How Can I Become A Nicer Person?

Question

I've been trying to be a really nice person but I'm not sure how to do so. Most of the people who go to my school or live around here are all the same; they're stuck up and rude. I'm a guy and I'm 14 years old I'm just not sure how to come across being nice. I don't swear so that's not a problem. What should I do? The jokes my friends make are rude and stuff to and I don't know how to respond to them. If someone calls me a name how can I respond by being nice?

Answer 1

give helpful advice to your friends. Be friendly, agree to whatever your friends say and respect is the most important  

Answer 2

If someone calls you a name...do not bite back...in fact smile at them and ignore it...it makes you appear a lot more mature and a bigger person. Also, don't fall into the trap of bein mean to the kids that dont matter e.g. uglies or fatties. Compliment people (realistically) if someone asks you a question, give them more than a one word answer...answer them with a sentence...also, if you know someone who is really nice, study them and see what they do that makes them nice.

gd luck

Answer 5

Do something nice for someone. Dont make fun of people and try to make a friend who is nice. Its not hard being nice. Im problly the nicest person youll met. Its easy just dont be rude and dont swear and dont tell mean jokes tell funny random ones. if someone calls you a name ignore them or say like at least im not stuck up or something like that or say well id rather be *whatever they call you* than a *what ever they are to you* with out getting mad or swearing. You can get mad just keep it to yourself and walk away.

Answer 6

haha you can;t always respond by being nice, just don;t swear....u can't change yourself because youll always try to go back to normal. Do what you think is right. If you dont like who your friends are then maybe you should think about weather they really are your friends. You shouldnt have to change yourself to fit in with them, be yourself and also find friends who you can be yourself with and be confertable.

Answer 7

the golden rule, treat others how you would want to be treated. Also, imagine how your current behavior would make someone else feel. when you can empathize, then you begin to act differently because you are now thinking about the feelings of other people. Also think about how you would want someone to treat a family member or your best friend. act in a way that you would want them to be treated.

Answer 8
