In class 10, a friend who was in college at the time writes to me with an invitation to her birthday party. I agreed, but then asked who the guests would be. To which she replied that all her friends from college will be there (and there are no less than 20+ people).�
I knew that I would sit there like a hermit, because they have their own company, their own interests, etc. So I decided to try this trick.�
I call my friend and tell her to play along. I decided that I would introduce myself as a foreigner. My English at that time was at an extreme level, so it will not be difficult for me to maintain communication in a foreign language.�
I come to a party and immediately start talking in my “native” English. He introduced himself as an Australian who had moved to live in another country.�
And voila.�
4 hours from me just did not leave. The girls saw me off in a crowd, and I was satisfied that I was able to correct such a crime.�
By the way, that's why I have James Griffin instead of my real name.
The ability to listen and appropriate humor, your own culture and outlook, the ability to behave culturally in society and not distinguish yourself at the expense of others, professionalism, etc.
Well, the most important thing, I think, is to be positive. There must be some joy coming out. Positive, smiling people always attract people almost one hundred percent. This does not mean that you need to laugh every 5 minutes, you just need to be in a good mood and good mood.
Being able to listen and hear is equally important. That is, do not interrupt, and never pull any conversations exclusively “on yourself”.
I had one case.�
