Sometime we say something that leaves people with a bad impression but it is possible to fix the situation.First,you must figure out why you have made others upset or uninterested.Think about the conversation you had earlier and try to remember what you said that offended other.For example, sometimes we tell a joke that they do not think is funny.Second,be prepared for the next time you see them.Make a plan about what you to say and what topics you should avoid.You do not want to make the same mistake twice! Finally,when you see them again,be positive and act interested.Do not bring up the bad past experience.Instead,focus on the present.You should get them to talk a lot so that they feel more comfortable around you.Ask them questions,listen carefully to their answers,and respond with thoughtful comments that show you care about what they have to say.There is no magic formula to turn a negative impression into a positive one ; however,if you stay positive and seem interested in changing their opinion about you,you are more likely to get them to like you the next time!
