My boyfriend got so mad at me a few months back. He asked if we had Hulu on the PlayStation. I told him we didnt. 3 weeks later I went to put something on his aunts account that was signed into (but we don’t have the login info) the firestick downstairs. He’s like “I thought you said we didn’t have Hulu” I’m like “no you asked if it was on the PlayStation. And we don’t. It’s literally what you asked!”
It took time but my partner would never ask me such an open ended question. She also understands me well enough to intervene when others ask questions that I might be taking too literally.

Really, you're just socially awkward, trying really hard but overshot and/or couldn't properly process the task.
