week of December 6-8 question 1

One of the most interesting concepts I found in the book is the subject of nonverbal communication. I find this fascinating due to the fact that you can tell if someone is mad or happy based on their stance. I find it fascinating about how you can read a situation without the other person saying a single thing. Due to this class I could tell if someone is mad at me. Characteristics of someone being mad and trying to identify these using nonverbal cues are easy for me now. When someone you love is mad at you they tend to use only one word answers. For example when you ask how they are doing, they say “fine”. If you say that you love them, they say “ok’. But also you learn to read the whole situation instead of going with your gut. If you think that someone is mad, you must first ask what the weather is. It might be cold and the other person is cold, but they don’t want to say anything.
