What is a different way to say "see you tomorrow"?
"Looking forward to class tomorrow . . ." If she's blind, she's quite used to colloquial speech such as "see you tomorrow", or "do you see what I mean?". I highly doubt she'd be offended. Besides, you are saying that YOU will see HER tomorrow -- which is technically exactly true. You aren't saying, "You'll see ME tomorrow!".
What do you think about yourself that is completely different from the way other people see you?
People generally think I am very selfish and emotion-less person as I maintain a decent distance from people emotionally. Since I am always seen enjoying my own company, people think I am self sufficient and I don't need anyone to depend on.On the contrary, I have a lot of lonely times. I have very few friends. Sometimes I need to talk to someone and I have nobody to talk to. I miss having someone to depend on. I care a lot, love a lot but can't express well. I have distant myself from people because of some bad experience.
Do different people perceive world in the same way?
Forget for a moment the standard explanation of what is going on and start from scratch.If you were born a moment ago, knowing nothing, what would be the starting point? The “world” that is “perceived” by “you”?Nope. That’s already a thinking framework, a mental structure. Step further back.The starting point is an experience. Another experience. Another experience…Were there ever two identical, exactly the same experiences in your memory? I don’t think so. Even you do not “perceive the world” in the same way for more than a moment. Why would other people be any different?
Do people perceive me as I do? Do they see me in the same way as I see myself? I'm not talking about appearance.
Assuming you are socially well-adjusted and in good mental health the answer is no.You probably overestimate other people’s opinion of you by 20%. That is, unless you're severely depressed, in which case (sadly) your poor self-esteem probably matches the sense others have that you're not performing very well right now.Prior to the 1960s, the field of psychology held that an important aspect of mental health was an accurate sense of ones’ self and an objective, accurate sense of ones’ surroundings largely shared by others. That is, until studies showed that assumption proved weaker than anyone expected when it came to one thing: self-esteem.In one test, invitations were sent out to randomly selected healthy recipients, and to a few subjects known to be severely clinically depressed as well. Participants read a short essay and gave a brief presentaction to the group. They were then asked how well others had performed, as well as to guess what others had thought of them.After this experiment it became much harder to equate mental health with an accurate world view. The depressed people thought everyone would say they'd done a lousy job and they were spot on in that assessment. After all, they did do a lousy job.But what about the healthy people? The healthy people’s scores of one another were all over the board, as you'd expect. But they had one thing in common. They all over-estimated others opinions of their work by about 20%.There's a lot going on here, and trained professionals can chime in with the how’s and why’s. ive heard some very compelling explanations.But it's not at all clear that we should take for granted what is cause and what is effect in this dynamic. And it's not clear whether the depressed subjects would have had just as much bias (albeit in a negative direction) given a slightly different test.At the very least, the finding seems to serve as some confirmation that depression is debilitating and optimism can be an effective mechanism (if admittedly a bit deluded).To the pessimists, this is all proof that evertone who’s awoken to the harsh realities of life is naturally going to feel down.To the optimists, your well-adjusted, slightly inflated view of yourself, selected by evolution, is exactly what gives you the confidence to keep you trying in a tough world and eventually to make good things happen.On that matter, I ask that you be the judge yourself.
What you see in the mirror is what other people see?
I understand your question to be asking, "Is how I perceive my image in the mirror the way other people actually see me when they look at me, or do I look different to myself than I do to other people, the same way I look a little different in still photographs than I do in real life?" Here's a fun little experiment you can do to figure it out. Get two mirrors and set them up opposite of one another and at a slight angle, so that you can see yourself in profile in one mirror if you look into the opposite one. Do you look the same when you look at yourself reflected in two mirrors, from the side, as you do when you look at yourself straight on in one mirror? You don't. The way we see ourselves is shaped by a lot of things - the lighting, what we're wearing, how we feel that day, what our hair is doing, what angle we're looking at ourselves from... and just our general self image. Some days are better than others because you are in a better mood, and that mood really does affect your view of yourself. Other people don't have that distorted self-image lens to look through, so they see us differently than we see ourselves because they don't have that "Ugh I'm so ugly" or "Wow I'm hot" bias, depending on the day.
