令人 难堪的)to Joyce, she slopped. Then their friendship could heal.
