I wonder if it's a manifestation of some innate ND trait or some kinda coping mechanism developed in response to the "jUsT aCt NoRmAL,!!1!" everyone tries to hammer into us as kids 🫠
It's called mirroring and it's a normal human behavior that starts in infancy.
what the fuck!? this is normal!?
that's actually awesome thank you for sharing this i had no fuckin idea it was a documented normal human behavior
Yep, even neurotypicals do the thing where you subconsciously copy someone's accent and they think you're mocking them. A curse of social existence.
