- chillacy 11y agoAh I remember after I read that in high school I would overanalyze social interactions. Overtime they started becoming more subconscious and automatic so it doesn't get in the way. Today I can point out the reason why I find someone standoffish or sad based on body language, where my extraverted friends who never formalized their knowledge can know what they're feeling but not necessarily formulate why it is.
- JohnBooty 11y agowhere my extraverted friends who never formalized their knowledge can know what they're feeling but not necessarily formulate why it is. Haha yeah. It reminds me of the way that non-native English speakers often have an understanding of English that is deeper and more formal than native English speakers. (I am sure that this happens with all languages; English is simply the one I have experience with)
