I have the ability to read others. Their facial expressions, body language, slight movements, tone of voice etc. tells me a lot about what they are thinking. This "ability" has allowed me to distinguish friend or foe, it has allowed me to understand a person without needing them to tell me what they are thinking. This "ability" comes at a price however. When I can read a person, I know what every thought they are thinking, especially if they are pissed off at me or annoyed at me. When that happens, I get angry at them in return. My talent has caused a lot of self doubt and discomfort for me. Sometimes I'm wrong about what a person is thinking, in return it caused a lot of unnecessary interaction and even relationship deterioration. While this ability is useful to a certain extent, I think the cost outweighs the benefits, I going to put a stop to it.
Note to self: Stop reading people. Never take action based upon a reading, it will do nothing but cause trouble.
