Social etiquette involves how you behave in public, with friends and strangers, whether you are at someone’s home or in a restaurant. It also prevents you from being embarrassed later by behaviour that was unbecoming or offensive. If you treat your friends and neighbours with respect, you are more likely to remain on their lists of people they trust and care about. In fact, having good social etiquette, realizing social norms, having good personal grooming habits are all a reflection of who you are as a person, your character and the values you uphold.
