Ask to Borrow Something

One way to make people feel more positive toward you is by asking them for small favors. This might sound counterintuitive, but it works due to a psychological phenomenon known as the Benjamin Franklin effect.

When someone does something for you, they subconsciously justify their actions by thinking they like you. So, the next time you’re trying to build a connection with someone, consider asking them to borrow a pen or help with a small task. Just don’t overdo it!
