It's been more than 6yrs since i noticed such stuff from her and she always gets on my nerves without a word ,what do i do? I simply keep silent trying to ignore her torture but oh there comes some sharp annoying noise or gesture. Now i suffer from depression (sadly i am only 20 yrs old and i suffer from psychological erectyle dysfunction) I have even tried to explain this to my psychologist but in vain , since you people are aware of this topic i would like to know how to deal with it.

However, when communicating with people from other cultures, you have to be more careful. Eye contact can be considered rude in some Asian countries, anything but stiffness would be disrespectful when addressed by military officials while on duty, and various countries find the OK hand gesture not to mean OK, but either, "you're an asshole," or, "I'm going to kill you." Unless one's prone to travel, this shouldn't be a problem, but it's something to note. For the most part, all of this is true.

The truth is, the reason I can write about these problems is because I deal with them myself. The fact you know that there is room for improvement is a great sign. Over-analyzing has been a problem of mine as well. I'd suggest that when you find yourself over-thinking, reel yourself in and take action instead. When you think about something it's possible to keep thinking forever without making any progress. The key to learning and evolving and trial and error through action. As far as bad body language goes, I think the biggest factor is comfort. If you aren't comfortable it always comes through in body language. Again, the best way to get comfortable is experience, so practice throwing yourself into tough situations. It isn't easy, but the more you do it the better it feels. Ryan,

I really like it so far and I'm sorry to say that I am probably the perfect poster boy for alot of the problems you discuss. I definitly do alot of the things you listed above. My problem however is that I recognize when I am doing these things, but don't know how to bring myself out of it. Infact it seems the more I think about it, the worse it gets. I was just wondering if you had any suggested "replacments". Or some advice of how to get myself out of what seems like a loop from one bad body language to another. My friends say I over-analyze a lot of things and I agree. I don;t know how to fix the problem without thinking about it though, and I don't know how to think about it without overanalyzing it. HELP ME! Ryan Hi
