Bros... I unironically don't know how close to stand. I was reading something on spacial anthropology and it was saying that people in different cultures stand at different distances. The problem is, this stirred my mind into realizing that I don't know how close to stand. Since then I keep micro-adjusting how close I am when I talk to people. It haunts me at night. I fear that I am incurably autistic regarding this matter. Please recommend books for either this feel, or books to help me know how close to stand. Thanks.

I stay away from people completely. Works just fine.

Don’t micro adjust, I went to school with a kid who did this we all thought he was autistic

Only regarding this specific matter, anon. I assure you that I am quite normal in most aspects of my daily life.

I mostly do. But I inevitably become ensnared by the beauty of some woman and can't help it.

So how the fuck do you expect to learn at what distance to stand, if you didn't even write here which culture you're in? Stupid frogposter.

Any two large books will do
Just hold them stacked vertically between you and the person you're talking to
Actually, while covid lasts better make it XL books
