Observational Notebook - Revealing Actions



I am watching a movie with a group of people. One of these people, who I will refer to as Jim, does not care for another one of these people, who I will refer to as Jebediah. Throughout the movie, whenever Jebediah makes a comment, Jim becomes noticeably silent and tense. Whenever Jebediah asks a question, Jim's answer is almost always a stern "no." After the movie, Jebediah suggests that we want to watch another movie, and Jim quickly turns him down. In fact, throughout the night, Jim is made noticeably uncomfortable by Jebediah being there.
