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.

    It all depends on who you are hanging out with/talking to. If you were talking to a priest or pastor you would behave very respectfully and officially wich would make you seem like a well-mannered put-together person VERSUS if you were hanging out with your rascal buddies where an old lady would get annoyed on how loud and obnoxious you guys are.
    It all depends on the situation/people

    • It does depend but I'm starting to realize I'm a different person when it comes to everyone and that person is not me. If only people can see who I am when I'm by myself or maybe I am and they just don't like me. I like me and it sucks that they don't find me interesting like I do.
