Does anyone feel like they’re missing social cues that neurotypical people understand without being taught? I’m missing out on career opportunities because of it. Does any type of guide/rulebook exist to effectively mask?

The book “What Does Everybody Else Know That I Don’t?” may be what you’re looking for.
Step 1: Read How to make friends and influence people. Step 2: Cry, bc half the book is “listen and pay attention”
This is the one I’ve found most helpful, especially the last chapter:

I don’t know if it helped me mask better, but it made neurotypical behavior seem less confusing and more predictable.
