Do you have any trouble telling what facial expressions mean in any way?

I have no idea because sometimes I think an expression so obviously means one thing and then it turns out to be another. But I can usually get the overall meaning of the "tone" (mood or whatever).

For me, it really depends on how well I know the person. If it's someone who is close to me, I usually don't have any problems, but if it's just a random person who happens to be an acquaintance (ie, I know their name and a little bit about them), it's difficult to tell.

i understand the majority of expressions, but im not always 100%, infact most of the time im hesitant to react in a certain way because im not confident enough... in fact thats on the rare occasion that i actually LOOK at someone while im speaking to them :D

If the person is someone who is close to me, like my siblings or my best friend, I don't have problems.

Understanding other people expressions is harder.
