I don't know. My boyfriend tells me I come off as pushy and aggressive sometimes, when I don't mean to. I have a hard time regulating myself in that regard, but I'm pretty friendly once you get to know me. I miss body language cues, sometimes.

I don't know if it is a bipolar problem. If I'm unsure, sometimes I will ask people what to do but it's difficult because it's hard to know I'm doing it. I would just ask, though, if you perceive something as off.

Also, people on the street will 99% of the time avoid you/avoid eye contact. It's the culture we live in. I wander around town because I don't have a car and take public transit and that's just a general rule.

I agree with Cocoa, though, bipolar can change and warp your perspective.
