    This is so very much me. I’m not missing your signals, I just ACTUALLY “hate playing games” like you claim to do and I’m already checked out.

      I really appreciate when people announce what they hate, so I can expect exactly that from them. Really helps out with those social cues. “Yes, Brenda, we know you hate drama; sucks that it follows you around like a fart cloud. I’m sure it was the dog.”

    Me when people start pointing to show me where something is. Stop pointing, actually tell me where it is

    When I get belligerent, social cues be damned! Though I have issues telling the right thing to do. I’ve gotten better at this overtime, but it’s not hard for people to sus me out as a non-normie.
