Do many people speak to themself in the third person? It seems kind of odd in my opinion since we usually think of people that speak about themselves in the third person as being self absorbed, eccentric, or both. I do often take on the role of a third party in my own thoughts. For example, if I am fixing something on my house and not 100% sure of the results. It may seem ok to me or my wife, but then I think of the previous owner (a very meticulous person named Tim) and think “what would Tim have to say about this”. Then I proceed to scrutinize things from their perspective. It’s not really the same thing, but I think it serves a similar purpose and doesn’t seem so internally awkward.
