It's funny because when I sit and think about it, I know all of the unwritten rules. It's just that when I'm actually living, I can't follow them. There's a part of me that refuses to change my personality. When I do try, I end up feeling awful inside, like there's no point in being popular if it's someone else and not really me.

Yeah, I am with you. If I sit and concentrate and think hard, I do know what to say and do, to be sociallly reciprocal, just like in the movies. But day to day, I don't remember it. I cannot process it during real life interaction. It is just too much! yeah, Id have to say I agree with you.

I am for sure I am not an expert in such rules, anyway I follow it very better than when I tryed hard to follow it. I think most of the secret to follow it, is to relax. (although to relax we mustn't think: I must relax now!! !)
