do U act differently in different places?

Question

for me I'm kinda quiet at school but outside I'm outspoken :)

Answer 1

Yes.
Same as you, unless I'm with my friends.
If I'm with them, i talk, if I'm not, its as if i wasn't there.
Outside of school, i talk more, I'm not afraid to do things, ect.

Answer 2

Yes. Because of all of society's little traps and Moral rules...I would never act like me away from my friends. If i was me 100% I would never get a job, or anything else. The world has a certain view they want to see, and if you dont give in, sometimes...you just have to give up. BUT THAT BEING SAID...once your established in life and people know that you are full of potential or whatever ur trying to sell (lol) THEN be yourself. :) just gotta make sure the foundation is up before u can paint the walls i guess. :)

Answer 3

Sure. I behave differently depending on where I am. I'm certainly not the same in work as I am at home. Same goes for church or the movies or bowling etc. I mean,I'm always me-but I can be reserved or boisterous if the occasion calls for it. You should see and hear me at a basketball game. You'd never know I was the same subdued nurse that you'd see at the hospital.

Answer 4

I'm like that too when I was in school. Now, you have to say something when it needs to be said. For example, at work, if you notice something wrong, you have to say something about it and not just keep quiet. You have to back up what you say and be true to it. That's what I have been doing now. But ofcourse, there is a time and place for everything.

Answer 5

there are places i've got self assurance freer e.g south of eire to north of eire crossing the border is distinctive as is going over the sea to england - it type of feels like the border organic or synthetic is a sign to act in yet in a distinctive way join the hot set of human beings - i detect some places depressing and others jolly - I havent lived in my abode city for fifty years and bypass to hardly yet when I do I merely drink all of it up the accents the smells the feel

Answer 6

Hopefully everyone does. My behavior is different when I go to church or a sports event. In church I am docile and meditative. At a sports event I am loud and jumping up and down if my team is doing well. If I behaved in the opposite manner people would think me a big jerk.

Answer 7

Of course I act differently in different places. We all have different "persona" The word "persona" literally means "mask". We know which "mask" to put on for each situation we are in. We wear a different "Mask" when we are with our friends, or with our parents, at school, or at church. People with psychosis don't always know how to do this well, or sometimes they do it TOO well.
(The little bit of psychology I remember from college)

Answer 8

Of course. Different atmospheres call for different etiquette behavior. I certainly would not act the same at a formal dinner vs. a backyard BBQ.

Answer 9

You'll grow out of it. I did. There was a time in my life when I couldn't have my mom and my friends and my work friends in the same place because I didn't know how to act around all of them at once.

Answer 10

I am the same way. I think it is normal. There are different situations where it is appropriate to behave a certain way. Also sometimes you just don't feel comfortable with absolutely everyone you meet. That's ok.

Answer 11

Yes, I think it is all relative - we all act differently somewhat at least - around family, friends, for school, for work. There are many masks to the human psyche.
