I've realised over the years that I've taught myself all of these traits like laughing in conversation, eye contact, head tilt, mirroring body language, even learning a lot of facts so I can relate to people only because I was a painfully shy kid. I learnt that people like me better when I do these things even though it comes very unnaturally to me. Does this make me a psychopath?

Reply to How much a person laughs in conversation appears to be a stable trait associated with being relatable, and is not necessarily reflective of enjoyment. by [deleted]
