So You Want to Be Minecraft BFFs? A Totally Not-Serious Guide to Getting Friend Requested ⛏️❤️
Ah, Minecraft. A world of endless possibilities, from building your dream castle to battling creepers that look suspiciously like mutated avocados. But let's face it, even the most epic diamond haul gets lonely after a while. You need a buddy to share your pickaxe with (or, more likely, borrow theirs when you inevitably lose yours in a lava pit... no judgement here).
The question is: how do you get someone to send that magical friend request? Fear not, fellow Minecraftian! This totally-not-a-desperation-guide will equip you with the knowledge (and questionable tactics) to become a friend request magnet.
Tip: Revisit challenging parts.

| How To Get A Friend Request On Minecraft |
Step 1: Become Impossibly Awesome (or at least pretend to be)
A. The Architectural Marvel
Tip: Break long posts into short reading sessions.
- Build a giant pixel art version of your friend's favorite meme. They'll either be impressed by your artistic skills or deeply disturbed by the sheer amount of time you have on your hands. Either way, it'll get their attention.
- Craft a floating obsidian palace in the sky. Nothing says "potential BFF" like a healthy dose of architectural intimidation.
B. The Master Combatant
QuickTip: Absorb ideas one at a time.
- Slay the Ender Dragon while blindfolded (with a friend... maybe). Okay, maybe don't actually do this. But bragging about almost doing it definitely works.
- Run around with a full inventory of enchanted diamond armor. Because who doesn't want to be friends with a walking disco ball of death?
C. The Helpful Minecraftian
Tip: Skim only after you’ve read fully once.

- Leave a chest full of diamonds and a note that says "You seem cool" at their doorstep. This tactic is a gamble, but hey, free diamonds are free diamonds.
- Build them a fully-automated potion brewery. Who needs friends when you have an endless supply of healing potions? (Okay, maybe still get some friends).
Important Note: If none of these work, it's perfectly acceptable to bribe them with diamonds. Everyone loves diamonds.
Step 2: Embrace the Art of Subtlety (optional)
- Leave a trail of breadcrumbs leading to your epic base. Just make sure they're not actual breadcrumbs, because those attract creepers. Nobody wants creeper friends.
- Casually mention your username in every conversation you have. Subliminal messaging is a powerful tool, or at least it is in cheesy spy movies.
Step 3: Operation: Desperation Time (use with caution)
- Accidentally fall off a cliff next to them and spam the "Help!" button.** There's nothing that builds camaraderie quite like shared misfortune (and a mild concussion).
- Get kidnapped by a group of pillagers and live-stream your escape attempt. This is a very niche strategy, but hey, if it works...
Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any injuries, creeper attacks, or existential dread caused by following these tactics.
In all seriousness, the best way to make friends in Minecraft is to be yourself, have fun, and maybe offer to help them out with a project. But hey, if building a giant creeper statue with a neon sign that says "Be My Friend" speaks to your soul, then who am I to judge?
