imagine that everyone is extremely sensitive to anything that you say that might possibly be interpreted as even mildly critical. and if somebody wants pity, actively try to be all "ohhhh poor person, everyone, it's so bad, so bad"

also never EVER speak your mind about controversial subjects. if you really have the need to say something about a topic like that, figure out the most obsequious and irrefutable mini version of what is on your mind, and let that sink in for a VERY long time and feel out how people responded to your view before going further

whatever the contemporary tech is, that's how people conceive of mind. The brain is a reciever, from an engineering point of view. Without incoming information being constant, you quickly lose track of where facial features should be in relation to each other, memory is absolute garbage.

People have patterns too. You just have to observe how they react to stuff, how they change facial expressions and body movement. Compare that to possible reactions to the thing they react to and now you know how they feel and what they think. Just act accordingly. If social interactions are too much for you, learn by watching youtube, films or whatever. If someone have a stronger emotion, rewind multiple times to analyze how their face change. After some time and compariaon to their previous reactions you'll see if they are genuine or not. Analyze that too. Do that with real people too, and after some time your subconciousness will understand how others feel and what they think

Gotta love autistic people who are incapable of understanding human behavior, behavioral patterns, emotion or natural reactions and then claim superiority because they are able to solve a logic puzzle quicker.

I'm very empathetic and caring but I'm shit at comforting people who are upset, or at apologizing, or giving encouragement, or even receiving encouragement. I cringe myself half to death at the thought. I feel an instinctive desire to be so socially labile (and can do it when drunk with minimal mental cringe), but I'm just too inhibited. Too self-conscious. To the outside this looks cold and autistic, but that's not how it is internally.

Brains are malleable and will change to your habits even music/art ability has been shown primarily from practice not talent. You may not become the best but, practicing by being social will actually change your brain chemistry if you keep up at it and your EQ will improve dramatically. Women are only better a socializing because people and the parents talk and converse with them more at a young age. Boys on average get about a 1/3 of the attention their sibling sisters get its rather fucked.

It is about empathetic recognition of other people's states and your own intuition about how to behave towards them. You can develop it by reading YA novels and also well-regarded fiction.

That certainly doesn't apply to you or more than 5% of the people on this board. Most of /sci/'s posters are autismos who never had a life or noteworthy amount of social contacts. You lack the ability to understand human behavior. Stop pretending to be mentally capable do understand them, consciously choosing to ignore the peasants because of it. You're nothing but an internet grown incel who hates people for the sake of hating them, who'd be unable to ever use their behavioral patterns to your own advantage. People like you are the reasons why you need people in accounting, marketing and management, cause autismos would be unable to function in the real world, let alone a free economy.

>>11002651
It clearly isn't given how humans tend to adjust their behavior for socio-ecnomic reasons. Autismos are lost once they face false-positives like lies. Unable to understand sarcasm, because it requires a detailed understanding of the situation they've found themselves in etc. Can't simply flip, overlap or rotate a triangle. Can't simply read a few books on it , either.

Or the codemonkeys who call X useless, despite X being the primary reason they codemonkey A and B live in a civilized and well structure society. If said society would suddenly fall apart, the codemonkeys would be first ones on the chopping block. Yet they tend to be the most smug and arogant, almost taking pride in their mental impairment.
