Becoming friends with a single woman means meeting her needs as a person (not a body).

• You must know her well enough to understand what is going on in her life - good and bad.
• You let her know in simple, gentle ways that you sincerely care for her. You need to be careful at the beginning that this is not too overt. A smile or a little hug will do.
• You think enough of her to be tolerant - no matter what happens or how she reacts. You're not a fair-weather friend.
• You are in touch on a regular basis, perhaps once a week - maybe
• more, maybe less.
• You are a regular source of positive reinforcement. You notice improvements or successes.
• You naturally become a valuable part of her world over time. She will find herself calling you and depending on you.
