They say, “Appreciation for someone begins with appearance, respects talent, aligns with character, lasts with kindness, and ends with integrity.”

In real life, the most important thing in interpersonal relationships is integrity, which reflects one’s emotional intelligence.

People with high emotional intelligence are respected and understood wherever they go because they avoid awkwardness and embarrassment, unlike those with low emotional intelligence who always mention these three phrases, causing issues in relationships.

You Can’t Even Do Such a Simple Thing Properly

Chekhov once said, “Indifference and cruelty are the paralysis of the soul, premature death.” People who frequently say this phrase are indifferent and cruel, always treating others with their own arrogance.

Respect is crucial in human interactions.

How you treat others determines how they treat you. If you want respect, you must first learn to respect others.

Being condescending will only lead to others’ aversion and rejection.

Learning to communicate is a skill. Those who communicate well exhibit high emotional intelligence.

A person who knows how to speak is actually the kindest because they care about others’ feelings and understand their struggles. Being with such a person is comfortable, unlike being with someone arrogant.

That’s Your Problem, Not Mine

Someone who always shifts blame is seen as selfish by others.

Benjamin Franklin once said, “If you want to deepen a relationship with someone, ask them for a favor.”

Good relationships require effort.

If you don’t help others, you won’t receive help when you need it.

I once had a colleague who, whenever he had a problem at work, everyone was willing to help him.

Once, a female colleague’s father fell ill, and she needed to visit him. Due to work commitments, she asked him to swap shifts. His response was, “That’s your problem, not mine.”

After that incident, fewer people were willing to interact with him, often avoiding him intentionally.

Those with low emotional intelligence always prioritize their interests, failing to respect and understand others, leading to damaged relationships.

Why Can’t You Take a Joke?

Among friends, harmless jokes can lighten the mood. But if jokes go too far, they can cause conflicts.

Truly humorous individuals know the limit of jokes, ensuring they don’t harm or embarrass others. Being with such people is comfortable.

Sometimes, a joke made casually can leave a lasting scar if it touches a sensitive topic.

Respect for others is essential.

Each person has a different personality, so adapting communication methods when interacting with different people is crucial for good relationships.

Emotional intelligence reflects one’s qualities and cultivation. Only when you learn to respect others will they understand how to respect you.

Those with high emotional intelligence care for others’ feelings, making interactions with them a form of self-care.

People with low emotional intelligence always blame others for their mistakes, never recognizing their own shortcomings. Spending time with them will narrow your perspective.

Being emotionally intelligent earns respect, understanding, trust, and support from others, essential in interpersonal relationships.

Apart from IQ, EQ plays a vital role in life. High emotional intelligence leads to good relationships, while low emotional intelligence keeps these phrases on repeat.

Being emotionally intelligent attracts more friends and widens your path in life.
