Essential social rules for respectful living
Stop joking if the other person isn't enjoying it. Never repeat humor that causes discomfort.
Avoid personal questions about marriage, children, or employment that may cause embarrassment.
Limit social media posts about luxury items, fine dining, or travels to avoid irritating others.
Take turns paying bills when dining with friends or colleagues to maintain balance.
Never comment negatively on someone's appearance, weight, or skin tone.
When shown specific media on someone's phone, don't browse through their gallery without permission.
Don't call more than twice consecutively. Unanswered calls mean the person is busy or unavailable.
Respect privacy by looking away when someone enters their password.
Avoid asking about salaries or business finances as it creates discomfort.
Give full attention during conversations by avoiding phone use.
Always express gratitude and properly acknowledge help received from others.
Respect all religious beliefs and avoid posting derogatory content online.
Don't interfere in personal matters or offer unsolicited advice.
Repay borrowed money promptly, even if the lender doesn't remind you.
"Good manners cost nothing, but they mean everything in building meaningful relationships."
