You ever forget/mix up your social scripts?

I mix up my words all the time.

When was much younger used to go over scripts before interacting with people in new situations . And re-script and over again , then I was just quiet . On occasions . Then after a long. Time , then it did not matter , and enough experience later in a variety of unexpected situations ,I pretty much got a little more self confident . And started to
Recognize social scripting alittle better . And learned that NTs make strange faces if they are trying to give you a answer that is unexpected ,or you give one to them . So I learned to mimic this , if I was given a uncomfortable answer or situation .
Normally my face was pretty much expressionless as I got older , then I slowly became used to using some
Facial expressions , other than. Being uncomfortably silly . To ease the tension I felt going into a room of people , I would have to potentially engage. Learned to practice smiling when I entered a location. Rather than worry about being silly . And hope my face blindness does not show up just then ? Or some such symptom. Doesn’t show up.
People have seen for 6 months or more and cannot recall their names . Name blindness .?
