In conversations with people I am sometimes surprised that they don't say what they mean - not realising that I have been having non-verbal contact with them!! This has only become evident to me in the last few months. I met a really nice man recently and on first introducing ourselves and looking into his eyes I thought "what is being said here is more than just introduction!" The non-verbal communication was very palpable. We have since become good friends and I mentioned this to him, jokingly saying that I could read his mind and he agreed with me (saying that he hoped I didn't read EVERYTHING he was thinking!! LOL!) Now that I know what it is, I will try and use this "skill" a lot more. Irene Richard
