[quote=Anonymous]This is very interesting to me, as I am currently dating someone who is abrasive and considering dumping him for it. He claims he doesn't think his behavior is rude. Anyway, I think a lot of it is tone of voice. Try to speak in a pleasant tone. Don't snap. Smile. Make eye contact. Say please and thank you. When criticizing, try to couch it - "you did a great job on xyz project, so if you could, please make this one as high quality as that one." I also wonder if it is cultural. Are you from NYC or Boston etc?[/quote]
