You know, not sensing people’s emotions from their faces is seeming less like a handicap and more like I am immune to illusions every time I hear about the biases most people have. Then I realize I don’t expect people to be feeling something unless they tell me anyways, and that’s potentially just as inaccurate. Then I realize I might not be compensating exactly enough, and worry recursively.

Have you ever considered studying Facial Action Coding System?
Thanks for the link. I have been reading peoples faces for awhile, but there’s a second or so of lag, and I can miss things.
