Ugh. It is suuuch a pain in the arse trying to figure out how to read people. I've never been good at it.
There are times in your life when you are surrounded by familiarity and you "get" everyone around for the most part. Those times are nice. And then you go and meet new people which is fine at first because everybody's doing the formalities and niceties that come with adding new people to the mix.
But then there comes that stage where the new people are getting kind of regular and the facades are wearing down but you still just don't know them well enough to know how to read them right and you're stuck in this weird hybrid of familiar and formal not having a clue of what buttons are dangerous and what buttons are no big deal...or even if they understand you correctly to know you're not intentionally looking for buttons.
That stage is officially being added to the ever growing list of things I hate.
