I agree to the extent that I joined a Church when I was sixteen and spent a year or two observing peoples behaviour there as I really wanted to make friends there. I managed to learn a lot of social cues and get involved in stuff but this year had a mini breakdown I guess when I burnt out trying to do that plus do my first full time job after uni with a bullying boss. My behaviour has now regressed massively to the point where I forget all the social questions I should ask people like 'how are you' as I assume they know that I want to know etc! I also had to take a break from doing stuff in the church. Now, it feels like they are phasing me out and don't like me so much.
Strange times, I should have stayed with my obsessions and just left it at that!
