I (17F) have always had issues with coming off rude, blunt/ bad timing when talking to people. I don’t mean to be rude but I seem to always say/emote one way and it comes across the other. I don’t mean it. It upsets me alot.
It honestly just feels like there’s something fundamentally wrong with me and it hurts. I try to just not talk or show expressions sometimes because I’m not sure how it will come off. However that’s also rude. I’m sick of being offensive.
I just say things and I have no clue that I’m being offensive, to me it feels normal to say things a certain way or to ask certain questions but then I get pulled aside and told that I was rude and I’m just so tired I don’t want to so this anymore.
I’m so tired of doing things wrong. My family have just accepted that I’m a rude person. And that hurts. I don’t want it to be that way.
I’m pretty sure I’m just rude, so please lay it to me straight and tell me how I can fix it.

Do you have some examples of interactions that go like this?
I’m always awkward when I talk too which obviously isn’t fun either. I’m only really comfortable with 2 people.
