Dear John and Marry

I want to congratulate you on your wedding. I hope that both of you will have a happy life and you can understand each other well. In this letter, I want to give you some guidelines regarding the basic principles of interpersonal communication.

Some of the principles and misconceptions in interpersonal communication

The sharing of thoughts, feelings and ideas with the other person is referred as interpersonal communication. These skills of sharing our feelings are developed through learned behaviors and they can be further improved with practice, reflection, knowledge and feedback. People deal with interpersonal communication on routine basis and it is imperative to understand some of the basic principles of interpersonal communication. These basic principles are described below:

Interpersonal communication is not reversible:

This means that interpersonal communication cannot be reversed back. When a person says something, he cannot take his words back in real sense and cannot remove…...

Interpersonal communication is a form of communication that takes place between two or more people who are close to one another unlike other forms of communication it does not involve a lot of people. There are various aspects of interpersonal communication that can be discussed but for purposes of this paper it has been narrowed to look at the principles and misconceptions in effective interpersonal communications, the barriers to effective interpersonal interactions, how perceptions, emotions, and nonverbal expression affect interpersonal relationships, the impact of gender and culture on interpersonal communications and the strategies for managing interpersonal conflicts.
The first principle states that interpersonal communication is irreversible, it indicates that once a communication has occurred between two or more people, it can never be taken back, the effects are felt by the receiver based on the interpretation, it can either be verbal or non-verbal, whether intentional or unintentional provided there is a…...

Interpersonal Communication
Communication skills are a bulwark to effective relationships and successful living. Effective communications are not innate attributes; they are acquired skills that can be honed to achieve not only successful dialogues, but meaningful connections between people. For the purposes of this paper, I have chosen to focus on the topic of communication in interpersonal relationships. I will then explain the principles and misconceptions in effective interpersonal communications, discuss the impact of gender and culture on interpersonal communications, and describe the process by which self-concept is developed and maintained.

"Communication" may be defined as "any process in which people share information, ideas, and feelings" that incorporates both the written and spoken word as well as "body language, personal mannerisms, and style" (Hybels & Weaver, 2007, pg. 8). While the communication process is made up of various elements (i.e. sender-receivers, messages, channels, noise, feedback, and setting) it is important to remember that…...

As English is my second language, I tend to be more shy with those whom I am in charge of. and, at the same time, they may have low self-esteem too, which makes a hazard for ineffective communication (Lemay, E., & O'Leary, K 2012).
When this occurs, people only hear the negative, therefore the sender has take that into consideration when talking to someone who has low self-esteem (ower,2010).

From research, it was discovered that human beings identify with the fact that the physical body is not the core or "eternal dimension" of human nature but rather the "vehicle" of the eternal spirit as it presents itself in the world. This eternal spirit lives in every body by spiritually connecting everyone through the ultimate source of life. In addition to this spiritual connection, there are important social and ecological connections between and among the living especially between nurse and patient. While…...

Interpersonal Communication
The art of communication is the certainly that- an art. One must be educated in the art in order to learn the beauty, the essence and the wisdom of what it is trying to portray. Art contributes to one's life in a dynamic and multi-faceted way. The art of interpersonal communication is certainly one that has contributed to my life in a multi-faceted way and there a myriad of different topics that I have encountered that have helped me grow as a person. Interpersonal communication "can be defined as: communication that occurs between two or more people in an organization" (Trauernicht). Using this definition as a foundation and further reflecting upon where I started before taking the class and where I am now, it does seem that I have experienced some personal growth over the course of the interpersonal communication class. It seems that I have learned that it…...

Such situations may occur in negotiations among business partners, marriage partners, families, political parties, and so on. Negotiation is a process that occurs for the purpose of consensus.
When a process approach is taken to interpersonal communication, both or all parties enter the conversation with the purpose of influence or being influenced. It is also accepted that all parties have specific goals, aspirations, fears, expectations and so on, which are either related or unrelated to the negotiation at hand. The process approach is then useful in working towards a common goal for the benefit of both the group and the wider sphere of influence, where decisions or consensus reached has wider effects. Examples of this can be political, educational, or family settings.

