Here ye! Here ye! I have been left in charge of this mind and will stand in court of law.
You know those times when your mind tries to take over your well built reputation? They say pretense is hard to keep up but it seems like my behavior (for lack of a better word) has a mind of its own around different people.
I come out with certain character traits around certain people that surprises me. Often, oh so very often it is a case if foot in mouth disease, am saying these things and thinking in my head "shut up, shut up why the hell are you saying that???" but does my mouth listen oh no no no it doesnt it defiles me as if to say "this party has stated and there is no stopping until the day breaks".
On the other hand, dear lord, I become the most uninteresting bore there could be with nothing to say and am telling my brain "you read a 500 page book in three days you have something interesting to say ....speak now. speak now" but does it listen to me? definetly not! Boy, could I continue with these ridiculous situations I get myself into. You are thinking whatever we all have that problem but wait, I 'll get to it
When the different groups of people now come together in one, my brain decides; muhahaaha you are going to be a compltely different person here too. It doesnt strike a balance between all my different extremes so at least each group can see a degree of the me they know. One would have thought this would have been the easiest choice but my mind, oh my wild mind chooses to be Miss Ks. You know how the equilibrium constant K becomes a new constant Ka when K is multiplied by the concentration of water? Yea that new constant around a mix of different people is Miss Ks. The oddity that tries to be friends with everyone, that is loud and often obnoxious and supposedly having fun and once the group disperses, Miss Ks disappears and am left with the questions "you were kinda different, were you drinking last night?" and all the other explain yourself questions you can think of. I have no explanations and no capability of recreating Miss Ks but I don't think I want to recreate this character on a daily basis, it will be far too exhausting.
I would probably need to put my mouth under lock and key every time I go out just to make sure I don't end up getting a slap these days for when Miss obnoxious decided to show her face again .....

Having started to read a bit of psychology literature recently maybe it's because you're keen, even subconsciously, to have a certain persona around certain people. Well that's my guess at any rate
LOL! That used to happen to me...I agree with the first post, it is psychology related (but then, what isn't?). Anyways, used to have that personality change thing until I withdrew into myself. Became totally selfish with regards to a lot of things...didnt try to impress anyone but myself, kept only friends that made me happy and stopped pretending to be a part of a 'clique' or whatever they call it because I am different and it did wonders for me...definitely killed my Jekyll and Hyde persona :)
Might help you to meditate on possible reasons why you are like that and see if you can isolate the reason and address it...otherwise, you might have to learn more maths to solve the equation ;)
Interesting post.
lol learn more maths to solve the equation ... i guess there is a bit of conforming there ... tryint to fit in and all that snd one must grow to be content and confident in being one's self and one's self only
