It is our eyes which, if you are normal will be side by side and therefore they make it look that way as the image crosses over in the mirror. Makes sense ?\nTry turning your head sideways in the mirror and see whether it happens .

it teaches us to become use to a lot of negative things and see them as normal.... people learn to think-its on tv all the time, it must be okay to do myself in real life! thats why

You're looking at an image reflexed 5 feet away while standing 5 feet away. \nSo the image in the mirror would be a total of 10 feet away from you. Want to see it 5 feet away? Move up some more ;)

Actually it is not really a good practice at all.  Our bodies are made to function to completion, so when we inhibit the ordinary process, we are interrupting everything.  Over time, this can cause some damage to proper functioning.  So it is not especially good for health to engage in such a practice.  Somehow, we know that it just isn't the right thing to do.  Besides, the fullest experience can only happen when the ordinary process comes to full completion.

A white object spreads the light into many directions. A mirror doesn't, it instead keeps the light focused, which is why we can see our images.

I think everyone does that to an extent. It goes back to not being able to see flaws in yourself too easily. But, as people mature they SHOULD begin to have a better understanding of themselves and therefore require fairness on all fronts.

I do this all the time in the mirror. Metaphorically of course. I'm not a human X-ray! But if I stare at myself long enough, I can see myself differently, like as other people see me, and I can "see" my soul. It's kinda freaky and I don't do it as much as I used to.

If it is a plain mirror it depends on where you stand in front.If you stand very close the mirror must be nearly as tall as you.As you move away from the mirror even a mirror the size of your hand will do.

Real mirrors aren't 100% effective, so each time the light bounced off a mirror, some would be absorbed.  Plus, there's also you with your flashlight in the room, and most of the light that hits you would be absorbed.  So, the answer is that the light would be absorbed and converted to heat, just like it would in a room without mirrors.

It's ornamental.  It's well accepted.  It's like why do people have to have shiny waxed cars.  It's an internal motivation.  It's relatively cheap.   Has no effect on your quality of life there, although in some places it is viewed negatively and could close doors for you.
