It happens quite often to me. Recently I've been dealing with lawyers and real estate agents because I'm moving. The first time I met them apparently I did well interacting. But as we have more and more interaction over time, I can see that their behavior towards me has changed because of my awkwar...

I seem to be on the more 'mild' end of the spectrum because I am still able to read facial expressions and body language to some degree. In fact, most of my social interactions really aren't that bad and if I do make a mistake it's something very minor that the other person probably didn't even noti...

I've had a couple times where I went and stood in a line and didn't realize that the cashier had just placed a small "line closed" sign there even though there were a few people standing there who must have already been in line. It's not a big deal, at some point someone will point it out ...
