Electron Affinity is not far different from Electronegativity. It’s just that Electronegativity is the impulse of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons (or electron density) towards itself and is much more often associated with molecules rather than each atom and the values could vary to some degree, although a single value is commonly used for most calculations in inorganic chemistry whilst Electron affinity is a fixed value of an individual atom.
What makes studying people difficult is that you are yourself. You will always be different from other humans, so studying them naturally takes you out of your comfort zone
