I guess I'm pretty similar online to as in real life, but I'm perhaps a little more tactful in my day-to-day relationships because the repercussions of transgression are a little stronger.
I'm a real commit-o-phobe, and I think that's the reason why I keeep coming back online. The relationships you establish don't require nearly as much commitment as the ones you make in real life. I still like socialising in real life, but I just tend to have these bouts of pure selfishness which lend me little patience for the people I'm hanging out with sometimes... I still don't know why. When you're online, you can just logoff whenever you want, I like that freedom.
However, only a few nights ago I realised just how alone I'm going to end up if I continue down this self-indulgent path...

People are lucky if I even give the SLIGHTEST hint as to who I really am. Can't be too careful. One day you're down in your bunker, safe and sound, next thing ya know, you're here -> [img]graemlins/tombstone.gif[/img]

Online, I'm more of the person I'd like to be. I'm not a bad person or anything, just a better one online. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm a total different person to what I am in real life. in fact in online world only 1 other person who truly knows who I am and I'm not about to add to that numbers. well maybe...

I'm pretty consistent on and offline. Full of opinions and lame humor. I believe in being myself. Offline, just as online, I love to talk about music, video games, current events, and myself of course :D .

In real life I'm very stuborn and argumentative, but I don't talk to people I don't know. When I have to interact with a new group of people I analyse them until I understand their personalities, then I'll join in discussions.

I don't try to make friends and simply act as myself and say what I think. I don't like being the center of attention, I prefer listening and adding my opinion every one in a while, but when someone push one of my buttons, I go on a rant.

I also don't like to socialise, I'm not interested in knowing what you ate yesterday, what your neighboor told his wife, or what your best friend is going to wear today. I also don't care about your car. I'd rather have a meaningfull discussion. Religions, politics, phylosophy, literature, video games, movies, those are things I like.

I'm verious curious and like to give advices, I'm a very good confident.

I think I act the same way on the net.

Heh, I feel like I'm writing an add for one of those online dating service. Single people only please... ;)
