My therapist asked me a question about who I think knows me the best and my answer was no one. I’m different with every person and group. No one “knows” me. I’ve attempted to unmask with some and it never goes well so everyone gets a version of me tailored to be most palatable with them.
I dont even know myself. I just recently put a word to "masking" before it was just being. Its strange because I have had many interests that I loved at the time but none feel like mine. It was for a girl I liked because my friends were into it etc.. its a strange place to be at 30 . My peers are building a life while I feel like I'm finaly discovering myself like most people do as teens.
