valuable, and often alarmingly intimate,
information about who they are as soon
as we meet them. If we pay attention, we
can pick up on the major clues they’re
sending out through their body language,
their appearance, their lifestyle, their
actions, their interests, their words, how
they treat their dogs, the waitress,
themselves, etc. Some people let it all
hang out for everyone to see right away,
others let it seep out in little spurts: “I
love water skiing,” “I admire how
confident you are about your weight
problem,” “I just got out of prison,” etc.
With the exception of the sociopath or
the skilled pathological liar, the majority
of humanity gives us plenty to chew on
tuis.
