him and chatting, however if my body was not facing towards hom this suggest that I am not really
interested. Also if when sitting down chatting to a person if they are leaning back this can send the
message that they are either relaxed or bored, however if they are leaning forward this implies that they
are interested.

may suggest that you are angry. However if you talk in a slow calm voice then this shows that you are
rather being friendly.

to say. For example when trying to communicate but speech is not possible people use hand gestures. The

(closed fist held with the thumb extended upward) and the not okay (closed fist held with the thumb

angry, happy ,surprised scared etc. For instance, if someone’s facial expression was a big smile
and wide eyes this may suggest that they are happy.

between two can make a person uncomfortable .For example if wanted to talk to..and the space
between them was 1 finger away from each other and its someone you aren’t close to then the
person may feel very uncomfortable and may not be listening probably or is not giving the right
responses back or even too much of a distance can lead to misunderstanding.

communicating and mixed messages may be received.
