I use sarcasm but often people don't realize I'm being sarcastic and take me literally.
Other times, I'm being literal and am "read" as joking or being sarcastic.
I often miss sarcasm in others but pick it up maybe half the time?

I have had the same experiences! I have adapted more what I consider extreme body language and intonation to deal with it though and now people are able to read me better.

I am very sarcastic most of the time, I don't really know why I do it.

With people that I know well, I use sarcasm to make people laugh, but with my "enemies" I use it as a weapon to piss people off.
