Nice one OP.

Also, if you invite a lady for a date, kindly pay the bills, dont expect her to share the bills with you. If you're broke just dey your dey, to impress no be by force.

1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to;

2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.

3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner.

4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ Or why don't you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem;

5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public
6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try paying next time;

7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what's 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, second opinion is good for an alternative;

8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all;

9. If you tease someone, and they don’t seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows how appreciative you're;

10. Say “thank you” when someone is helping you.

11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately;

12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s weight. Just say, “You look fantastic.” If they want to talk about losing weight, they will;

13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t swipe left or right. You never know what’s next;

14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors' appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say "I hope you’re okay". Don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness. If they want you to know, they'll do so without your inquisitiveness;

15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect as the CEO. Nobody is impressed at how rude you can treat someone below you but people will notice if you treat them with respect;

16. If a person is speaking directly to you, staring at your phone is rude;

17. Never give advice until you’re asked;

18. When meeting someone after a long time, unless they want to talk about it, don’t ask them their age and salary;

19. Mind your business unless anything involves you directly - just stay out of it;

20. Remove your sunglasses if you are talking to anyone in the street. It is a sign of respect. Moreso, eye contact is as important as your speech; and

21. Never talk about your riches in the midst of the poor. Similarly, don't talk about your children in the midst of the barren.

22.After reading a good message try to say "Thanks for the message".

APPRECIATION remains the easiest way of getting what you don't have....

Let me add this one, we know you love your freepods but remove them temporarily when talking to people.

I will definitely break all these rules this week. Rules are meant for cowards. there is no good or bad, there is only circumstances.

I don't know why people think they can make social rules... Circumstances vary, situations vary. What walks for you may not walk for me. No two social beings are exactly identical in all ramifications. Do what suits you; what walks for you.

But there are some social rules that are universal in that they work in all situations and circumstances like numbers 2, 7 and 10.

Is your comment based on personal experience?

What if a lady initiate or do the invitation? Are you pondering what I am pondering? wink

I wish my bf can understand no. 1. I've never understood why you will give someone 8 missed calls when nobody is dying. Funny thing is if I call once and you don't pick, that's it for me. He claimed that calling only once shows that I don't care enough to talk to him if not i'd have called repeatedly. The matter tire me.

Don't tell anyone how much you buy this, because people judge between original and fake by their prices.
E. g. "Kola, how much do you buy this shoe?"
" I bought it 5k at Yaba."
The next thing you will hear is, "It is fake!"
