Imperative method finishing after next line of imperative method call LWC

Question

I am calling method in js like

this.myMethod();
var = true;

The method is defined else where in js file like

myMethod()
{
//calling Apex Method
}

but the issue is the var = true gets executed before completion of myMethod(). How can i make sure that next line executes only after execution of called method ?

Apex methods are called asynchronously. You need to wait for them to finish if that's your intent:

async method1() {
  await this.myMethod();
  this.someVar = true;
}

async myMethod() {
  return myApexMethod({params})
}
