OMG, thank you GingerB ... Off to change my profile!!! Nah!!!! Think I'll just copy paste this post to read when I'm feeling low or doubting myself ...
You should never have reason to doubt yourself. You are beautiful inside and out.
Jeeepers: Is it you posting on the threads ? Or are you someone else ? I mean, how you present yourself on the forums, is this how you are in reality ? Are you braver, or shy, or the same person on the outside ?
If I were to meet you out on the streets, would I be meeting the same personality as I get to know here ?
I am pretty off and on... Me too.
I think everyone is less inhibited online than they would be in person, some a little TOO uninhibited

Of course, it’s me. And of course, it’s only a tiny part of me. I post here when I have nothing better to do, hence, that’s tiny part of me that I’m exposing here isn’t the best part. It’s a lazy and often blunt part. There’re other parts and pieces that use when I work or communicate with family and friends, or just interacting with people in the real world. (No, people on Internet are not quit real for me.)
But it’d possible to recognize me on a street – pictures here are of me.

A very good question. I am sure that there are people here who present themselves in a very different way than they would in real life. But I am also sure that there are people here who are themselves. I think I am the same in cyber and real life, there's only one of me. I certainly dont try to be different in any way. Whats the point in being different , if you are ever going meet people in real life you will be found out to be a fake.
