Is it normal to sometimes know what people are thinking?

I've "done" it. Actually, it just happens. Always confirmed at a later date. Others inner dialog is Very strange when you figure out that's what it was. Did you used to think it was your inner voice being negative?

what's worse hearing or calling them on it and watching them deny it?

i'm a hoot at the dinner table!

Yes of course. It’s being good at reading people.

But it's more like hearing their voice inside of their thoughts. Just a snippet but is the overall way they feel about a situation which should help you determine something critical about that person in relation to you.

i feel like i can put thoughts into my hubbys head after over twenty years together.
when i do this, he normally responds.
i told him a long time ago i could but i dont think he ever took me seriously.

i get more flashes than words.
if you get words you are way farther along.

All the time, I can read people.

I do it continuously. But, occasionally, I'm wrong.

I wonder how far spread that ability is. I like it, its pretty cool.
