This is happening to my leaf. Does this look like spider mite damage or could it be something else?

That new growth looks a little rough. Not sure what's wrong with it, but looks like an adjustment needs to be made somewhere. Maybe over watered?
 
Dont think so i've leaned from overwatering in the past so i water not much. I just clipped off the leaf because it was an eye soar

Those little plants use very little water. You can typically go a long time between watering at that point, so if you're sure it's not that, I couldn't tell you. It may be fine.

It actually just looks like leaf damage, from being moved around. The edges don't look like something, like a caterpillar, has been munching on it. This happens all the time. If you start seeing this happen across several leaves, then you may have a critter crisis :)
 
It's very common and nothing to do with pests. I never figured out why it happens but I'm sure someone on here will know.my best guess was some sort of necrosis from heat.nothing to worry about anyway unless you've found caterpillars or such under the leaves

Yea im on the 5th floor in an apartment building so pests like catipillars are scarce.Its weird but never became a problem, its just an eye soar
 
Yeah I see it periodically and thought it was sumat munching but over the years never found anything lol just something that happens now and again, maybe clip the damaged bit with a pair of scissors and tidy it up. That's what I do mate
