Cliché but, why do people have to be fake to get by? Why not just be real, and be yourself. It's what I've done throughout my life so far, and I'd say I'm pretty good. Some people like to make themselves appear like someone they are not though, simply to be cool with everyone. What's up with that? Personally, I'm not trying to mess with it, if I ask it's only to understand that mentality. Is it beneficial? Why have people like you for something your not, or is it the real you coming through?
It's confusing to those you are closest to. Frankly, it pushes them away too.
Where are you in life? Are you successful? Are you genuinely happy? What define fake may simply be an alternate version of that person's actual personality prompted to achieve higher status thus getting closer to life in comfort. When is comes to using that alter ego on average people, practicing simply sharpens your skill for appropriate situations like business meetings. Calling some fake is an insult, rather call them magicians.
ReplyDeleteit confuses those closest to them when they tell them one thing and do the other, magician.
