When someone asks you if you know yourself, you can't give the real answer. You can only sit there and wonder who you really are. We're multi-faceted individuals, consisting of different bits and bobs that we've collected over the years. We behave differently around different people, a little like chameleons. I say this because I find myself needing to reinvent myself.
For the last two years, I have built myself to be the ideal girlfriend for him. I took on computer games, liked the bands that he introduced me too, watched television programmes that he liked or suggested. I started using the same words and mannerisms as him. It's not a bad thing and I am in no way complaining because I like the fact that I can appreciate computer games, or that I am now into House MD, or the fact that I can now name each singer of the Backstreet Boys by recognising their voices. The question is, out of all the things and mannerisms that I've picked up, what do I keep? What do I throw out?
