No one has ever seen the real me. I hide everything that goes on with me from people and only let people know about certain things once I have assessed every aspect of them and have considered it a safe topic to let out. My life is a conspiracy all in itself. People meet me, talk to me, think they get to know me, and continuing thinking that way

When you never let anyone see the "real" you, and continually hide and cover it up, I think that sounds very much like a "person" action. You do it to protect yourself from others, perhaps because of traumatic past experiences. But when you never let anyone else in, when you lie to mask how you feel and what you've been through, that doesn't seem like a very caring action.

Personally, I think living as a person would be awfully lonely.

I never claimed that such behavior wasn't like that of a person. However, there is another way to interpret such behavior. What if the subject only shows each person the type of character they want to see? The subject allows each person he "knows" to form a untrue world themselves and simply acts it out for the ease and benefit of these other people. In a way, that would be like sacrificing one's own life so that others need not worry
