- YES, this is so important!
Also, according to etiquette (though you did it right), a lady is always supposed to offer her hand to a gentleman, not the other way around. Though this is not as important as grip.
- I hate when I am around people I don't know, and no one introduces us. It is so awkward to find a pause in the conversation (without interrupting) to introduce myself.
