In a social setting with a small group of friends or acquaintances, failing to engage with everyone can come off as impolite. This behavior may lead to feelings of neglect or unimportance among those who are not addressed. To foster a more inclusive atmosphere, it’s essential to take the initiative to interact with all members of the group.

According to Susan C. Young in her book "The Art of Action," making the effort to Mix, Mingle, and Glow is key to building positive relationships. By actively participating in conversations, you contribute to an environment where everyone feels valued and included, ultimately enhancing social bonds and group cohesion.
