The appropriate response is looking-glass self.The looking-glass self is a social mental idea made by Charles Horton Cooley in 1902. It expresses that a man's self-becomes out of society's relational associations and the view of others.
Cooley's idea of the looking-glass self expresses that a man's self-becomes out of a man's social collaborations with others. The perspective of ourselves originates from the consideration of individual qualities and impressions of how others see us.

The statement above is TRUE. Charles Horton Cooley was the one who pioneer the believe that we can get to know ourselves better through the medium of interaction with others. He used the phrase' looking glass self' to illustrate that the self is a product of our social interactions with other people.
