If you’re feeling lonely, frustrated, and ready to have a new friend group then you’ve come to the right place.
Affirmations for friends are the best way to attract more and better friends into your life!
They’re free, easy to use, and can be used anywhere. If you don’t know how to use affirmations or are new to this whole thing, don’t worry I got you.
In this article I will be breaking down how to use affirmations for friends, other ways to attract better friends, and of course, the best friendship affirmations to attract better friends.
So sit back, get comfortable, and let’s get started.

What Are Affirmations?
Before we get into the best affirmations for friends, I first want to explain what affirmations are.
To affirm something means to state something as true or a fact, so affirmations are statements you are saying are true or are a fact.
You can, and probably already do, use affirmations every single day. For example, these are all examples of affirmations:
- This restaurant has the best pasta.
- I am the best at what I do.
- This is the best brand for laundry detergent.
These are also examples of affirmations:
- I am extraordinary.
- I am 100% capable of making my dreams come true.
- I am gifted, talented, and strong.
Not all affirmations have to be “I am” statements, and not all affirmations are positive either.
However, in this instance, we want to use positive affirmations for friendship to attract better things into our lives.

How To Use Affirmations For Friends
So now that we know what affirmations are and if they truly work, I want to discuss how to use affirmations for friends.
If you’re familiar with how to use affirmations, and you’re just looking for some fresh affirmations then feel free to skip ahead.
But for those of you that are new (welcome!) I wanted to share how to properly use affirmations because there are a few misconceptions out there.
1. Say Your Affirmation For Friendship Out Loud
The first thing you want to do when you’re doing your affirmations for friends, is you want to say them out loud.
According to improvedge, saying things out loud can help create a more powerful neural pathway and commit the information to memory better.
Some people will suggest you say your affirmations in the mirror, but it’s not a must.
I say my affirmations any and everywhere.
As long as you’re saying them out loud, and being consistent (more on this in the next point) then that’s all that matters.
You can also choose to write your affirmations down, but I’ve found that saying them out loud is the overall best way to do it.
If you’re new to using affirmations then you may feel a bit silly when you first do this. When I started affirmations for the first time I felt absolutely silly, and it is quite alright.
If you have to, think about it like you’re just saying your normal thoughts out loud.
We all talk to ourselves, even if other people won’t admit it, so think of it as a positive statement that you’re saying out loud.
Because honestly, that’s all affirmations are. Positive statements that are intended to bring a positive change into your life.

2. Use Affirmations For Friends Daily
The next thing you want to do when using your affirmations for friends is to use them daily.
Much like anything else, in order for you to see the best results, you want to use them regularly and consistently.
Once a day is optimal.
I typically say my affirmations in the morning when I first wake up because it helps me get my day started on a positive note and gets me into a good headspace.
However, you can use affirmations at any time of the day.
If you want to use them at night you can, if you want to use them throughout the day you can, if you want to use them while you’re using the loo then that works too.
Just make sure you’re using them consistently.
3. Trust The Process
Listen, sometimes you can do every single thing right and still get the results that you weren’t looking for.
It happens sometimes, and it happens to all of us.
This is where you have to trust the process. I’m not saying that you won’t attract the friends that you want. I’m also not saying that these positive friendship affirmations won’t work.
What I am saying is that you have to trust the process.
If it’s taking longer than you expect, it’s okay.
If you wound up still running across a crappy person in disguise, it’s okay.
Stay on the course, no matter what. Remain realistically optimistic and know that you are doing your best to create a change in your life one day at a time.

4. Check Yourself
The last step you want to do to be successful with your affirmations for friends is to check yourself.
What do I mean by that?
You want to make sure that you are the very thing that you’re saying you want to attract.
You attract what you are, not what you think you are.
So if you want to attract caring, compassionate, positive, etc friends into your life then you yourself need to be caring, compassionate, positive, etc.
You can’t expect to attract these amazing people in your life when you are treating the people who are in your life right now like crap.
Make sure you’re not only keeping check of how others are treating you but also how you’re also treating others.

