You still got plenty of these right, but it may be time to brush up on a few social cues. If you often feel awkward in conversation and/or interaction with others, you may just not be a social person (which many of us aren't). Social cues are a learned behavior by all of us, and it takes time, practice, and awareness to employ/identify them correctly. These cues are instinctual for some who grew up with this skillset as an integral part of learning - and are a natural subconscious of social interaction. Others have to learn such behavioral cues on their own - and just like with anything else in life: The more you know, the better off you'll be!

You have a solid understanding of social interaction and the cues we use to inform each other - subconsciously or otherwise!

Social cues can be indirect or very direct, and they range from mild subconscious hints to staring contests for power. We're pretty confident that you're no stranger to such varied instances, and use your social awareness for betterment - as it should be!

Your awareness of human habits seems to be innate, and your understanding of more intricate social cues delves much deeper into researched psychological specifics - such as different types of eye contact and the distances we choose to stand from each other. Such an understanding has, no doubt, served you well - and is not to be taken for granted. Many envy your social prowess and your seemingly boundless ability to adapt to any social situation!
