Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Most would answer with their name as it identifies who we are!. But, if you mean who inside, most men would answer with their occupation while women usually answer with achievements, mother, beauty queen, etc!. If you were to answer with any other statement, it would show what is of upper most in your life, in other words what is the greatest value that you see in yourself!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I might ask the same to the mirror if I could get a response!. The question is personal, possibly the first of many to follow!. It is simple, but over simplified by common use, and practice!. Simple or over-simplified, the question undoubtedly is about self, about oneself … about someone put under the flicker of scrutiny!.

Now, how shall I respond!? Shall I respond importantly !.!.!. or listlessly, or casually, or interestingly or cautiously!? I am not sure!. I am thinking, but I like to deny it … I am natural … I do not have to think for tasks as simple as this !.!.!. I am ready for all situations!.

But if someone really approached me as freely and as spontaneously as this, and asked me this then I would have hesitated! Yes, I would have hesitated!.

I often hesitate to things that come in my way quite inadvertently!. I think I would pause a moment, raise my eyebrows, look into the eyes of my inquirer slightly to catch their impression, and tell them how I am … or, I might draw a deep breath, and just walk away!.

But I might find myself interested!
Then I would like to know!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm a survivor; a multiple outsider, seen by some as an angel but I don't claim this for myself - who are you!?

I probably would never say this as it is such a weird question out of the blue but i would say it to myself - I would probably ask first why and what for what sort of answer are you looking for!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

you're right to have clammed- it's an odd thing to be asked out of the blue (seemingly, from what i can gather from the info here)!. someone you've never seen before approaches you and lays this down!? a little off the path of etiquette!. it's not uncommon for someone else to want want to know you for many reasons- attraction, deja vu, to serve you court papers!. but to go through with it so unsmoothly!. and it can also go the other way, and this person may think you're a backstreet boy doing some pre-reunion tour shopping and want to climb in your windows later while you're not home and draw you a bath for when you return!. my response would have been a rather gruff why!? who the **** are you!? not what should be, but it's like when i get a wrong number call on my cell, and i ask the caller who it is!. there was one guy who would call, i'd answer say hello, and he'd reply who's this!? my stock reply was ************ you called me; who the **** is this!? who do you want!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Simple! First answer I don't know
2nd: Depending on the person,location,the relationship to him/ her
I say Give time to think over!.
3rd answer a hearty laugh to mean that even great persons can't reply at the spur of the moment
4th Will I be allowed to tell what comes uppermost in mind without hurting the feeling of the questioner!.
5th will be Why do you want such details!?

Seriously!? I would say that I am a product of my nature and environment!. The summation of two people who got lonely and cold one night and decided to go at it in the heat of the moment!. The befuddlement of my peers and angst of my parental units!. I would honestly say all that, and then some!. You are who you are, and you will be what you will be!. My greatest accomplishment in life is that I HAVE LIVED! :D Have a groovy day!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

My reply is → I am your annoying friend :DWww@QuestionHome@Com

I would say no one, really!. This is not a response from someone depressed or has some low self esteem!. My response would be "no one" because "me" is always tied up with identification which is imposed on the individual by the environment!. For example, if I was an Irish American, that is attending graduate school for dentistry and I work full time, I have 3 brothers and two sisters!. I like to play computer games, read books, and ride bicycles all day!. Now, all this describes my activity and labels given to me by society which I may accept if I am not conscious enough to see it!. Understand, that I did not have to go to school, I can have characteristics from a group but there is no such thing as an "Irish" gene nor would I necessary be a person who consumes large quantities of alcohol!. I could be a couch potato or a tennis player!. None of these describe who or what you are but are only the labels given to you by society!. The "me" is thought identifying with the labels from the environment to give itself structure and appearance!. It is only real in the sense in that we use it to navigate through society and to label and identify!. Other than that, the label does not tell you who you are!. What are you before the label is made!? Is there a me before identification begins!? The question then becomes, if "I" is given to me by society and its labels, then what are you!? If you see that any identification is given to you always by society then the answer is really no one!. Its like being an a restaurant and looking at the menu, you see on the menu what the restaurant offers in food but you dont take the labels as food itself!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
