pandd, how come then I'm able to infer from body language without problem, yet my ToM is horrible?

Because being able to figure out body language is helpful in the general figuring out of humans, and this is one skill/competency that contributes to the development and application of ToM, but it is not sufficient to constitute adequately fluent and comprehensive species appropriate ToM skills in and of itself.
