I think I talk okay. I just miss a lot of stuff that other people do and never know what is going on. But I guess I should say that I also say stupid things that are offensive sometimes and don't realize it until it is way too late.

I suck at group dynamics, and to have to work with a group of women is my worst nightmare, because women have all the little secret signals and codes going on all the time. I mean, it's terrifying. I do better with men as far as work goes, or by myself.

And I have to say the cumulative effect of it is really bearing down on me at this point in my life. I can't seem to overcome that right now. No advice, just empathy and commiseration.
