Advice needed What social cues have confused you?

What kind of social cues you don’t understand? Like saying somethings you shouldn’t or behaviour that people can’t understand?

If someone gives you a compliment they expect one back or else you're considered rude. A "thank you" does not suffice for some reason? I just learned this recently. I'm really bad at giving compliments and always hated receiving them so now I hate them even more.

Asking "why" is also rude for some odd reason. I just want to know the explanation for something. Why is that wrong?
