Part 4/7:
Genuine Compliments: Rather than holding back positive thoughts, expressing genuine compliments can be a simple yet powerful step in building connections. Most people appreciate recognition; however, many often fail to verbalize their compliments.
Understanding Banter: Light, playful teasing, or banter, helps forge deeper bonds. It fosters an environment where friends can genuinely be themselves. This can be tricky, however, as it requires insight into what is considered humorous or teasing among different individuals—one must maintain a balance to ensure it's enjoyable for all parties involved.
