Dilemma: Is it still flattery if I’m starting to feel weird?

This week’s dilemma:

“I think she’s kind of trying to become me?”

In this minisode, we respond to a listener who’s found herself in an unexpectedly uncomfortable situation at work: someone new on the team is admiring her… a little too closely. From mimicking outfits and mannerisms to repeating catchphrases and hovering around her social circle, it’s all starting to feel less flattering and more… unsettling.

So what do you do when admiration crosses into imitation? Is it narcissistic to notice or a boundary that needs protecting? If you’ve ever felt like someone was borrowing your personality without asking, this one’s for you.
