The correct answer is Option (2) → Self as an 'object'

Self as an 'object' refers to how we perceive and understand ourselves. It involves introspection and self-reflection, leading to the formation of beliefs and attitudes about our own characteristics, qualities, and traits. In this statement, the individual is observing and describing their own emotional sensitivity ("I am one who easily gets hurt"). They are viewing themselves as an object of their own analysis and forming a belief about their emotional vulnerability.

When one say, “I know who I am”, the self is being described as a ‘knower’ as well as something that can be ‘known’.
