Are your social skills "passable"?

Post Reply New Topic

Apparently, I "pass" during simple or initial encounters with people but not after prolonged or repeated encounters.
I don't "see" myself at all so I don't know what I'm doing or how I could work on whatever it is I'm doing to not pass.

I lost my last job directly due to misunderstandings and social skill issues with my manager, who was a young NT with ADHD and no patience to try to clear things up. It's not really anything new though. I seem to have issues crop up anytime I spend time around people, whether it's work, school, acquaintances, etc. The only common part of it is people yell at me or avoid me all the sudden without me knowing why.

I'm thinking I need to find some trusted people who could maybe explain to me what skills I need to work on.

Yeah, I'm still clearly odd, but I can generally do the thing, and sometimes my oddness is charismatic.
