Do you consider yourself unique or a "statistical number"?

I like to consider myself unique, not one from the crowd. I believe that nobody is like me, even though I haven't accomplished many in my life yet. I think that I have a unique way of thinking, acting and interacting with others. Many people said to me that I am a different type of people, unique really. Most of people find it hard to understand me. Every person who knows me from a longer time has said me that I am different then others many time. How about you? Do you consider yourself unique or you are the same as the majority? I am not trying to sound like being cocky, I just consider myself unique in my way.

"if you are not unique from the other people then you are the other people" it's an idea that come out of my mind. we think of ourselves as unique because we can only interact with ourselves completely people think you are unique because they know you and they dont know others or they see you as a standard others sees you as no different from the people they just see

Maybe you are right, but definitely I have a different personality from every person I have ever met. Surely there are other people who are mostly the same as me, but I have never met such a person. So this means that I am unique between the people I interact with, and I think that is enough. Maybe this sounds a bit cocky, but that is not my intention.

well it's good because people needs to be unique so that others can recognize them your friends can recognize you because you are unique

I am as common as the person that you find on the street. But in a way, I have my own uniqueness.

Believe me there are many times that I wish to be more common, but I can't. Of course, if you look at me, you will never tell that, but my personality is different from every other persons that I ever met. Everybody who knows me tells me that I am unique and that I have a difficult personality. That is why I have a hard time to get accustomed with different situations and different people. I hope you'll understand what I was trying to explain.

i consider myself unique when i am with my friends and family and having a social life when i'm with people who care about me but when you are around people, particular place of work, the company makes me feel like just a number

I think every person is unique in the own way, so yes, I do consider myself uniquie and I'm not conceited at all. I kind of think differently than other people and friends around me also I do not tend to blend in with the crowd just because I'think I have to be and act like everyone else, so here I'm different. I have my own style, opinions, ideas, so I think that's what makes us all unique and not just a statistical number as you call it.
