Like literally everyone mimicks other people, I notice it with my group of friends because if one of us gloms onto a slang word it gets passed around to every one I talk to

People mimick my speech patterns a lot and I don't notice, or I mimic people that I'm close to/respect/am in love with w/o noticing but its fascinating when you think about it. That's why some people seem to speak in codes bc they know they'll be understood by the people who matter/care enough

its very strange but totally human, but like I said if they make you uncomfortable/invade your safe space, then mimic back, its like telling them to **** off
