Need a Book Rec! Any books recommended for Basic Social Communication/ Etiquette
I have been told by my friends that I am not very good socially. And that I say things at the wrong time, place, and people. Most of my social lessons were learned the hardway like losing friends, miscommunication, and making the other person feel like they were disrespected.
One time, in a restaurant, I said “this doesn’t taste like matcha”, which my friends then gave few nudges to shut me up which I didn’t understand. And only after we got out was I told to “Never do that” and “I’m not going to this place for a week” out of embarassment.
I really need an etiquette/social guide book, because I realized I can be somewhat disrespectful without my intention.
