Why can't i stop reading between the lines?
Ever since i was a teenager i only ever engaged in casual talk with my little sister or my brother. I can't stop thinking that people always have ulterior moves when talking to me.
Nowadays i can't talk to my coworkers or "friends" ( if you can even call them that) without thinking that they're trying to pull a prank on me or a joke.

I know this feel so fucking much.
No matter what anyone outside of my immediate family talks to me, no matter the context, I always assume that they're trying to subtlety make fun of me. Like everyone is in on a joke about me that I don't know about.
verbalization is an extension of want. even the most minor of verbal communication is laden with sub-conscience motivations; attention-seeking, understanding, bonding....
why stop? you have given yourself the ability to communicate faster than other people.

I think 90% of people are two faced. All smiles and politeness until you turn your back. Seriously i think they have been doing this your years. Never dropping the facade.

The thing is you probably feel lonely and insignificant, so you've constructed this idea in your mind that everyone is out to get you. Even though you don't feel that you enjoy this, it gives you the feeling that you're being paid attention to on some level. It's a hard comfort zone to get out of but forcing yourself to socialize is really the only way to do so.

but he's not talking about reading between the lines. it's not legitimate nonverbal cues that aid his ability to understand and communicate, it's paranoia.

nice dubs but that line of thought is cancerous.
