Thinking of reaching out to old friends but nervous that they won't appreciate it? You should make those phone calls or send a text or email, according to new research. The study found that people often underestimate how much their friends appreciate hearing from them. "If there's been someone that you've been hesitating to reach out to, you should go ahead and reach out," Peggy Liu, associate professor of business administration at the University of Pittsburgh's Katz Graduate School of Business. Recipients appreciated the communication more when it was surprising, like from someone they didn't regularly contact. "When you feel that sense of positive surprise, it really further boosts the appreciation you feel," Peggy Liu, associate professor of business administration at the University of Pittsburgh's Katz Graduate School of Business. Relationships can be one of the strongest predictors of how healthy we are and can boost our overall well-being. "Those types of small reach outs can go a long way toward strengthening relationships early on and maintaining them over time," Miriam Kirmayer, clinical psychologist and friendship expert.
