   The main questions in frames are Who are you to the person you are conversing with? and Who is the person to you? Frames determine who you are to each other in group contexts, such as social circles and night games. Every reaction has an impact on the interaction's story or deeper significance. The interaction's tone is established by them. However, every reaction also shapes how the receiver is perceived by others; your acts will shape how the receiver sees you.”
