Catfish Princess

I have stumbled across a cycle that appears to keep happening to me. This is that, I'll meet someone and I'll talk to them, then when we've known each other for awhile I'll find out something about him and kind of adopt it. For example, when I first met a Mr. Donovan Marshall.
The first thing I noticed about Mr. Marshall were his unusual dressing habits, that drew me in, but when I actually started talking to him, I found out that he liked D&D. This RPG was something I had been interested in when I was in middle school. When I found out that he liked it, I went home and started reading through all my old manuals. That made it easier to converse with him, because I hadn't really been playing.
There are so many adopted habits and hobbies of mine that spawned from my previous relationships. I've realized that I'm made of mostly other people. When I really think about it I get depressed. Am I really not unique? Well, to tell the truth I don't think there's any such thing as unique anymore. If there's one thing I took with me from Mr. Hall's class its that nothing is original because the Greeks have already done it.
I've seen all kinds of personalities and messed up lives that I can be only semi-comfortable in my own skin. I can say, 'At least I'm not as cliche or fucked up as that person.', but even then I'm just using other people to make myself feel better.
Maybe I'm just an eclectic pool of other people's ideas and quirks, with nothing original about me but the DNA in my chromosomes.
