COM 3404- Discussion Post 4
Even though certain non-verbal signals have been associated with courtship and romantic flirtation, we also know that similar behaviors occur when people are trying to communicate friendliness, interest, and playfulness. These quasi-courtship behaviors can lead to misunderstandings, and they remind us how important context is for interpreting nonverbal signals. The cluster of nonverbal behavior comprising immediacy or liking behavior can be usefully applied to a variety of situations in which one wants to signal positive responses to strangers and acquaintances. Immediacy occurs in established close relationships, too, but mainly when it is important to be clear about one’s feelings, when the relationship is threatened, or when a couple wants to communicate their closeness to outsiders. Otherwise, people in close relationships employ a more unique and varied nonverbal repertoire.
