friendly
noun: a person of one kind (see more)
This person (e.g. Chris) is someone like this:
At many times when Chris is with someone else, if Chris doesn’t know this other person well, Chris does something like when someone thinks like this about another person (e.g. Julian):
“I feel something good towards Julian now. If I can do something good for Julian now, I want to do it.”
It is good if someone is like this.
"I'm always so glad to see Chrissy. She's such a friendly person."
"Jean is a friendly person once you get to know them."
"If you are too friendly, people will take advantage of you and try to make you do things that you don't need to do."
