Anybody else feel like, I understand social cues but could never FEEL them? Like everything in my head is literal, I can understand “hey this person is not happy / we’re havin a chill atmosphere” but can never react naturally to them cuz I don’t feel them

Idk, I’m on the opposite end of things. Was raised in a house where my parents did nothing but screamed at each other and couldn’t communicate so I feel like I over compensated in learning to consider everyone else’s emotions before my own. Which just means if somebody else in the room is upset I’m upset. I don’t do well at having my own feelings.
