Another curiosity of the day...
People often say that "actions speak louder than words," or "it's not what you say, it's what you do," or some other permutation of that sentiment.
With that in mind:
If someone describes their personality and/or social interaction style to others as being a specific way, does it truly not impact your perception of them? Or if someone makes a point to state that they are a certain type of person, does it hold some sway in how you see them?
How meaningful is it to you if/when people state the qualities they believe themselves to have?
