After reading; also think the ‘sparkle of the eye’ could also be misinterpreted, and just an illusion of the person looking into their eyes not that that person actually has a sparkle in their eyes but that they feel this connection.
It might say it in here but also dealing with personal space and different cultural backgrounds in most English -speaking countries; like in America, we have more space in our country and in Europe. There’s more space and less population, but in places like Latin America, Middle Eastern, and even parts of Asia, they are much more populated; so they are used to close proximity. Just because of- in their living environment- people live much closer then in an American society.
Cool thing I just wanted to add in here, that I know that dates back to Samurai times; is in Japan. Even today, when you’re having a business meeting or even in an elevator or with business people; the person of the upmost importance sits farthest away from the door or stands farthest away from the door, and that goes back to Samurai times. This is because whoever is closest to the door; would be the one to get killed first. So they are further back now out of respect, but back then it was literally to situate them to stay alive.Hide original message
Also; about touch- I have some friends from South Korea that came to visit and whenever they think somethings really funny they would hit the other persons arm and some of my American friends found that very rude and mean when they are just showing their appreciation for the joke or whatever was said that was funny.
