Nonverbal communication is probably my favorite topic in our class since I love to read about ways to bring relationships with people to the next level. Acquaintances becoming friends then becoming best friends is a light at the end of the tunnel (in a good way, not death). The eight principles of nonverbal communication is the quality of the relationship is established, when we do or say something inconsistent nonverbal communication is more believable, nonverbal communication is more meaningful when our groups assign meaning to it, our interpretation of others are guided by context and power relationships, groups operate in the norms and expectations of a culture they are apart, our view of nonverbal cues lead to meaning, men and women have a difference in accuracy at getting nonverbal cues correct, and we can become better at interpreting other people's nonverbal cues if we improve our own actions and interpretations. As said earlier, I chose this topic because I love to read about ways to being relationships with people to the next level, bringing people together is always a nice feeling. Nonverbal communication is just one of the many important steps in developing a solid friendship or level of intimacy with others.
