>>In other news, your sentence is a perfect example of the jumble created in english by the lack of reflective pronoun (sebe/se, себя, sich, maga - almost all other languages have one), So... in OUR life, ONE (which one?) wants to look at YOU! Wow... In any other language this is simple.

>I should have written 'himself/herself' instead of 'yourself.' In Spanish I would have to use the same grammar construct since they don't have 'sebia' either. And in French the same. So maybe only Slavic languages are so perfect :)
Actually "oneself" and "one" would be correct:
"one does not want to look at oneself in the mirror ... the manner in which one behaves"
