I've thought about that "representation" concept when listening to younger people talk about relationships. Like there's that point when your bf/gf kind of exists in relation to you, like a sidekick to a main character on a show, and then you start to realize that you're a sidekick on their show as well. And then sometimes you learn that your role is not at all what you guessed, which can be good or bad. I also think about this concept in relation to villains in movies and politics and stuff. It feels like a good compassion-building exercise.

I'm sure there's some solid philosophical theory on it all. To me, it's mostly testament of how involved in my own perceptions I am. Namely, because I"m horribly involved in my own thoughts/dreams/imagination. Forever the lonely kid at recess.
I'm glad you're here, helping me build compassion.
