I heard that yawning is infectious. If someone near u yanws, then most probably, u too are going to join the party! I am not sure about it though. So, I just wanted to confirm! So, What has been your experince - do you identify with this theory? Be careful to observe next time!

Absolutel. I even catch yawns from my cats! Oh- and I have tested it on them. When I yawn, they catch my yawn, too! :) And just talking about yawning is making me want to yawn. Weird, eh?

you're right..because when you see a person yawning, then psychologically your brain would instruct you to yawn too to get more air..
