Even the most socially agile person can find themselves dumfounded by some of life’s more awkward situations. There is no obvious way to deal with a friend negging you or an in-law asking you rude questions.
It’s in these moments, though, that Harvard-trained etiquette expert Sara Jane Ho sees herself as a resource.
Ho is the founder of the finishing school Institute Sarita, host of the Netflix show “Mind Your Manners,” and author of an upcoming book, also called “Mind Your Manners.” She’s even given advice on The Drew Barrymore Show about how to break up fights at family gatherings and the right way to bring flowers to a party.
“I feel that part of etiquette is about putting people around you at ease,” she told CNBC Make It last year. “Instead of etiquette being a restricting convention, I see it as being an empowering tool.”
Here’s how Ho would handle six awkward scenarios that happen all too often.
1. When someone is rude to you
If you find yourself on the receiving end of a sassy remark, you can counter it with kindness and class with just one question.
“If a friend is rude to you in a social setting, I like to use a three-word answer: ‘Are you okay?’” she says.
