Many people with social issues often want friends but have difficulty making them or keeping them. Sometimes, they may misinterpret someone’s initial kindness or attention as “friendship”. Due to the difficulty with reading the intension of others, some people with social issues can be taken advantage of by those that are manipulative and recognize the vulnerability in others. Strategies such as the decision making guide may help people with social issues work through the process of accurately judging the behavior of those they are interacting with and making good decisions about developing relationships with these individuals. |
