I am very new to socializing. As a child I spent it in the hospital and I never got to socialize with healthy people(emotionally) to develop skills.
29 is the first year I got to socialize and make friends. I made some major faux pas because I didn’t know they were wrong at the time, I do now(nothing illegal).
I’m getting real close to this couple my age and I was wondering if I can ask her if she is willing to tell me if I am saying or doing anything inappropriate to her or her husband?(With her husband I let it be even though he’s sweet and affectionate(verbally) to everyone).
Or tell an older lady (she’s 40) my situation and ask her to look out for me? Such as ask the lady my age if I’m doing anything inappropriate and she’d tell me instead? She’s close to that couple too.
PLEASE BE NICE! No judgementals!
Update:
I’m 24 by the way
Update 2:
I know there are some of you who are against being friends with members of the opposite gender who are married. I’m not. As long as you keep it strictly platonic and is never alone with that person intentionally you’re fine.
Update 3:
The 40yr old lady knows my situation, my mistakes and everything. Not the couple my age.

Your situation is hard to understand without more details but if the couple knows about your situation and lack of social skills and they are understanding people, you should mention to them that if you do anything unacceptable, they should consider your situation and note that it’s not intentional.
