What do you do when another person do exactly what you do?

Question

In short, he/she copies you. He/she would join the same club as you, says the same things you say, takes the same thing you take... and no, that person is not a kid. Exclude the confrontation option please!

Answer 1

well i think there have been pretty weak crime and thriller movies that started this way :) seriously now it can be a problem because that person might be extremely envious of u, might be going through an identity crisis, might have very little self-esteem or might be plainly obsessed from other reasons. u should try to compliment and bring to focus that persons qualities which u don't have in common and try to make he or she realize that he/she is a unique special individual

Answer 3

Since you don't want to confront them, there isn't much else to do. You could call the police like others have said, but if that other person is stalking you, that may trigger something bad inside of them & they may try to do some evil thing to you! Just ask them why are they in the same classes, clubs, etc as you are in. Maybe it is just a cowincidence!

Answer 4

Well, excluding confrontation, you could always call the police and tell them said person is stalking you

However, you would have to provide proof of it. In all truths, confrontation is the best solution.

Answer 5

Mimicry is the most sincerest form of flattery.
They obviously like you or at least your style. I would ask them what things they like to do and that type of thing. Once they have to start thinking for themselves then they will hopefully roll with it.
Encourage them to do something on their own/be a leader of something. Or maybe suggest that they get involved in something that you are not in. (or a sneakier type of thing would be to suggest that you are joining a club or going on a trip and then just never actually do it...hopefully they will do it and stay involved even tho you aren't (but don't lie...just say "I think I am going to do ____, maybe."))
Try not to be mean or reject them. If they look up to you that much it will crush them.
Good Luck.

Answer 6

Be honoured that someone else finds you a leader and get over yourself at the same time.
Worry about something more important like how you can lead them into activities that give them indipendence and courage.

Answer 7

I would become, motionless, speachless, and keep my routine as private as I could. If and when this person is around you, I would be cold as a winter in Alaska, showing and giving them nothing but cold blank stares. I would not justify their actions with an answer even. They would totally not excist in my book. As John Cena says "you can't see me"! and I definitely can't see you .But seriously, get a restraining order. LOL

Answer 8

You sit the person down and talk to them. Tell them how you feel and that perhaps it would be best if they would just be themselves.

Answer 9

be myself and do whatever i want to
although i know from psychology that this 'another person' likes you if s/he do exactly what you do
you may have to consider whether you like this 'another person' or not
and then act accordingly

Answer 10

I would think of something that they would never do and then do it. It the quicks way to get them to stop.
