I have about a thousand fatal flaws, though none of them have actually killed me yet. And one is that no matter who I am talking to I imitate them. I subconsciously turn into them as I talk to them, their mannerisms, and the things they talk about, the way they talk, their accent, even who they talk to. I know I do it, but I can't stop, It happens without me noticing. So I spend my life sounding exactly like everyone else does and just for once, I would like to meet someone who I can talk to in the same voice then the one that I talk to myself in, and the one that's in my head.
