The many versions of you in other people's heads

Original: Everyone you've ever met has a version of you living in their head. And it probably isn't the real you. That line lands

A reflection on identity is striking a chord online: everyone you know holds a version of you in their mind, and it rarely matches who you actually are. The example being shared is a grandmother who saw one image of a young man while his parents saw another, showing how differently the same person can be perceived by the people closest to them.

Why now: unclear

She saw the smart, handsome, capable boy. Your parents saw the dummy. # Music # Books # PopCulture Say more in… · social_stelle · 2
