Things I Can Understand:

  • People who are naturally shy and struggle engaging with other people in social environments.
  • Keeping interaction to a minimum with people you don’t really like by being brisk, walking away, and not lingering around long.

Things I Really Find Rude:

  • Being with a group of people and singling out someone for conversation while alienating everyone else in the circle.
  • Making it very clear that you do not like someone, whether through body language or some passive-aggressive move — most especially if you’re sharing the same breathing space in a public area.
  • Saying hi to someone and totally ignoring the people they are with.
  • Talking in a group and always directing the conversation your way and casually dismissing other people’s two cents.
  • Neglecting to introduce people who don’t know each other when you find yourselves in a circle talking.
  • Not waiting for your turn to talk.
  • People who do not know how to apologize.

I really cannot stand being around people with horrible manners. It makes going out such a bother and it makes me understand why being out with people can be so draining. I can only hope that we all do our best to keep ourselves in check, myself included.
