>>83285842
You are not satisfied with your life or you are undecided which direction you should take in life so to make yourself better,you imagine yourself in another reality without strings attached. You probably wanted to become an actor but you either have no talent or self confidence.
>>
>>83285887
what made you change
>>
>>83285842
Easy, the fact that there's a character that acts that way and people accept that character makes you comfortable because you don't have to act in a way that you don't know how people will react, you just act like that character and assume it's a tried and tested way to act.
>>
>>83285842
Nothing unnatural about it. Its an evolutionary trait. You are supposed to grow out of it once you get your own defined personality, but if you havent experienced a lot of stuff then youre still kind of a blank slate. At least thats my theory.

>You are supposed to grow out of it once you get your own defined personality, but if you havent experienced a lot of stuff then youre still kind of a blank slate. At least thats my theory.

You are on to something. I emulated a lot of characters until I got some experience in life. For example,I grew up idolizing gangsters and this happened.

>go to the gym
>train with one of the goons who works for this loan shark
>he is busting my balls and I figure out I could do the same and I make a gay joke about him
>guy gets angry and people actually have to stop him from lunging at me
>tells me he is gonna torch my car and find out where I live (the guy had issues)
>they get him out of the gym


I was fucking terrified. I parked my car a few blocks away and I couldn't sleep the first night,thinking that every sound is him. I came back to the gym after a week and the guy just ignored me. Still,I found out I wasn't cut out for any kind of criminal activity and I stopped emulating gangsters. Thanks for reading my blog.

I have a friend who emulates Ray Donovanesque tough guy and it's cringey in the original sense of the word

>wears suits and shirts everywhere even though he is unemployed
>always acting busy,talking about deals and investing
>says he keeps a bat in his car cause you never know who you crossed
>talks about "eliminating problems" and other similar metaphors (he was never in a fight)

The funny thing is that when he watches a movie or a show about a good character,he alters himself to be like the character. For example when he watches a romantic comedy he says he was always faithful to his gf but if he watches something with a promiscuous character he changes his tune that he is "different night different chick,gf doesn't even know about it". The sad part is that I fell for his shtick when I first met him and slowly began to realize why he only has friends for a few months before they ditch him.

some may display thos behavior but anyone is affect negatively by movies, our brains are not set up to deal with all this information

You should never bend over your back to be nice,never. People will start to hold it against you whenever you stop. I am not saying be an asshole in fact if it's not troubling you,be nice,just don't go way out of your way.
