Chapter 1

By reading chapter one in "Close Encounters", I was able to have a better understanding that communication in general defines all interpersonal relationships. It explains that communicating with people is the only way to have meaningful and effective relationships. The chapter emphasises that the levels of relationships are determined by how well you communicate with another person. There are many different factors that alter a dyad such as what sex, age, race, and their marital status. These factors alone can alter communications between people.

Now look at this..Thats my boy Johnathan on the left and thats me on the right. We are good friends and all that so we just decided to discuss the book a little bit. That is normal for friends to do....right? Yeah it is but sometimes its hard to take him seriously....If you didn't notice, Johnathan is communicating to me that he is a Mets fan..No Bueno! The hat is showing me that he likes the Mets, without even announcing it orally.Immediately Im gonna have a grudge, baseball is my life and passion. So even though hes explaining aspects about the book to me.....(you cant really notice but im staring at the mets hat!) the entire time im just annoyed. That small piece of communication of him wearing that hat altered my feelings for him, which defines our relationship to be replaceable, or almost unwanted. Luckily...........I made that junk up but its still gets to the point. However, he is a mets fan and I am a yankee fan. It doesn't bother me at all actually....thats pretty much it for  now/ "I got blogz 4 days"--Stephen Candal
