How to Apply This
-
Start expressing your feelings with them and ask them personal questions.
As when people become friends, they often express their feelings to each other.
For example, “George, I just love these sunny days.” and for a personal question, “How about you, Betty? Are you a sunny person?” -
Use words like “we”, “us”, and “our” in the conversation.
Create the sensation of intimacy with someone even if you’ve met just moments before, by using these magic words. -
Search for some special moments you shared during your first encounter and find a few words that reprieve the laugh, the warm smile, the good feelings the two of you felt. Now, just like old friends, you have an instant history together or a private joke.
