[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take a genuine interest. Listen. Ask questions about their family of origin, their friends, their work. Remember their favorite foods, activities, people, interests. My local ILs of 2 decades have never taken the time to ask me about myself, yet I could map their family trees, have heard all of their stories and could win a trivia game about them. They are entirely self focused and know nothing about me but think that we’re close. [/quote] Many people see questions about family as nosiness and casual comment on something can rub a nerve wrong way. [/quote]
