Wonder? I've been aware of it for a very long time.

I don't think I'm socially awkward as much as socially insecure. I know what the right things to do and say are, but in the heat of the moment I am prone to the odd faux pas. Clearly theory is much easier than practice. Many times I get home and as I unwind and review the events I suddenly slap my palm to my forehead thinking, "Why did I say/do that???" Of course, I'm sure it's never as bad as I imagine. I mean, people do still want to be around me and seem to enjoy my company. All the same, though...
