《How To: Survive Teenagehood》59/ 'Can't stand the silence. I need to speak to you.'

If you get the reference in the title I want to be your best friend and please message me asap.
This chapter is all about rekindling friendships which have be broken or died for whatever reason. We all have those friendships which have fallen to the sidelines in the past, and rekindling these friendships can be one of the greatest ideas ever. The same goes for broken friendships where you're maybe not speaking to the other person.
For friendships where you've both just drifted apart, the easiest way to rekindle these relationships is to send them a message. It's honestly as simple as this. Send them a message, and soon you'll find a conversation is flowing as fast as a waterfall.
For broken friendships, ones that have been broken by an argument you've had with that person, the best way to rekindle these friendships is to start with a clean slate. While we all like to think we're completely blameless in all situations, apologising for your role in the breakdown of the friendship (if you had one) is always the best foundation to rekindling the friendship. Just to take the courage to do that will begin to build a good foundation for a new friendship.
The key to rekindling friendships is to talk, but also to remember that it will be a gradual process.
So rule fifty nine of surviving Teenagehood: in a world out to get you, having another friend won't hurt.
