There are certain behavioral traits that can instantly tell you everything about a person without even sharing two words with them.
The way they hold themselves, the frequency with which they smile, and how they interact with others could reveal everything you may need to know about them, particularly their manners
Outrageous as it may seem, even the most minute detail could be all it takes to expose an individual's manners or lack thereof.
Indeed, while some people might not realize that they are behaving in a rude or inappropriate manner, others might be more aware of it, but make no effort to improve their behavior.
No matter how much side-eye is being unleashed upon them.
