How true is this?

How true yall think this is?

I seen people talk about this thing called “affective ignorance” where somebody in a group talks to everybody except one person specifically. Like they’ll be social as hell with everyone else but when it comes to you they suddenly act weird, stiff, avoid eye contact, or overly focused on somebody else.

Most people instantly think “oh they don’t fw me” but the theory is that sometimes it’s actually overcompensation. Like they’re TOO aware of you so they try too hard to act normal and end up doing the opposite.

And lowkey I feel like there’s a difference between somebody genuinely not caring about your presence vs somebody actively avoiding your presence. One feels casual and the other feels oddly pointed.

Yall think this is actual psychology or niggas just overanalyzing social interactions?
