    The real trick is to have a the cycle continue done further with models of their model of your model of their model ad infinitem.

    Then go “sorry what” because you were to busy doing that to actually process what they were saying.

      I don’t have the spare processing to do it in real time, luckily instead my brain saves every awkward conversation so later I can analyze it in detail, over and over

      Would the circles being the same size imply that the two people have 100% accurate models of each other?

        The size of the circles is totally unrelated to accuracy. That just represents the amount of processing power your brain is using.

        I think the implication is that an anxious person would be so worried about the other person’s model of them that it takes up all of the space in their brain.