Each persons participating in interpersonal communication brings a variety of communicative skills to the conversation. These skills are enhanced while participating in the conversation. In this way, the process…...

Although I have been through many of these encounters in my career, this one was going to be different because I knew that she was going to ask my opinion on how our hurricane evacuation and subsequent command relocation went. Although I prepared myself and practiced my answer, I let my nerves get the best of me and did not even come close to communicating the message that I intended. I think this happened because I was going to tell her that I didn't feel the command did enough in supporting their people during the recovery effort and that the people that were still in need are being ignored. Instead, I painted a rosy picture and basically told her that everything was moving along smoothly. By not communicating my message properly, I'm sure she now incorrectly perceives that everything is good and that her people are being taken care…...

Instead I interpreted from her seemed lack of concern, and ease at which she consented to help me as affirmation that she had the task under control. Had I simply asked her if she had any immediate conflicts, such as other work, I might have known that she did not have time to complete the task in time for the deadline or that I would be better served in asking someone else or doing the task myself, possibly with her guidance.

Interpersonal Communication in Boyz in the Hood
Boyz in the Hood (1991), directed by John Singleton, examines the obstacles that individuals in 1980s Crenshaw, California are forced to face and the struggles endured to overcome them. The film focuses on Tre Styles and icky Baker, two friends from different backgrounds who attempt to overcome their struggles together. These obstacles include, but are not limited to, Tre and icky's individual and shared socio-economic status, the stigma associated with youths from Crenshaw, and personal life goals and ambitions.

In the film, language helps the viewer understand how the characters view themselves and how they view each other. One term that is used frequently and in a derogatory manner is n-. The term appears to be used as an attempt to subjugate individuals. For instance, when Furious Styles, Tre's father, calls the police after shooting at an intruder, one of the police officers -- who…...

In western culture, the touching of cheeks generally mean a greeting more personal than a hand shake but less intimate than an actual kiss. Most of the non-verbals they displayed, like the smiles and the touches (which stood out the most among all non-verbals displayed), seem to be intentional but nevertheless unforced due to their apparent fondness of each other.
The third is between two teenagers playing in a basketball in a backyard court. As they were playing, both of them were not taking their eyes off the ball. Once, one of them stole the ball from the other and took a shot which went in. As the ball dropped to the ground, the stealer grinned broadly and raised both his arms while the other one shook his head while looking at the ground. In this situation, both of them exhibited rule-guided non-verbals as in our society, raising your arms…...

There is a comfort in us assigning roles to one another, a division of labor that makes our lives easier. We have had to negotiate this relational profile because, when we began dating, he was convinced that intimacy required constant togetherness, while I require a significant amount of alone time. We had to develop rules that made him understand that I need alone time in order to be a better partner.
I would say that our way of knowing one another is both particular and universal. I am very adept at picking up on body language and other forms of nonverbal communication, and, to me, that is a universal way of knowing someone. He is very empathetic, and seems to genuinely feel pain when people he knows are hurting. Because of that, both of us have always related to the world at large in more of a particular/private manner than…...

In his interpersonal communication article "How Can Email Communication Affect Your Business?" Chris McClean attempts to help current and potential business owners, business partners, employees and customers to be careful in how they use or abuse email. McClean shares a personal anecdote about how he once almost made a negative assumption about an entire business entity based solely on a response from that organization to an email he had sent to them. Conveniently, the story in the article has a happy ending because both he and the company rectified the situation by sending apologetic emails to each other. However, McClean does point out that there are those individuals who are out there in cyber land that may not use an apology to 'right' a misrepresented or…...

Communication Differences of Men and Women
That women and men communicate very differently is an idea that has attracted the attention of the media since the 1990s. The debate has been so intense and the variations so apparent, that such books as 'Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus', which postulate that the two genders must have originated from different planets, have become some of the century's bestsellers. It is precisely because of these differences that men and women would often interpret the same message differently, and it is for the very same reason that the 'battle of the sexes' would often arise. Women are highly sensitive to the feelings of others, and would often use conversations to build interpersonal relationships and establish lasting rapports. Men, on the other hand, are often less attuned to the feelings of others, and often take conversations as a competitive sport or as nothing…...
