Well, I made this topic, because I always saw people trying to be like other people and I don't think that it is a good thing.
They lost their own personality. People should be themselves, don't care what others say or think.
We should be different, special Wink .

some people have their own heros, or idols, they worship their heros, so they try to act exactly like them. that mostly happens to youth, teenagers.

Humans are social animals, so it is natural to want to copy the people in your social group or the group you want to belong to. You want to "fit in".
