Figuring out social queues, proper hand language, figuring out how to say what I'm trying to say without sounding like a complete idiot, knowing when to make eye contact with people and when not to, and not talking too fast, too slow, too loud, or too quietly at the right times are challenges that I've faced most of my life
I've always struggled with this too. I still struggle to socialize with people that I've worked with for over 12 years, as well as family members. I communicate better online.
