Frustrated, because a group of my friends know one of my headmates/median aspects firstoff through the character that she sprung out of. So when she shows herself through, people will jokingly tell me to stop "acting like my character". Would be easier except there's a bit of "median-ception" going on for lack of a better term. I created a character based on bits of my personality I liked but didn't get to express, the character diverged, and then sort of wove her way into my thoughts. I like her and I kinda like the spontaneous moments where I say things that she would want me to say without fully thinking about it.
But it always feels weird when friends call us out on it and tell me to cut it out, like I'm doing it consciously.
I don't know whether this is all me and I just absorbed part of what I wanted to be like, or if I am now sharing with an aspect who happens to be based off of a RP character. Either way, it's a bit uncomfy when friends suggest that it's frivolity. Even if it were, what's wrong with being silly sometimes? Figuring out my head is hard, and a bit of levity could be nice.
I'm not as stressed about this as I sound. For the most part I'm okay with saying I'm singlet-ish median-ish, and calling it good. I tend to enjoy the flexibility of categorization in my noggin and not worry a whole ton of a lot about whether tenants are me or not me or something in between; I just don't have a lot of people to angst to about stuff so when it's difficult I don't always know where to turn.
headmates?
