Is it normal to feel like a different person around different people?

I hate how I feel like a totally different person when I'm around certain people. It's like I'm happy and feel good about myself then when so and so walks in, I transform into someone I don't like. Yes, the people I end up feeling different around I happen to not be so fond of so maybe that's a factor? What does this say about what I go through regarding feeling like a different person? Its annoying because I turn into this person they think I am which I don't like so it's as if Im proving they're right about who I am. So for ex, they think I'm this stuck up girl who's really girly when really I'm not, however, when Im around them, I feel like that so that doesn't help my case. When I'm around people I do like, I know who I am, they treat me like the person I really am. Could I like those pple because they see the real me? and could I dislike those pple who make feel different because they see a false perception of me? At the end of the day, I don't like how I feel around certain people and wish I can get rid of them for that reason. But unfortunately I can't. It is a pretty psychological disaster that I've been going through for a while now.

    "I am not who you think I am. I am who I think you think I am"...or something along those lines.

        You are the projection of what you believe others think of you. If you think everyone loves you, you will project yourself as a lovable person. If you think people think you're stuck up, you may find yourself fitting the role. The more you get to know who you really are, the more you will show your true colors and perceive to change others' perception of you, hence you can be yourself more easily around anyone.

        On the other hand, perhaps you just aren't as sociable around these people you dislike, which would make you come off as stuck up.
