people for the first time is: don't talk
about something unless you know
exactly what you're talking about. But imagine that you did talk about
things you don't really know, you stated
false facts by mistake and suddenly this
guy you've just met started to correct
you in front of everybody mentioning
how mistaken you were!
Annoying, isn't it?!
Perhaps it wouldn't be this annoying if
you two were alone and he chose a nice
way to correct your mistakes; maybe
you would be even grateful but when
this happens in public it takes an immediate turn towards self image
disruption.
You know when you use to be the tallest
kid in your class then you get to meet a
basketball group and you start feeling
very short?! You didn't actually lose
height or something but you’re being
relatively short.
Also in a conversation; although it's fun
to have a rich conversation with a
knowledgeable person but when they
start to share too much knowledge it stops being just “sharing” and begins to
appear bragging; which might become a
little boring and embarrassing to some
people because when it comes to
culture nobody likes to feel "shorter"!
Beside that they need to talk to a real
person not a human encyclopedia!
It is not wise though to keep quite when
you have something interesting to say,
being moderate is the answer, being
moderate is the key to everything. First Impressions – How to win them all !ChapterXVI
