People usually pretend to be what they're not in reality because they think what they are is not good enough for what they want. Not good enough for promotion, so they pretend to be better. Not good enough to get a date with an attractive person, so pretend to be better. Feel outclassed by friends, so pretend to be better...
Ultimately, pretenders suffers from the dilemma of inferiority complex. The only exception to this is when pretending is for a role in a movie as a film actor or actress. Obviously, everybody seek to be the best in his/her craft and the human mind tries to copy everything it sense from it's surrounding but this fact doesn't give exception to going against moral standard for self pleasing. Sometimes people fear that showcasing their true selves are making them prone to judgments which they are not tolerant to. Also some people feel pretense is a way out in gaining acceptance from the society they are living in. In their human mentality, trying to mirror the actions of the ones they adore-- but at the end they only manage making themselves look foolishly.
Pretense is an act to desist from because it doesn't portray our true personality as it is deceptive and even have the ability compounding more problem for ourselves.
