This made me laugh, for obvious reasons of course. It is a straight forward question and so is the answer. Having said that, now you would be thinking what would you do, am I right? Now that we all are wondering what it would be like, let me point out this is a weekly prompt by #blogChatter and the purpose is to write a blog post on it. If I was any other person I pretend to be normally, I would just say “Yes” with a lot of attitude, of course, because attitude is ‘rad’ these days. Though I am not entirely sure what this rad means, no seriously what does it mean?
Took me for a socially challenged, didn’t you. Cool and Radical, it means. Rad is so fab, ain’t it? Anyhow. “Would you like you, if you met you?”. I bet everyone would have thought about this at one point of time. If not, now is the time. How do you think the conversation would go? What would you like to talk about? What would you do? Would you be amazed? Would you be awestruck? Would you pick up your phone and speak even when it doesn’t ring and get out of there? Or would you embark that day as the day of most awesome conversations? The questions just keep piling up, don’t they?
I do that everyday, I mean talk, for your information. I talk to myself, I have never actually felt the need for another person. Because I can’t talk. No, I can talk, but I can’t talk, to people, to new people. So, the next logical question would be “Since you know yourself, you would obviously talk to yourself, I mean the other you in different clothes, obviously, otherwise it would be very really awkward, like twins, grown up twins walking around in same pair of dress. Give me a minute to erase that image out of my head. I accidentally used the permanent marker while picturing it. It is not rubbing off easily. Damn. So, would I? Would I like myself? Hell no. I don’t need a fourth dimension character self of me to figure that out. I have a mirror, not the best in class but it sure as hell does work. And everyday’s job is to get a new mirror hoping that someday it will show myself a little better, you know with square jaws, a little subtle, broad shoulders, blue eyes, ripped body, six packs duh! and an awesome hair duo.
So, you are saying that when you say “Would you like you, if you met you” with so many yous, you mean to say that whether you would like your character, whether you would like your inner self, the attitude, the real you. I think I got the question quite loud and clear. Knowing me, why would I ever want to meet me let alone like another me.

Hahahahaha.. I couldn't stop laughing! Grown up twins, permanent markers! A fun read this was!
Hehe, thank you. 😀
I am glad I could make you laugh. 🙂
I feel you, my friend! I would never wanna meet me 😛 I would take up the phone and run away! 😀
haha… that was funny. Never really thought about it. huh….I should think about it.
Quirky as ever. And so much rad la! 😀 But I loved the bit about saying – there are so many yous. I too think that. I might like the smart me but would prefer gaining better looks, etc etc.
P.S I would love to meet you 😀
You could've a sparked the best-est friendship of all time had you decided to meet yourself.
You were just about to do that. So close. So. Close.
I wish that were the case. But knowing myself all my life, I would have to say otherwise.
Well, my bad, ain't it?
We like ourselves,that is why we do all our activities.If we don't like ourselves we would try to vacate the place.Don't feel strange to talk to strangers.They may also have the same delicacy.So one should break the ice and may it be you.Nice choice.
That is not messed up at all, because for starters you love yourself. Actually, you don’t even know how much that is. You couldn’t pick a number because no matter how much you loved yourself, you can’t quantify it in numbers. Its like telling the number of stars in the sky. You can’t pick a definitive number, can you?
Well, you’ve your answer right there. You can pick the answer now.
There is no question about having a point to live and loving yourself. Both are quite different aspects.
They are interconnected, I agree, But in a long shot.
Suicides happen not because they start hating themself. They happen because of the situations they are in and their helplessness and the inability to do past their inhibitions.
They give up on themselves, but don’t hate themselves to commit suicide.
You said it.
And that’s what I had been saying.
that was funny on one side but on the other side i started thinking bout the characters i wud not b liking when i meet myself ….kind of introspection
It is kind of introspection, is it not?
Thanks for dropping by.
How I interpret it is if you were to meet yourself, regardless of who you are, would you like you? That gives us pause because we might have certain things about us that might annoy us. Do you think you would get annoyed with You? Thanks for visiting and liking Absence, by the way.
Well, yes. I would be annoyed. First of all, I am a very reserved and silent person and if even someone was sitting in front of me, I talk the least. Keeping that in mind and a lot of other stupid things, I would definitely hate that person. As a matter of fact, I might not even be interested to meet in the first place.
Thank you.
And you have an interesting blog.
Keep Writing. 🙂
You say it so well, fantastic read!
Thank you so much. 😀
The last line packed a punch! No I would not like to meet ‘me’ or know ‘me’ either. One lifetime is enough:)))
Why, thank you. 🙂
I am glad that we are on the same boat of one lifetime is enough. 🙂
Haha. Touché. One lifetime is indeed enough.😁
Hahaha, loved reading your interpretation. You have an amazing sense of humour which is very rare nowadays. So, as of now, am bookmarking your blog, hoping that my next visit to your blog will again give me shots of laughter.
Thank you. I am glad you liked it.
I hope I won’t disappoint you. 🙂
Interesting and humorous piece. I like your writing style. I would love to read more from you!
Thank you. I am glad you liked it.
I hope to writing more of such. 🙂
Your post made me laugh and at same time made me ponder about me.
Cheers

I hope it was all good pondering.
Thank you for dropping by. 🙂
Haha! This was a typical Ak style post. I came after a long time and it was fun.
Thank you. 🙂
Long time no see. 😛
I hope to come up with more such. 🙂
I agree with you here. That would be one hell of a mind boggling scenario. But I guess I wouldn’t like me much some days. On some days, however, I’d be totally head over heels in love with myself 😛
Haha. I guess that’s quite an apt choice to make . 😁
Haha very funny… seriously will have to think on it…would I like to meet myself…🤔🤔🤔
