This is probably weird to say, but Josh reminds me of my ex-boyfriend. The way he talks, the way he gets defensive, even the way he adjusts his tie. It's like watching my ex try to explain why he was right about something. Same energy.

That's... really personal. Maybe this isn't the right place for that kind of comparison?

I'm not saying it's a bad thing. My ex was smart, he just had trouble admitting when he was wrong. Josh seems the same way. It's actually kind of endearing in a way.

I kind of get what you mean. There's something about the way Josh talks that feels familiar. Like you've met someone like him before.

This is getting weird. Josh is a public figure, not your ex-boyfriend. Maybe keep the personal stuff to yourself?

I'm not saying he IS my ex. I'm just saying there are similarities. The way he gets defensive, the way he explains things, even his body language. It's familiar.

Stay on topic people. This is a discussion forum, not a therapy session.

I'm discussing Josh's behavior patterns. That's on topic. And I'm not the only one who sees similarities between Josh and people we know. It's a valid observation.

I think what Anonymous is saying is that Josh has a certain personality type that's recognizable. That's not weird, it's just an observation about his behavior.

Comparing a public figure to your ex-boyfriend is weird. This whole thread is weird.

I'm not comparing him to my ex in a romantic way. I'm saying their personalities are similar. The defensiveness, the need to be right, the way they explain things. It's a personality type, not a personal thing.

This thread is making me uncomfortable. Can we talk about something else?

I don't think it's that weird. People compare public figures to people they know all the time. It's just a way of understanding their personality.

Comparing him to your ex-boyfriend specifically is weird. This whole thread is uncomfortable.

I'm sorry if this makes people uncomfortable, but I think it's a valid observation. Josh has a certain personality type that's recognizable, and comparing him to someone I know personally helps me understand his behavior better.

I think we should just let this thread die. It's not going anywhere productive.

Fine. I'll stop. But I still think it's a valid observation about Josh's personality type.
