What's something you're so good at, you have to pretend you're not?

I have always been like this too but have to play it down incase people think I am being a know-it-all.

I can remember people’s birthdays and phone numbers from primary school (age 8 onwards) even having never used their number for over 20 years. I can tell when people are lying to me, I spot behaviour and tells in people and know how they will act. I can predict drivers behaviour really accurately, always know whatever another car on the road is going to do, could do this before I learned to drive. My dad says he was like that since a kid too,

People used to make me feel judgmental about it and sometimes I wouldn’t trust my instincts. As I got older, I learned never to ignore them and the only person I brag about that to is my husband because he gets it.
