Yeah, I think just engage people how you normally do, but as you're having a debate or what have you, just pull back if you notice that they're not looking happy anymore, ha. Try to take note of peoples tone of voice. If you sense that they're getting angry, just wind it down and change the subject to something else. Facial expressions, too, can reveal quite a bit about how someone might be feeling without them actually telling you, as well.

And if none of those signs are there and people seem okay to continue a relationship with you, then that's great. I mean I'm really not the relationships expert but those are my basic tools.
