How do people navigate playful or implied conversation without overthinking it?
I tend to communicate very directly and I notice that some conversations operate on a different layer. They are playful, implied, and sometimes symbolic rather than literal.
I can follow the words, but I am often more curious about how people know what response fits in the moment, or which cues they are reacting to.
I do not see this as good or bad. It just seems like a different mode of communication that some people pick up intuitively.
I’m mostly interested in understanding how people approach this from lived experience. For those who did not always find this natural, what helped you understand it better?
