On the Internet, many of us want to give off a pretty good impression about who we'd want to be like in real life, rather than who we actually are.
**Raises her hand slightly** I'll have to admit, out in the real world, I've been a very, very silent girl who would hardly ever want to talk to anyone at all within my university - unless they were a very good friend of mine, of course. I never really was that talkative to strangers, even though I was rather well-liked by many. When they approach me, I tend to shy away, feeling overprotective of myself too often. Maybe I give off a soft hello randomly at times, that's about it. Then I tend to walk away, as usual.
But on the net, I feel so much more comfortable there, and can tackle things head on. The net is a wonderful tool to help you represent yourself more deeply and clearly: your thoughts, and your feelings - I'm sure many of you will agree as well. You feel more comfortable chatting behind the net, with no strings attached.
It's like seeing other people in a whole new light. It's amazing how free one person can express himself or herself online, no doubt. Sometimes, but not always.

And so the question begins here: Do you express yourself and your inner emotions much more better on the net, than in real life, or not? And what's your input on this matter, here? Thanks a lot. Again, I appreciate it.
