I don't think we are constant; I think we are changing all the time, so there isn't one specific "me", or "you", because "you" is always changing.
I have to differ though about all the personalities, though: Your personality stays the same (when interacting with different groups), it's your attitude that changes... It are your behavioral patterns...
Don't forget: Personality is just a description of the emotional, thought, and behavioral patterns in a person. So if your attitude (behavior towards a certain individual/group) changes, it still is part of the pattern.
Therefore: even though your behavior pattern might change, your personality doesn't. (of course it doesn't remain constant, this also changes but I hope you get my point anyway... Personality changes gradually, second by second, just as time changes second by second, it is a constant change, while your attitude may change 'ritenuto' (to throw in a musical term, as it was the first word to jump into my mind)... Your attitude may change just like that.
In short: Your attitude may change like a "BANG!": suddenly you have changed your attitude, while your personality changes like a clock... gradually, and without sudden changes...
I think "I" or "Me" or "You" is just a collection of personality, morality, intellect, etc., and nothing more, it isn't just one aspect of you, it is EVERYTHING about you... ALL the mental and physical qualities that reside in your body (and that ARE your body) together, are the thing we call "you", or that you call "I" or "Me"...
And it is not constant at all... we develop all the time, we learn stuff all the time, we change all the time, and therefore, YOU change all the time, and therefore, there is no constant you...
THEREFORE: stop trying to be "you", and BE/STAY YOURSELF!!!
If you still aren't convinced I have a question for you guys:
IF your personality/attitude is only one of the dozens of attitudes/personalities, then whose are the other ones???
