By analyzing other people's body language, tone of voice, and reaction time, you can easily find out if someone's actions or mere presence is irritating. UAportal has prepared 3 tips that will help you find out what you should pay attention to when communicating.

Pay attention to body language

If your interlocutor crosses their arms, avoids eye contact, shows a tense facial expression, often interrupts your speech, or responds with short, fragmentary phrases, this may be a sign that the person is annoyed by your presence or behavior.

Listen to the tone of voice

If you notice a change in tone, for example, if the person's voice has become more sarcastic or impatient, this may indicate that they are irritated. In addition, if a person starts speaking louder or in a sharper tone, it indicates dissatisfaction.

Watch your response time

Delayed responses or complete ignoring of messages or calls may indicate that the other person is not satisfied with your behavior.
