I annoy people and can't work out why?
I annoy family, friends, random people at parties I just met (which obviously isn't going on with covid right now) and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I'm quiet, I avoid controversial topics or teasing people, I stay out of people's way, I don't fidget and try to be polite and thank people for things.
If anyone can think of recommendations for other things to avoid doing I'd love to know.
I don't have a wide range of social experience and am terrible at reading expressions. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Maybe it's because you make everything about you. You said "I" 11 times in five sentences. On average, "I" only makes up 5.6% of the words people say. That means you should say it only one in every 20 words. In 98 words, you said it 11 times, meaning you're about twice as self-absorbed as the averge joe.
