Some people definitely play dumb and pretend not to be mindreading you when you interact with them

There is a level of emotional intelligence high enough that it actually becomes frightening.

@ChrisChipMonk Turning it off/down just makes sense a lot of the time because it can freak people out so much

@ChrisChipMonk this is why i just spill my brains onto twitter. good practice. i don't need an internal mind that can't be read. i just show it to people, more in my face body than words. i wonder if this is why they fear me.

@ChrisChipMonk When I meet anybody whose demeanor I can't fully read /understand, I assume they're a higher level and are reading me

@ChrisChipMonk there is an appropriate amount of mind reading to reveal depending on the situation and often it is zero

@ChrisChipMonk What am I supposed to do? Go around narrating people's thoughts for them as I take every piece of information from them from which I have processed automatically? 🤔

@Elizabe99526938 @ChrisChipMonk For us people with autism, that may actually be more helpful than hiding your superpower. Narrate us to ourselves, teach us your ways!

@EthanAllenMathr @ChrisChipMonk I used to do this with my daughter....I possibly made life way more complicated than I needed to for her.

@ChrisChipMonk Yup. It's a challenging calibration (and ettiquette) problem. Especially for those who like feedback, and struggle to model others who don't necessarily want it.

Once you unlearn your social & dating anxiety, it becomes hard not to notice how anxious many others are. Sometimes it takes fifteen minutes, but you can usually tell from one glance

@ChrisChipMonk I figure it out when they’re doing it and start acting extremely out of character to give them false reads.