Do people see me as the camera does or the mirror?
Nah, I think the mirror is much closer to how people see you. Cameras freeze your motion in a way no one ever -- ever -- sees in life. That's why there are so many bad pictures of everybody. If you pause a video, even a video where someone looks good, you can find a million stills where they look awful, like if they are talking or eating or even just blinking. Go with how you look in the mirror. Really. That is way closer to how other people see you. Though you're probably still are harder on yourself than others. But just dismiss bad photos of yourself. No one sees you that way. Only believe the good ones. I'm serious. People think some people are very photogenic. Well, some are, it's true. But mostly it's about control of distribution, so to speak. That is, don't let out the bad ones and everyone will think you always look good in pictures. But, yeah, go with how you look in the mirror; believe the mirror.
Do you look the same in the mirror as you do to other people?
i agree with Suzanne. I do not think that you look too much different in the mirror and seen by someone else but i think in your own head you will look different because people are very self-critical so they see the worst things eg, they would pick out large hips or something that other people may not notice. i hope that makes sense! anyway apparently you look 20% nicer than what you think you look when you see yourself in the mirror...
Does a camera take a picture as other people see you?
No. They are similar and you can see a lot of people here describing some of the differences. But I would like to add a couple things.First, the still image is not the real time video that occurs when some one looks at you. Video isn't the same either. Instead each person's individual brain has to interpret the image they see why they see you. There is context there that cannot be dismissed. What they think about us. Our relationship to them. What kind of day they are having and what biases and preferences they have in their history and lives. A still image emphasizes certain things.I have photographed thousands of people and it is really interesting to see what they think about the images. It is usually in a beauty context and mostly of young women. I rarely share the same favorite shot they do. They are looking for certain things that fit into their standard of beauty. Sometimes, it even means considering some negative comment someone told then when they were in 8th grade. Sometimes their mom is there, and she has such an amazing view because she can still remember what her daughter looked like when she was 5 years old. Moms are way more likely to love the smiling shots. They want their children to be happy. So many people find their own smile awkward....but every one of your friends loves your smile...even if you have bad teeth! Context.Your vision of yourself is skewed. Everyone's is. We look in the mirror every day, which is a flipped view of ourselves, and we get used to this. We love repetition, just like that song you didn't like, but after weeks on the radio, you are humming it. we do the same thing with our looks, and like that mirror image. But all the people around us have the same effect going on when they see us, but it is a different look than we see and they get used to that.I think it would be amazing to take like 100 photos of us and ask everyone we know which shot we look the prettiest in, which one the sexiest, the nicest...etc. I think we would be shocked with what people we love would pick. We have all experienced this to an extent when we are shocked at what one of our friends thinks is a great photo of us.
Do we look the same to people as we do in mirrors?
Best way to tell what you actually look like is to stand by a wall mirror, and hold a hand mirror, look at the reflection of yourself on the wall mirror, through the hand mirror(basically you will be looking into the handmirror in the end, be sure to angle it towards the wall mirror). That would be like looking at yourself through someone else's eyes. (Hope this wasnt confusing) No, we usually dont see ourselves exactly the same as we actually look in a mirror. Why this is, I dont know(I'm sure theres an explaination, I'll go look it up), and it sucks. =P And photos arent always a good tool either. Since it de-animates you, and catches you at different angles, it's not always really acurate either. Hope this helps.
How does seeing things from a different perspective benefit you?
Seeing things from a different perspective is a way to understand why other people act the way they do. If you know why a person acted and then you try and see things from how they saw it, then you will have a better understanding of why they acted that way. This will benefit you in many ways. If you understand how another person behaves the way they do you will be able to get along with them much easier. Also it will help you recognize your own faults in how you view things and can help you improve yourself as a person.
