On the other hand, she's also comparing her inner self with her outer self — the outer self being the Anne who's surrounded by admirers, who's chatty and playful, etc. Anne reflects that she's grown up in a lot of ways since She's discovered an "inner happiness" beneath her "superficial and cheerful exterior," and she discovered her longing for a boyfriend.
