i have always wonder on one of the rules of human relation that is to "show genuine interest to people". I have come across so many people that happens to be acquaintance, as i am sure u guys did, yet showing genuine interest isnt just an easy task as i sometimes feel that i am not interested in a certain person or rather i dont find him/her interesting enough. Whenever these happens, i prefer to stay in distance with that certain person. for i feel that its just a safe thing to do as to do. How bout u guys, how do u show genuine interest if u find that person interesting enough?

The best way to show interest in someone is by the sincerity, of the small gestures, politeness, but without excessive force, without losing the identity. The most important always be yourself.

It would be hard. With me having a business it's kind of hard too. I try to be really nice to people but some of my "customers" get on my last nerve. I try to be as nice as possible and stay away as much as possible if I can. I really don't find to many people that disinterest me though. I am a pretty easy going person. I find things interesting about almost everyone I come in contact with. Every person has a different story to their life and knows something I don't so I find it interesting to find out what it is...

i have tried that, to be nice and i have always been polite yet sometimes it do happens that the last thread of my patience is pulled and thus, its the time that i rather stay away. i dunno but, there are times that i really cant help it why i felt that i am not interested to a certain person at all but this happens rarely though

i think that showing a genuine interest in someone means that you really care about the person, talk to them, find out information about them, etc.
