you don't even know me

The default response used by someone who is confronted with a truth about themselves that they would rather not face.

This phrase is commonly used by addicts, those with low self esteem and just about anyone else whose biggest fear is that someone else will notice their problem and offer to help.

Using this phrase successfully pushes away anyone wanting to help, and the user ironically ensures that indeed, nobody will ever know them.

In another ironic twist, if someone you know well says this phrase to you, then it means either:

1) they've been lying to you about who they really are (in which case it's their own fault that you don't know them), or

2) they have suddenly and fundamentally changed in the few seconds prior to telling you that you don't know them (in which case they also don't know themselves).

However, the case is usually that they're unobservant, self-absorbed, don't like that you were so easily able to identify their issues and resent the fact that they are unable to pay attention to anything long enough to 'know' it. They assume that everyone else is like this too, which is why they seem so shocked when uttering this phrase.
"I think you've been ignoring your family and you should spend more time with them."
"You don't even know me!"

"I think your drinking is negatively affecting your performance at work."
"You don't even know me!"

"I think you should take a shower because you stink."
"You don't even know me!"

A phrase heard in the Pink Floyd song, "Another Brick in the Wall". Extremely funny.
Son: "Mom, can I have some pudding?"
Mom: "You haven't eaten your meat yet."
Son: "But mom!"
Mom: "Son, you know that: 'If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"
Son: "Don't be quoting Pink Floyd on me again..."

Employer: It seems you tested positive for marijuana.

Employee: I was at a party and people were smoking around me.

Employer: The party must have been in a Mini Cooper with the windows rolled up to have this high of a concentration in your urine. Don't bullshit a bullshitter. Clean yourself up or you're out.
