Me: I can be incredibly gullible or very suspicious; very expulsive or extremely careful......very extravert and very introvert.......etc... I can be very honest or very private and keep to myself etc......it disconcerts people........me too at times......any body the same....(I would not call split personality.......just with what and whom I interact with)

i think I was born that way anyway.....but the environment definitely plays on one's personality's development.
Same old question:nature vs nature..

There's lots of theories on this in Sociology. There's the idea that we are always affected by the social world around us, and our surroundings largely determine our actions. Thus, in every different situation, there will be a different part of you in action.
Irving Goffman's dramaturgical theory is another good thing to think about...an idea that we have front stage and back stage selves. You're only your true self when you're on the backstage, by yourself...once you enter a social situation you're on the front stage where your actions will always be affected by others' expectations of you...
there's lots of other theories out there. I think we choose who we want to be, and our surroundings somewhat change us more than realize...

Yes I do. I think there's the basic me - not my body, not my emotions, not my mind, but some basic me and core beliefs about life and how I want to be as I go through it. Then there's my mind and emotions, which sometimes take me way away from the person I really want to be. I constantly monitor them with my basic me. Sometimes I tell my mind to be quiet, or that I don't want to hear about this right now.

Every person has two or more sides to them. The one side that is normally seen, is the side your willing to share the other is the side that no one is supposed to see but it pokes its thoughts out every once in awhile. The problem with this is, that sometimes we act a certain way to keep in our own created steroe type. My theroy is, you are who you let yourself be, and if you have that wild side to you let it go or become that wild side. Cause if its there, there is no reason to keep it hidden, life is short, so kick ***, and be free.....

There are times that I am good but there are occassions that I can be bad. For example, I am good when in the office or church but I can be rude when I am in crowd of trouble makers.
It depends upon the situation, the people you are dealing with and where you are.

People are multi-faceted. There are many aspects to a persons personality. Just like sometimes you are laughing and happy, other times you lose your temper. Nothing to really be concerned about unless you really go overboard. You are just human.

that depends on how you went to bed. did you have a bad day before you went to sleep, it could trigger a worse day the next time after you woke up. your brain never sleeps, try a wave or rain sound which you can buy, and go to sleep with it on playing , it will surprise you

Stop being modest... At least to SIDES. The one that wins shadows the rest. Freedom of choice is what you've got- Freedom from choice is what we want

I think there are two sides to everyone but how they handle it and their reactions to it makes the case different.
