Some people walk into a room and everyone quietly adjusts. They don't raise their voice. They don't try. And most of them have no idea it is happening at all.

This video breaks down seven behaviours that reveal when someone is intimidated by you — filling your silences, laughing a beat too late, cycling their eye contact, asking questions they don't want answered, agreeing too fast, announcing themselves before they arrive, and repeating your words back to you. For each one: what causes it, what it actually means, and what to do with the information.

Concepts referenced include Stephen Porges' work on neuroception, Paul Ekman's research on microexpressions, Edward Hall's proxemics, and the chameleon effect described by Tanya Chartrand and John Bargh.
