well said merrymac!
I don’t have the verbal filter at all, and I insist any friends or co-workers are always straight with me. Like I tell them, if I mess up, tell me straight up – and soon. Don’t stew, don’t assume, don’t guess. Talk it out.
I also miss social cues. Had I not been so bad at that, I’m afraid I’d have had a dozen girlfriends in highschool and gone to a lot of dances, instead of 1……….. looking back, I now realize what they were doing, what they were saying, and all those times that they were really hinting that they wanted ME to take them to whatever event……….
