Hi, I have been a lurker for a while here. I have never gotten well with people. Most of the time I overstep our boundaries or the person I am getting along with just ends up taking advantage of me. This has been a problem running in my family for atleast 3 generations and now, quite frankly, I am tired of it.
So, what I am thinking of doing is making an AI model to interpret other’s behaviour. See whether they are being bored in a conversation with me, what they are feeling and other things, whether our relationship is unhealthy, etc. I have explored affective computing for the same and I am making progress on it. The issue is that most of them seem to focus on identifying emotions and not analyzing relationships.
I was hoping that someone can guide me to more resouces for the same. Sorry in advance if this is the wrong community for this question or if it seems rude.

You can’t apply computers to humans and expect good results. Period. Human made text is not easily parametrizable; much less someone’s manner of speaking or bodily expressions.
And human relationships as a whole, where at least two beings fundamentally incomprehensible to the machine interact, within a larger societal context that is equally incomprehensible? Acting like you can fit it into a neat model is peak computer science hubris.
And, in the end, it would only reinforce the preexisting notions of what is “healthy” or how others are feeling. I’m not sure that it applies to autistics as well as it does to neurotypicals. And I’m not certain if it applies to them either.
