Answer:

The answer is: Me.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to symbolic interactionism theory, proposed by George Herbert Mead, the self is made up of two parts: the I and the Me. The I is the more spontaneous part of our actions and attitudes, those that we know are not what is expected of us.

The me is the part of the self that is aware of social expectations and attitudes, the me is the internalization of what we think is socially expected from us, it is the social part of our identity and of how we define ourselves.

According to Mead, the I and the me interact with each other, which is how we negotiate our identity between what we think of ourselves and what we think others think of us and what they expect of us.
