Question for the audience

[batskeets]

Does your internet personality differ from your regular one?

My Answer:
I think the guiding principles of my personality are the same online as offline. I think I come off as a more silly/fun person in my online interactions, and more moody and quiet in person. I'm also more likely to state things directly, and openly express opinions online, although that's becoming less true over time, as I become more expressive in my in-person interactions.

In some ways, I think I act on the internet the way I'd like to be able to act in person. It's easier, because I don't get those twitchy and uncomfortable feelings that I sometimes get with face-to-face communication.

i'd say, like you, i am sillier and more direct online. i'm a lot more confident. unless you're in my comfort zone "IRL", then about the same. but my comfort zone is kinda small. :/ i'm a shy girl.
