The biggest problem every human being face is the ability to understand
another human being!
We tend to think a lot of things before actually hanging out with someone.
Each one us have our own trust issues, we find it so hard to randomly
mingle with someone, to talk to them, to hangout with them, and above all,
befriend them!
People find it really hard to find someone to hangout with, who is like them.
Except that, it’s not. Believe it, even minor things like a handshake, or
whether or not we bite our nails speaks volumes and definitely do say a lot
about us.
1. Your Handshake
In fact, a lot of people have actually confessed that they judge other people
based on their handshake.
based on their handshake.
It was written by Julian Parge that, strong handshakes usually reflect a
strong and confident character, whereas weak handshakes usually indicate
lack of confidence and are almost always a characteristic of people who
always have looked for an easy way in order to do things.
According to research studies, it was said that your handshake definitely
defines a few aspects of your personality. In a study conducted, it has been
revealed that firm handshakes are those from the extroverts and
emotionally expressive people.
2. Whether You Make Eye Contact or Not
On conducting a research, it was demonstrated that people tend to reduce
eye contact when talking about something embarrassing. In addition, people
also tend to reduce eye contact when they are having an inner flow of
thoughts or emotions.
Also, making frequent eye contact with your partner more will make yourself
look confident and socially dominant (well, here’s a tip you could try in order
to make your bond stronger with your partner).
3. The Clothes You Wear
You always tend to choose proper clothes and make sure that you look
perfect during occasions like crowd gathering, interviews, festival, and many
more, have you asked yourself why?
Well, that’s because, with or without your knowledge, your inner gut feeling
has always told you that dressing is something that defines you!
Whenever you dress up in a certain way, it helps shift you internally. That’s
the exact reason why actors do make-overs and say that putting on a
costume facilitates expression of character.
If you have always found yourself dressed up in work clothes, that defines
you as someone who values primarily through work and work-related
accomplishments.
you as someone who values primarily through work and work-related
accomplishments.
Lastly, if you find yourself as someone who wears only neutrals, it means
that you are stuck in a rut and that, you are too afraid to draw attention to
yourself.
4. Your Handwriting
The Graphologists have suggested that you can tell a lot about someone
from their handwriting. From the letter size of your writing to how closely
you space words, everything can expose tiny details about your personality.
If your handwriting is tiny, you are a timid person. If your handwriting is
large, you have an outgoing personality. If you space your words wisely, you
are fond of freedom and independence. Lastly, if you write in a small space,
then you hate being alone (so, what do you come under?)
5. The Way You Argue
It has been demonstrated that, habitual argument makers or the ones who
argue out of habit, usually are said to have narcissistic tendencies. They are
portrayed as someone who like blaming others.
On the other hand, if you are a debater, then that’s cause you tend to pick
your arguments wisely.
6. Whether You Are Punctual or Not
An organized or a self-motivated person is someone who will always be on
time. Whereas, if you are a procrastinator, you will find yourself running
around here and there till the very last moment.
7. How Often You Check Your Phone
According to some studies, it is revealed that, if you end up constantly
checking your phone or refreshing your news feed, you are probably
emotionally unstable and hence, you end up trying to pep your mood.
8. Your Favorite Genre of Books
Depending upon the genre of books you like, your personality speaks a lot
about you. Books always tend to shape the readers, and it’s very normal to
learn something from the characters you read irrespective of whether they
are good or bad.
If you love reading classics, then, in that case, you prefer to get to know a
person deeply rather than knowing them only on the surface. If you like
reading fantasy books, then you must be a day dreamer and you tend to
zone out any hour of the day.
While those you love reading horror books, those are the kind of people who
are looking for a constant adrenaline rush and are ready to take on
adventure.
9. Where Do You Look When You Are Drinking Out of a Cup?
This sounds amusing, isn’t it? Where do you look while drinking out of a cup
speaks a lot about you!
According to psychology, it is suggested that, someone who looks at the cup
when drinking, mostly is someone who introspects a lot, who is self aware,
focused and idealistic.
focused and idealistic.
While someone who looks over the rim of the cup while drinking, is someone
who gets influenced easily, environmentally aware, extroverted and
carefree.
While a person is said to be in pain or discomfort and is said to be
preoccupied with pleasure and relief if the person closes their eye while
drinking!
10. Based on ‘Please’ and ‘Thank You'
Last but not the least, politeness forms an important part of your personality
and defines you! You know that you have been a socially intelligent person if
you say ‘please' and ‘thank you’ often, keeping in mind, the basic level of
politeness.
