Составить 6 ! socialising in britain british people don't like to be embarrassed. they worry that they may not be able to make conversation with you, or understand what you say to them. they probably don't know much about your country (if they can guess where you arc from) or your culture, and fear they might say something that offends you. they think you wont understand their jokes (and you won't! it's actually easy to avoid this awkward encounter since they probably won't come up and start speaking to you anyway. british people like to have a lot of their own personal space. they want their own privacy. some british people may worry that if they make friends with you, you may not understand their social customs. they may also worry about interfering with your own personal space. if you are a woman, a british man may be concerned that you will feel threatened if he starts speaking to you. if there are several spare seats in a public place, most british people will sit away from other people. they also don't touch each other very much, and will usually apologise if they touch someone accidentally. it is rare for people to go to someone's house without having arranged it beforehand.
