You have different personalities for each friend group? Wut.
A little bit. Different groups might engage more with different aspects of my personality, so I find myself naturally emphasizing different parts of myself accordingly. Code switching isn't that unusual, I don't think.
I certainly don’t let aspects at work come to play in the bedroom. Or vice versa.
Same again when having parents over.
You guys have friend groups?
While I can't speak from experience, I would imagine this isn't terribly uncommon for black people in America at least (and other people of color).
There's still a lot of systemic racism over here, so unfortunately sometimes you have to mask who you are just to approach being treated the same as white people.
I've heard plenty of reports from African Americans that in their Black friend group/school group that they can be critized for not sounding Black enough. One famous example is Neil deGrasse Tyson, who felt like might be disappointing people by pursuing academia over wrestling.
Everyone do . Not talking about friends group respectively but in a way people have different personalities with different people like do you act/say/do things the same way you do with your parents and teachers , colleagues and your boss , your girlfriend/boyfriend and your distant friends , your best friends and your distant cousins ? No we all have different personalities when we are with different people .
you even use the same name across friend groups!?
Different interfaces or speaking styles, maybe. Sometimes literally different languages
To an extent, think work friends versus the kinda friends you meet at a concert, or at the gym. It's not necessarily a "different" personality as much as shifting behavior and topics a bit. In short, I'm gonna talk a little different around my young engineering friends vs the guys I've known since high school.
people would think I'm mentally ill if I acted around them like I act around my closest friends so yeah I kinda do. I do heavily suspect I have mild autism though
I'm beginning to suspect that I might have some autistic tendencies too... why are we all on Lemmy?
