Do you think that you miss social cues?


No. I'm pretty astute when it comes to reading other's intentions. Of course I am not perfect, but obviously I just simply interpret their behavior. If they ghost me or make excuses to not interact with me, then that means they don't like me, anymore or even before that.
Nope, I am just sometimes too careless and impulsive to pay attention, I don’t miss anything when I am actually listening.
I'm sure I miss lot of them, I don't pay attention to how society changes over time in terms of social behavior, and was already mostly ignoring them to begin with and sticking to niche social groups that fit my interests, hobbies, and personality.
Yeah probably because of the hostile environment I grew up in. It's why my intuition is so good.

i know i do as i have a very mild form of aspergers which is a disorder that specifically means you miss social cues. mine is almost only when am being flirted with. which means, for a eoman to have successfully flirted with me requires extremely blunt, not subtle, stating it.
Think? No- I KNOW I miss social cues.
This is both a reason for, and a result of, having an autistic childhood best friend. It happens to them even more, so they actually say what they want.
I’d say it’s one of my stronger suits, just socializing in general. I’m usually wondering what the hell is wrong with everyone else that THEY’RE so awkward😂
Not many, but some yes.
Not sure if it counts but I'm awful at picking up implicit meanings or double entendres. It's something that causes hilarity especially with my wife and my mother.
I think it's also one of the things that somehow prevents me from having guy friends.
There are dynamics in male friend groups I'm not good at picking up, hence they drop me after a while.
Honestly I'm good at picking up social cues with guys trying to tell me something but not with girls. I miss so many social cues from girls.
not usually, no... not nowadays
but I've missed them sometimes... and happened a lot more as a child and young teen
as hell...
being autistic doesn't help :D
How would we know that we miss on social cues if we miss them?
I don't feel comfortable unless I'm around water. Maybe I missed my calling as a water conservationist or a Navy Seal (I'm an Army veteran)? I also am not near water now.
I'm mostly up with it but some times I miss and know I have missed.
Yup, one of my dating profiles started something like:
They call me Mr Oblivious... well, they could, I wouldn't know.
Sometimes, when I'm completely oblivious and too inside my own head, lost in thought, spacing out, and generally not paying attention
Even though I'm reasonably aware, I'm still a guy, and I know I sometimes miss things. Women tend to be better, but they also put far more importance on socializing than men do.
All the time. It comes with being autistic...
Simples...
I think everybody does to some extent at some point. We're not robots and can't be hyper-aware of everything.
what if i am the social cue...
all the time, it can get frustrating
I'm a guy, I often miss subtleties.
Yes, mostly because I don't pay much attention.
I'm surprised the number of guys isn't 100%...
No, but I ignore them which is probably worse.
No, but sometimes I ignore them. LOL
