Is it normal if people bring out a different side of me?
In psychology, they say it's both the social and personal that bring out who you are. It's the combination. I kind of don't want to believe that because social situations bring out sides I am not. Idk why they exist but whatever I portray doesn't define who I am. You are the only person who knows you best. And I know exactly who I am by myself. When people say they look at me like a b*tch, or innocent, its all these different things, I'm just like "that's just not who I am." But I do notice I'll come off as that when I'm around people. It's weird and irritating because its like I can't be myself around people. Not like I'm ashamed but literally, I can't seem to portray who I am socially. Sometimes I think I am and people perceive me differently. I totally go against my first statement of this post. Supposedly, when you are interacting, you discover a different self that is authentic. I don't believe it. I do discover this self that is not me at all.
