Who can see (know) the real you?

Question

If parents see us as their children--yet know nothing of our love lives...friendships....

If friends see us as friends--but know nothing of how we are as children... as a student...or as a rival

If lovers see us as lovers--but know nothing of how we are when alone

If teachers see us as students--yet know nothing about our social lives...

Who can see us for who we really are---if individually, we can only literally see a reflection of ourselves and believe what we want to believe about ourselves?....

Answer 1

Does it really matter?

Answer 2

Live with a guy for awhile and eventually all of your true colors will come out and if he can handle it and still loves you for who you are then marry him. But if he runs away because of the way you are then at least God knows and understands you and maybe accepts it

Answer 3

No one can fully know the real you. But it's not like parents and friends only see one side of a person, especially if they interact with the other people in your life. Like, parents can be both parents, and friends to their children. Lovers, if they were in it for the long run, would get to see many other sides of you, as well.

Answer 4

simple....join all the things that other people know about you and you will truly know who you are...ur a  child...a lover...a friends...a student...all mixed with that reflection of urs :)

Answer 5

Real is defined on a case by case basis.  Each individual makes the call about how much is offered for gleaning.

Answer 6

I think this can work in two respects.  

First of all, I think people can get to know and see the real person if we are willing to share that part of ourselves with them.  In our lives, I think we pick and choose who we want to let in because they have some sort of meaning on the inside.  

But also I think it depends on whether the person in front of us has an inquisitive mind to seek out who we are.  

Unfortunately, there are people who we would love for them to make just a little effort to see who we are, and yet... their eyes and heart are closed.

Thanks for reading!

Answer 7

God

Answer 8

   In the religious aspect God sees all...but in the material world, I believe we are all alone...sometimes we don't even see our self as we really are. But sometimes, the lucky ones...the really lucky ones find their soul mate...and I truly believe they do exist. And the soul mate can feel your thoughts...know your heart, and see your dreams.

Answer 9

I think that everyone can see the real you or me if we are putting out a true picture of who we are at all times. If we are not putting on masks and hiding our real and true selves.

Parents can see and do know the real you or I the same way. If we are not hiding ourselves.

Our lovers especially can see and know the real us if they are true lovers and not just a lay.

If no one can see or know the real you, then you are not being true or real to yourself about who you really are.
