I agree with this 100% but whenever I've made this argument to a therapist or other I have never been validated and there are usually things implied that indicate there is a nuance that I failed to see. This is exactly my problem with social interactions. And it's not just that I don't know everything I'm expected to know, but that I pick up things others don't want acknowledged--and it's hard to tell what is what. I've just recently started thinking about this in terms of myself tending to focus on the negative aspect of the info being relayed. I do catch myself at times more focused on reading between the lines--a practice that I used in childhood to protect myself often.
