Imitator's game

Lavonne 2022-04-21 08:01:09

There is a category of imitators in this world.
They are affected by various factors and eventually choose to become an imitator.
The imitators are easy to distinguish. For example, if you have a friend who "talks to people and talks to ghosts," he appears to be a source of choice on the outside, but on the inside, he is an imitator. He is imitating the conversational thinking of the other party in the conversation, and may even imitate the other party's taste of eating and swiping the phone in order to close the relationship. Or if there are one or more friends who have made friends with a foreigner or talked with a rich male friend, the imitator will immediately hook up with the foreigner around him and announce it invisibly on the Moments of Friends or other social platforms. It is worth noting that the character of the imitators is extremely unstable, which is the legendary unreliable. In addition, there are more female imitators than men. To give an example, a friend of mine was living with his girlfriend. After getting married, he found that the other person was not what he thought or was not what he usually saw. The friend attributed this incident to "the other person thinks too perfect." ". But the more important internal reason is that his girlfriend is an imitator. This woman is imitating the perfect woman in her own eyes, but imitating can only be achieved from a long distance. When the relationship between two people is close, such as getting married or living together, the imitator will be exposed. The usual performance is irritability, boring and speechless getting along with each other. Changes in behavior style, the last stage is derailment --- showdown divorce. Unfortunately, my friend's life after marriage completely followed the line of female imitators. Female imitators found new objects to imitate outside, and began to look for excuses and ways to file for divorce. I’m sure that imitators will not be happy, because imitation will eventually be suspected and seen through as the distance between the two people advances. Female imitators will abandon their current identity again like the male murderer in the movie. Find the next character she wants to imitate.
Put aside the psychology of reality and talk about movies. The male protagonist is a typical imitator, constantly looking for new interpersonal relationships, new social roles, and imitating the roles he sees. However, as time accumulates, he will inevitably abandon his existing identity, status, and interpersonal relationships, and start anew new life. Such a man is a scum even if he is not a killer. The male protagonist, just like the female imitator I mentioned above, will abandon his wife, husband, and children, look for new characters that attract her/his, and continue to live. This category of people also has a common feature, relying on their parents but rejecting them. Because the imitator needs a reference to constantly warn his true identity when imitating others, and the parents are her/his objective reference. Many comments say that children are a panacea. I go! Do you understand psychology in these comments? Even if there are children, husbands, and wives, imitators will abandon them.
The last nonsense: Please be yourself, be a true yourself, find true feelings, and love your true self.
