Can you elaborate a bit more?
I remember years ago stating on this forum that I can read facial expressions and body language which being on the spectrum should not be possible. Now the experts are starting to admit maybe they were wrong, actually not maybe they are just plain wrong should have asked people like me rather than making assumptions. sites like this are informing them. The last thing we need is some intellectuals dictating to us how our minds work. I'm also a closet
extrovert.

Interesting. The theory of mind stuff tends to annoy me. I'm not good at getting facial expressions (probably because I tend to look somewhere else), but I'm good at understanding body posture and the overall "message" people send, even if I'm slow and it gets complicated in a group. The issue is that I do not react or mirror like other people do so I know it looks like I don't get it. Even if I understand other people's perspective, I may not react or be indifferent.
I do not like crowds as I try to read every one body language at once very distracting.
