There are obvious social skills like listening and being polite, but some of the most useful ones are never really taught. How to leave a conversation gracefully, how to disagree without making it weird, or how to accept a compliment without looking like you want to vanish.

A lot of adult life is just improvising these little moments and hoping nobody notices the awkward seams.

What social skill should people actually be taught?
