Reflections....

Most of the people in the morning before going out for work, look in the mirror, check how well they have dressed by analysing their mirror image.That moment, we all have different set of questions, such as:
How am I looking?
Are these clothes suit me ?
Is it a time to change my wardrobe ?
Am I getting older ?
How soon have I become too old !!!

When our mirror image can create so many questions, imagine how much capable our reflections will be !!!

A very simple question that runs in my mind many times is " How do we like other people ?" , 
Do every individual has a standard evaluation sheet, and if the latter passes the criteria, he will be liked !
or
Do we just go on the looks ?
or
Do all of us have a code in mind, and if latter is able to hit the code, he will clear the test 

Suddenly, with so many secondary questions in mind, I had started analyzing people, and their behavior of liking and un liking others.All the options stated above are partially correct & incorrect.
Do we really try to find our reflections in others?
Lets have an age wise brief analysis :
Age : 0-4 years:



Likeness is usually for the person who is close , supportive, who offer our favorite gifts and the ones who make us laugh.
At this age, likeness is usually for same age group people, parents & relatives.
Age: 4-10 years:

This is the age when individual start developing choices and opinions.Usually, we are not fond of people who scold us or instruct us at every step. We prefer spending time with kids who like playing games, share laughter, have same kind of interests.
Age: 11-16 years:



Kids enjoy freedom,they do not like staying in bars.Here is the time, when they start becoming judgmental. They develop "Areas of interest" and then choice individuals with same interests. Definitely, if i am a football freak, i would love to be friends with other football lovers !.At this age, the tendency of likeness also differs for male and female.
Some of the factors that affect boys are freedom, favorite game, hobbies etc. while girls look more for compatibility, hobbies, affection etc.
Definitely, they can not be lured by any gifts or fantasies.
Age: 16-21 years:

Age when others consider you to behave matured and responsible. Yes, it is the time when you step into college. Interact with new same age group youngsters, have a more liking for other sex, start admiring beauty in various sense.make study groups, and nevertheless start creating a comfortable zone with those people with whom spend maximum time. 
Age: 21-30 years

Age when an individual generally becomes more reserved.He/she start liking little less number of people, and gradually become more focused on their own doings.They develop long lasting choices in terms of career, marriage and other responsibilities.
Age: 31-50 years

It is the age when individual talks to maximum number of people and like lesser number of people. They are surrounded with responsibilities, life becomes more routine and family becomes top priority. Likeness is usually for the old friends, and sometimes luckily if you find someone at workplace with whom you have a lot to talk about.
Age: 50 + years:

Life becomes a "things to do" activities. Individuals usually get cut off from friends and overburdened with responsibilities.They tend to talk about their lives to people of their same age. They no longer remain judgmental, and keen on meeting good listeners.

Considering the holistic view, everyone of us look for our reflection in others, at some or the other point and then try to connect our dots with them. It is the same thin line for all of us that connects with others.

Reflections are like our shadows that follow us everytime-everywhere.
