Judgemental about tact

People ask me why am i so damn 'chat' judgemental. I'm particular harsh on the subject of tact in the social environment. When i see somebody doing something out of the normal social convention, unknowingly making it awkward or hurting/offending someone, I would have F1 racer type thoughts in my head instantly.

For this particular issue of tact, I can say that the reason i'm particularly harsh is because of my past. Since I used to not care what other people think, brutal truth and all, it took me awhile to get out of those habits and join the lane of tactful people. (ironically, NOW i care too much about what other people think. Its like a freaking pendulum swinging from one end to the other)

Even then, more often than not, I still screw up because it doesn't come naturally to me. So when I see other people doing it, it's like looking into a mirror of my past self. Who likes to be reminded of that?
