1
There are certain social rules and nobody teaches you because technically they're not rules.
2
Like nobody's gonna pull you aside until you're breaking them, but people will make their thoughts about you
3
or write you off before you've even had the chance to get to know them.
4
And I know some of you are gonna be like, well, I don't want to get to know them either then.
5
But girlfriend, this is not really how the world works.
6
And trust me, a lot of these are things I wish someone had told me
7
so I didn't have to look like an idiot.
8
And I hate the excuse, it wasn't my intention.
9
As if that dismisses the poor lack of thought.
10
So we're going to change that.
11
So I wrote down 10 of my social rules that I think every smart woman should know.
12
Some of these are going to sound so simple, but if you start paying attention, you'll realize how many people break them.
13
Hi muses.
14
Welcome back to the channel where the women who want everything learn to have their cake and eat it too.
15
I'm your host Nadine.
16
And today we are getting into the 10 unwritten social rules every smart woman should know.
17
Also, if you like conversations like this, make sure you're in my Inner Circle newsletter.
18
It's free.
19
I'll link it in the description box below.
20
And as always, we don't gatekeep, so let's step into it.
21
Rule number one, never make someone regret telling you something.
22
If someone tells you something vulnerable, embarrassing, private, or even just personal, don't make them regret giving you access to that information.
23
Don't bring it up in front of other people.
24
Don't turn it into a joke three weeks later.
25
Don't tell your boyfriend because he doesn't count.
26
He counts.
27
And most importantly, don't ever use it against them, even when you're angry, even when you are no longer friends.
28
And never put her in a position to try to out her either.
29
When someone gives you sensitive information, they're also giving you a bit of responsibility for how to handle it.
30
People remember who made them feel safe.
31
Rule number two, 2.
32
Know when to move on from a conversation topic.
33
I think one of the most underrated signs of social intelligence is knowing when to let something go.
34
I went to this networking meetup where this guy kept going back to a topic
35
because he was so worked up about it, but everyone else had moved on from it hours ago.
36
And it just got to a point where everyone was kind of annoyed and irritated.
37
It's kind of like when you have
38
that one uncle who won't shut up about politics at the family dinner and no one wants to talk to him anymore.
39
And the vibes are just kind of stale and awkward, but he doesn't get the memo.
40
Don't be that person.
41
Rule number three, protect people's dignity in public.
42
Your friend who says something wrong, you don't always need a corrector in front of everyone.
43
Your significant other is telling the story and gets a detail wrong.
44
Oh my God, that's not how it happened.
45
This is how it happened.
46
And you hijack the conversation girl what are you doing someone sneezes
47
and has snot running down their face sometimes the kindest thing you can do is to look away
48
and let them handle it there are people who will embarrass other people for a laugh
49
or expose something because it makes the story better
50
or publicly correct people because they need everyone to know
51
that they are right don't trade someone else's sensitivity for 10
52
seconds of social currency protect people in public handle problems in private.
53
Rule number four, never compete with someone else's good news.
54
Your friend says I got promoted and you go, oh my God, congratulations.
55
I'm actually up for a promotion too.
56
Let her have her moment.
57
Sometimes being a good friend means being able to let someone else be the main character
58
when it's time for them to shine.
59
Celebrate her, ask questions, be excited.
60
You don't lose anything by letting another woman have her moment.
61
Rule number five, no VIP access with people with GA tickets.
62
I honestly didn't really know what to call this one, but this is actually something I first learned with dating before I started applying it to all areas of my life.
63
And I love it.
64
There's this idea now that vulnerability automatically creates intimacy and it can, but vulnerability and intimacy are not the same thing.
65
You can tell someone your entire childhood trauma within 45 minutes of meeting them and still not actually know each other.
66
Real intimacy requires time, consistency, and reciprocal trust.
67
So the girl you've hung out with twice doesn't need to know the entire lore behind your last friendship breakup.
68
And someone you've been dating for three weeks doesn't need to know every insecurity or every shitty relationship you've been in.
69
People have to earn access to you over time.
70
Chemistry and familiarity is not trust.
71
Oversharing is not intimacy.
72
Rule number six, invitations are information.
73
This one might hurt some feelings, but pay attention to who invites you, who initiates with you, who includes you, and who reciprocates.
74
If you've asked someone to hang out three times and she said no every time without ever suggesting another date, that's a data point.
75
If you are always organizing the dinners, checking in, remembering birthdays, and keeping the entire your friendship alive.
76
that's a data point.
77
If someone is always having parties and get togethers that you only find out about after it happens, that's a data point.
78
But not all of these require confrontation.
79
Sometimes you just need to see clearly where you stand with them and then move on.
80
Rule number seven, never punish someone for saying no. If your friend says she can't come to dinner, just say, no worries girl next time.
81
Not wow okay I guess you're too busy for us now even
82
if you are joking okay because it's not a funny joke.
83
If someone doesn't want to drink stop asking them why.
84
If someone doesn't want to talk about something move on
85
because every time you punish someone for saying no you're telling them
86
that it's not okay for them to be real with you and that's exhausting.
87
Nothing kills a friendship faster.
88
So give people room to say no and you'll actually create more honest relationships.
89
Rule number eight, remember the little things.
90
This is probably the easiest social skill on this entire list.
91
Remember what people tell you.
92
If your friend tells you that her mom is having surgery next Tuesday, text her on Tuesday.
93
If your significant other has a huge presentation coming up, ask them how it went.
94
Friend is back from vacation, be excited and be ready to ask about their trip.
95
This sounds so basic, but think about how good it feels when someone remembers something that you mentioned weeks ago.
96
Because what's actually being communicated is I care about you.
97
I'm paying attention and I'm interested in being part of your life.
98
And if you have a terrible memory, just put it in your calendar.
99
Rule number nine, don't make people guess where they stand with you.
100
This is something I've come to appreciate more and more as I got older.
101
Give people compliments and be real with how you feel.
102
Tell people you appreciate them tell people if they did an amazing job
103
if you had a great time meeting someone tell them you had
104
so much fun with them something
105
that really changed my viewpoint is this quote i read a
106
while ago and it's give people their flowers
107
while they are still around to receive them but also
108
if you've grown apart from a friend learn to communicate
109
so you don't leave them hanging and confused too
110
and lastly rule number 10 your reputation enters the room before you do this is the rule
111
that defines where you sit in your social circles.
112
Your reputation is more than just what people think of you or your accomplishments.
113
It's your character and values.
114
And I think people forget that.
115
Do you show up?
116
Can you keep your word?
117
Do you celebrate other women?
118
Are you gracious when there's nothing to gain?
119
Do you talk poorly about every other friend?
120
Do you make people feel good about themselves?
121
Because people talk, not necessarily in some bad gossipy way, but think about how often we say things like, oh my God, I love her.
122
You guys would totally get along.
123
She's so sweet.
124
I think you should invite her.
125
That is your reputation working for you.
126
And the opposite happens too.
127
So if you think you need to do some damage control, instead of thinking about how to get more people to like you, think about what it's like being your friend,
128
what it's like getting to know you or work with you.
129
What do people experience when they interact with you?
130
Character determines whether people want you to stick around and that's all 10.
131
You just have to understand that the ways you treat people really do add up
132
and eventually how people feel in your presence becomes part of your reputation in your absence.
133
That's all the cake I have for you today.
134
Thank you so much for watching until the end.
135
I appreciate it so much and if you enjoyed our little chat today, please like, hype, and leave a comment to share your thoughts and I'll see you in the next episode.

什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