Other Ways To Attract Better Friends
While using affirmations for friends can be very beneficial, there are also other ways to attract better friends in your life.
In this section, I will go over 5 additional ways to get better and more friends into your life.
1. Put Yourself Out There
One of the best ways to attract good friends (besides using affirmations for friendship) is to simply put yourself out there.
Sometimes it’s the simplest solution that can get you the results that you’re looking for.
Don’t overcomplicate this either. Putting yourself out there can look like:
- Going to a different coffee shop
- Talking to one random stranger a day (please don’t go anywhere with a stranger just stick to talking in the beginning)
- Going to a space where you can do your favorite hobby (the library, art gallery, car show, etc)
Put yourself out there and talk to people. Don’t be scared.
The worst someone is going to do is ignore you, which I know can be a bit discouraging and hurtful but hey, it’s okay.
We’ve all ignored people before (even if you didn’t think you have, you have) and maybe that person was having a bad day and just couldn’t deal with talking to anyone at the time.
It’s not personal.
Plus, the more you put yourself out there and talk to people the easier it gets, and I tell you this from personal experience.
I used to get so nervous to talk to literally anyone. It felt like I had to do a presentation in front of the whole class every time I would talk to someone new.
I would overheat and even start sweating when I would talk to someone I didn’t know.
My glasses would also start to fog up, so I couldn’t even hide the fact that I was nervous. Just a hot mess.
But you know what? It doesn’t even matter. And you know why? Because I was trying.
I would rather have looked like a complete hot mess and met some people who were freaking awesome than to not talk to anyone and feel absolutely alone.
And because I kept trying, I eventually got better at it, which is how I know that you can too get better at this if this is something you’re struggling with.

2. Get Comfortable With Being Rejected
If you’re going to be trying to make new or more friends then another thing I highly recommend doing is getting comfortable with being rejected.
You will be rejected at some point in life.
It happens to everyone, but let me tell you something.
Rejection is redirection.
It’s God’s way of saying you know what this isn’t for you right now, or maybe not ever. Again, it’s okay.
Think of it as that person is just making it easier for you because:
- They’re making space for someone who is more aligned with you.
- They’re not wasting your time by being in your life and making it seem like they’re a real friend when they’re really not.
So get comfortable with possibly being rejected because it may happen and if it does then it’s whatever because you already prepared for that.
3. Be Your Authentic Self
Another way to attract some good friends into your life is to be your authentic self.
I know this can be really difficult to do if you’ve been burned before or even laughed at for being who you truly are, but I beg you from the bottom of my heart please do not let that change who you are.
If someone is judging you for being you, then all that means is that someone did that exact same thing to them at some point in their life and they didn’t know how to deal with it so they started doing it to other people.
Don’t let someone who can’t even be their authentic self make you do the same thing.
Being who you truly are will not only help you weed out the people who aren’t meant for you but it will also bring you closer to your purpose and passions in life.
This world is a ginormous place, and there is someone else out there who has the same
- Interests
- Humor
- Values
- Passions
As you.
Do not let some bumhole discourage you. Just let them continue being the bumhole they are, and you go do you, even if you have to do you alone for a little while.

4. Practice Gratitude
The best way to have more things to be grateful for is to start learning how to be grateful for the things you have right now.
In the morning, each morning, make a list of 3 things that you’re grateful for today and watch how much it will change your life.
Try to find 3 new things to be grateful for too, don’t just keep choosing the same old things.
Practicing gratitude can not only help you attract more friends into your life but it can also help you remain more open to opportunities to make more friends.
Don’t underestimate the power of gratitude.
5. Focus On What You Have Right Now
Speaking of gratitude, the last but not least way to attract more friends is to focus on the friends you have right now.
Even if you only have 1 friend, that is more than what a lot of people have. Even if you only have a pet as a friend, that is still something to be grateful for.
Could you imagine if you had lost the 1 friend you have in your corner now?
You would feel immensely grateful for them in hindsight, so why not take that same approach while they’re still here?
I know it may suck to not have the friends you want and I know it really sucks to feel lonely, but hear me when I say this.
You are NOT alone.
There is someone in your corner, there is someone looking out for you, and there is someone you can find a friend in.
It may not be right now, but right now is only a snapshot in time. Things can change in 6 months, 1 year, and even 2 years.
Right now is not permanent, but you do have to use what you have in this present moment.
So be thankful for what you have right now, while still striving to have better.
Do Affirmations Really Work?
100% affirmations really do work.
You attract what you are, and if you’re looking for a real change in your life, then you have to be the things that changes.
Whether you choose to change how you move, how you respond, or your daily habits, change must start from within.
One of the easiest ways to get that change jump-started (and keep the ball rolling) is by using affirmations.
Specifically, using affirmations that are “I am” statements. The more you use them, the more your mind will believe them to be true.
And if you’re wondering if there is a science behind the positive effects of speaking phrases out loud the answer is yes!
Research has shown that speaking phrases out loud can help calm you down, improve your focus, and provide a better sense of control over your life.
