Why does something seem to get bigger to you but everyone tells you it's not?

For example, my nose. Does that make you crazy? Or can your nose actually get bigger?

Technically speaking, your nose can't just get bigger, but it can get droopier and appear bigger due to a breakdown in the fibers that make up the surrounding flesh. Perhaps it seems bigger because you scrutinize your face more than anyone else, and also because they want to be nice!
