This week my group members and I were looking at how shy, non-communicative people react. These types of people usually have difficulty in the areas of nonverbal interaction. For example, they don't know how to read body language and they have problems finding the interpersonal boundaries between other people. Shy people also don't show interest in other people which makes talking to other people hard for them. Empathy is another big part of social interactions, because it shows that you really care about others and their feelings. For example, when one of their friends is crying they have the empathy to go ask whats bothering them, or when someone is smiling it also makes them want to smile. For this reason, shy people and others like them have trouble empathizing with others, this problem is what we will be focusing on for our 20% project. This is why we are doing weird things to people to show shy people why it is important to socially interact and have fun with some friends.
