I triggers angers me when people copy me and for some weird reason people yhink its funny to copy me. When I say phrases one for exampke I always say well this and such cought my attention them that fake now ex friend will copy me even to the point they copy the way I dressed they will even copy my perfume that I wear. To the point when ut creppy they try to be a réplica of you.

Have you ever dealt with that experience with someone or a so called fake friend who wanted to be you wanted to be like you? I do not understand how people just simply can not have their own style they always copy other people.

Sounds like folk with low or no self-esteem who are hangers-on because, as you note, they have not developed a personal/social presence of their own. Better to tell them to keep away from you and cut ties. Too stressful to be around such folk. As soon as you spot them, get away!

I distance myself from them. I don't want jealous or envious people near me.

I keep them around to do my bidding! Well I used to until 2013..

They will probably not be a friend of mine for long...

That is seriously creepy and super annoying, I get you 😅
Some people copy because they’re insecure or obsessed with fitting in, and you just happen to be their “template.”

I’d emotionally detach, share less, and take it as proof that your style and personality are strong. Protect your space, keep your distance, and put your energy into people who are inspired by you but still stay themselves.
