I personally don't feel the need to put on a mask for I tend to be who I am, all the time. I don't know if i feel that when you act a certain way in different environments that that is truly classified as a mask. I feel that it only shows various sides of who you are, rathering than hiding who you are.
I am a friendly and outgoing person and that never changes with where I am. Yes, at work I have to tone down my profanity a bit, but is that me really putting on a mask to please others? I think this whole idea of wearing masks, just shows ones maturity and judgment skills to know what is appropriate when and where. If you feel that you need to change who you are, then I feel you really don't know who you are.
We also discussed whether or not that you have to wear masks when you are in a relationship. Listening to this made me realize how important it is to be yourself with your significant other. That is why so many relationships nowadays don't last. People put on a front to please the opposite sex and act how they assume will get them positive feedback. Then overtime, you finally show who you really are and you become a stranger. The relationship I am in now is as healthy as it is because I am 100% myself at all times. This way I know I am loved for who I am and not who he thinks I am.
