I’ve never had a head for social norms, and I don’t know where the OK area of Googling someone ends and the bad area of stalking them begins. http://www.slate.com/articles/life/dear_prudence/2017/01/dear_prudence_my_boss_is_so_awful_should_i_tell_people_not_to_apply.html?via=rubric_recirc_recent I’ve never had a head for social normsはどのような意味でしょうか?よろしくお願いします

have a head for something というイディオムは 「理解力がある、処理能力がある」 といった意味を持っているようです (下記 URL の辞書による)。  社会的な規範の許容範囲について教えていただきたく思います。ある人物についてどの範囲までならググっても差し支えなくて、どのくらいからはストーキング行為とみなされるのでしょうか。 直訳だと日本語の文として面白くないので、やや意訳してみました。
