Member Topic: How authentic are you?

As a person, do you value authenticity or do you try to fit in with the crowd? Do you think being authentic is going out of fashion or is it something you strive to incorporate into your life?

Tough question I know, but would love some real, raw, and honest answers.

I have no need to fake. I am an honest person. If you accept me with my flaws .. well n good or you are welcome

to move on..

Authentic. Whether someone likes or dislikes me, I’ll never change myself to fit in with others. 🥰

As a teenager I tried to fit in, tried to change myself for my GFs. One fine day I realized it’s not worth it… 😆

Nowadays I’m 100% moronic self… 👍🏼

I tried the entire “fit in” nonsense once. Didn’t work.

Pretending to give a crap about people and their garbage is way too much work.

For one I don’t think trying something new means being inauthentic.

I can't change myself for anything and I never tried to fit in even in my teenage years

None...

I don't know what I am doing and why I am doing it...If not being me, then who I am following..

Just, I don't feel myself, nothing feels authentic atm, except IF and my sleep!

(Okay, I know this, my laziness...unless, I get rid of this, I am not going to feel me...Yeah, even in this topic....this has taken over my everything!!! )

I never do anything which I don't like or comfortable with.

Never "tried" to fit in with anything. If the crowd accepts me, then it's all good. If they don't, then it does feel bad and lonely sometimes, but still not going to change myself for that.

Mixed bag here.

I'm generally myself with people I know will forgive me.

Can't pull that nonsense at work. 😆
