I’m sure there are other groups that do it too, but I’ve noticed it most often
from christian apologists, probably in part case I like listening to
debates/discussions with them from atheist youtubers, but I’ve also noticed it
talking to christians myself. It always feels super weird to me, but that’s also
coming from someone who feels weird with eye contact and saying other peoples
names, so maybe it’s just me. Has anybody else noticed it, or are there other
people you’ve noticed that do that? Does it seem weird to you?
Speaking as a guy who often gets lost in a conversation and can’t think of what to do or say, personality mirroring is my goto. It makes conversations easy. Just copy them. Gotten positive results.
also, about the handshake. So you just hold the guy’s hand until he gets uncomfortable a pulls away? I haven’t tried that.
Repition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake.

It’s from an episode of The Office, and it only works in the short term for Andy Bernard.
