I Have Issues

I struggle with recognising subtlety. I always have done.
I never really know how to take someone and it's even more difficult on social media because I can't see their facial expressions.
I've learned over time to ape or mimic what an appropriate response is but even then sometimes I'm waaaaaaay off the mark.
So, at times, I ask a lot of questions to try and ensure that I am reading the situation correctly however this can piss a lot of people off as it's conversation they want not the bloody Spanish inquisition.

Are you doing yourself any favours by aping and mimicking what an appropriate expected response will be? If people are going to be upset anyway, let them be upset with you being you.
