Do you think you would like yourself if you met yourself?

Yes. I am silly, quirky, loyal and have a strong moral compass. I faced far more adversity than anyone would suspect and didn't let it make me bitter and didn't let it break me. There are countless things I wish I could improve about myself and there are so many mistakes I make in parenting and life, but I take responsibility for my actions and I apologize with sincerity and try to improve. I am full of flaws, but my heart is in the right place.

I wish I could say yes, but no. I don’t like most people, so it’s nothing personal 😂

😭😭😭 No - I wish! I couldn’t handle my neurological disorder in a friend. All of my friends are organized, responsible, diligent left-brained people who are also patient, non-judgmental, and able to not sweat the small stuff. I am not naturally inclined towards of any of these traits, but I aspire to be more like these wonderful people!!!!!

I think I would as I am a curious person and friendly. People gravitate to me and want to be more friend. But I am not very social so I am not good at the follow up (eg, I get invited to a lot of things but don’t often go).

The older I get, the more I keep to myself. So probably no.

Of course. I’m the only one who gets me .

I think I would like myself. I'm an all-around nice person. This past week a couple of people that I deal with online were starting a huge war with each other. These fights can get ugly and get people permanently banned from the online group. So I jumped in and did my best to divert them away from the fight. Neither of them realized what I was doing and they ended up sort of mad at me. Oh well. I think they're both nice people but on this day they rubbed each other the wrong way. Anyway, I like nice people, so I would probably like myself.

I'd probably think I have a great sense of humor.

Yes I would. I am funny and friendly and also a good friend to those who reciprocate.

I don't see why not? I'm a good person by default.

[Anonymous]

Immediately? Yes. I'm charming as hell and people gravitate toward me.

Long term? No. I generally dislike being around people and eventually it shows. I don't dislike people, really, I just get really worn out and eventually I can be pretty hard to be around.

Do you remember the Seinfeld episode where he dated the female version of himself?

I think I'd find myself neurotic but fun, and enjoyable in small doses.

That’s not the question OP asked though. (And it’s an interesting question!)

I love myself, but I don’t think if I’d just met me I’d love me.

I’m smart and thoughtful and love other people in my heart, but I’m not always outwardly friendly because I like to keep to myself.

Hell no.
