A mistake a lot of us make is rushing into a friendship without knowing enough about the other person. You can’t tell if that person will be a good friend in a short amount of time, especially by letting them in too quickly.
First, become acquaintances. It’s so much easier to observe people you aren’t emotionally attached to yet. You don’t want to befriend them yet, but rather become familiar with them. Think of it as dating. You can go out on a date to get to know someone before being in a relationship with them.
