Excerpt
So is she mirroring or just kissing butt?

Lol! Nah, she is a sweetie.  She is not trying to get anything.  I think she is afraid to be disliked or fearful of someone wanting to conflict with her. 

When I think kissing butt... .the person is seeking favoritism.

For her... .she seems fearful of conflicting ideas and being challenged enough to have to defend values.

Yeah, I've seen that kind of mirroring, I've done that kind of mirroring, trying to mirror someone else to create a self that fits in.  With age and maturity she may decide to be herself more and let fly?
