2. Don't go alone if you don't have to In many situations, it is perfectly reasonable for you to take a friend with you, unless it is something like a job interview or a professional meeting. Having a friend by your side can help because when things get difficult they can boost your confidence with a few words and maybe even just a smile. The very fact that they are your friend and wanted to go with you to support you should make you feel better. It shows that you have good qualities that people like about you.
