Summarize the following:
Make eye contact during conversation and otherwise give your full attention to the person you are speaking with. Keep your phone out of sight, square your body towards the person you are listening to, and indicate that you are listening with nonverbal cues like nodding. When you receive positive comments, you get an immediate oxytocin boost. In fact, any sentiments associated with giving or receiving love and admiration will increase your oxytocin levels. Meanwhile, people tend to exchange positive sentiments with those who feel favorably about them. Get in the habit of saying positive things to other people when they come to mind. Not only will you give them an oxytocin boost, you'll make them feel more comfortable speaking affectionately towards you as well. People are increasingly using online tools such as social media websites to interact with one another. While it's important to balance online interaction with face-to-face interaction, you can get a boost in oxytocin by exchanging pleasantries online. Next time you get on Facebook, for instance, make a point of liking at least 10 posts and make a handful of positive, friendly comments on friends' posts. Eating with another person is a proven way to bond. It can also calm you down and provide the opportunity for conversation. Ideally, invite someone to join you for lunch or dinner and offer to cover the tab. Giving and receiving also boost oxytocin levels.

summary: Practice active listening. Give compliments and encouragement. Engage positively with others online. Eat with other people.

Summarize the following:
Choose the corsage color and type based upon the clothing of the wearer. Some people prefer to coordinate while others want more of a contrast. You can also choose the color and style of the ribbon as well. Think about size too. A good corsage option might be a single white carnation surrounded by some greenery and a red or white thin ribbon. Before you choose a pinned option, you may want to ask the recipient if they have any metal allergies. If so, they may be more comfortable with a wrist-worn corsage. Some corsages come with standard, plain pins included in the package. However, you can also buy pins with black heads or even pearl ones. Just make sure that you buy a high quality pin so that it will not break under the pressure of holding up the corsage. If the wearer has multiple layers on you will need to decide how many to go through to keep the corsage in place. Ask the wearer if they plan to remove the outer layers at any point. If not, pin through as many as you need for stability. For example, a woman may be wearing a shawl that she plans to remove prior to the main event. If so, pull the top layer of fabric aside to clear a space for pinning. A corsage is typically placed about 4 inches down from the shoulder on the wearer's left. The bloom of the flower should face outward and the stem should be vertical. If you choose, you can slightly angle the stem to follow the lines of the outfit. Make sure to take into account any neckties or jewelry as you determine final placement.
summary: Select the corsage. Select custom pins. Ask about clothing layers, if needed. Position the corsage on the left side of the wearer's chest.
