Answer 2

A reflexive pronoun is a special kind of pronoun that is usually used when the object of a sentence is the same as the subject. Each personal pronoun (such as "I", "you" and "she") has its own reflexive form: I — myself (intensive) [clarification needed (Why are most of these labeled intensive?)]
