Interacting with someone very much like...

yourself. How’d that feel like?

Now now now, let’s not just get fixated on the goodness only. Someone like you as in same/similar tics and quirks, the good (which we’re epitome of), the bad (which we rarely acknowledge), and the ugly (which simply doesn’t exist for us) side of us?

Recently had to deal with someone whose social awkwardness, general buffoonery and mindlessness (ok fine! it was not to the same extent as my own) made me realize how much I must irritate people around me. Somehow I was thoroughly convinced that these quirks of mine must be rather endearing:whistling:…ahem…to those who are…err…enduring them. Let’s just say it’s the very opposite feeling.

What are some of your traits that if you had to put up with day in day out then you wouldn’t be too fond of yourself?

:hugs:

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

is the pink font and rainbow unicorn a consequence of this encounter? but at least you has nice hairs now, deer.

as for topic.. i find people like me fun as long as its not one-on-one. then it gets boring and awkward real fast unless we are partaking in some fun (halal) activity.

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

I’d have an amazing time with spending time with someone JUST like me, probably because despite our best intentions to meet up, we’d never manage to connect.

We’d both get lost getting there since our sense of direction sucks, if we did manage to get there - we’d both be late getting to where we were going since neither of us owned a watch.

On the other hand, we’d never argue since we’d both defer to each other, lest we offend the other - so it would be a relatively quiet meeting. The one upside - we’d probably both be dressed in head-to-toe purple since it was our favourite colour - so at least we’d appeal to each other esthetically.

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

if i came across someone exactly like me, i would kill them (or myself?) i know what a nuisance i am to mankind.. there’s not enough space in this world for the two of us.

alternatively, in the short run we would have SO MUCH FUN. can you imagine.. double the mocking and stupid jokes!?

contrarian - what are you doing (re: font colour and avi) it’s hurting my soul :frowning:

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

Someone like me?

(If you are easily offended, look away now). Reminds me of the time I was asked if I would rub my clone off. Mind blown.

so pinky :frowning:

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

It’s sad but I don’t think my conversations with another me would be too successful. It’s easy to misread me and therefore both of us could very quickly jump to wrong conclusions which would be aided by our short attention spans and the tendency to interrupt others, as well. Way to put my self-image to a reality check! Thanks.

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

Contrarian, what did you do? Astaghfirullah. Bring back the old Contrarian!
Your witty/sarcastic comments will be lost under the shadow of the pink colour and that sparkling avi :-/

On topic: if I met somebody who was very much like me, I would think the person is not very interested in the conversation. While that would not be the case.

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

Hmmm…Moi is impressed with refreshingly honest self-assessment. Keep it up kiddos!

Sweet.i.f sister did I ever complain about your avatar? :stuck_out_tongue: In case you didn’t notice, the avatar also sports a fairy plus there are falling stars that fizzle out once they reach the ground…such ethereal beauty!!! :wub: Still waiting for guidelines on the background setting.

Le I’ll change it once no ambiguity is left over my gender…I’ve been posting for more than a year and the doubts still linger. :teary1:

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

mera avatar meri shakal hai.. why would you complain about that :grumpy:

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

Um…ever considered putting a niqab over it? Just a suggestion

oh wait…I have to set pink fonts every time?

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

you need to do a 3 week cafe-only internship under kahuna motamota. and only then introduce pink font, etc.

Re: Interacting with someone very much like…

I’m a really socially awkward person so the chances of me getting along with someone are really low.
