Scenario

When your partner says you're like different people in different contexts

My partner and I have been together for three years and we've both noticed that I'm completely different at work versus at home versus with my family, and they're starting to say it feels like they're dating multiple people and they don't know which one is 'real.' We're trying to figure out if this is normal compartmentalization or if I'm somehow being inauthentic in our relationship.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The question of which version of ourselves is authentic becomes complicated when the people closest to us experience our multiple selves as disconnected or confusing.
