There are some people who think that I'm imaginary, ie a bot......there are others who pray that I'm imaginary.

No, I'm pretty much how I appear on the Net, a paraphrase of a Bellows analysis:

"Well, you don't fit into any known category. One minute you're calm, the next, you're hysterical. You can pass the most difficult test the Air Force has devised, and yet, you hear voices. You're a top scientist, and you suffer from delusions."

I'm an endless flirt, I can be serious one moment and shift to acting in a second and back again. I can fall into an Improv skit, such as on my divers, without missing a beat.

I do dance, collect unicorns, and am a Rennie.

ONE........TWO.......THREE! It's ME!

I am very similar to real life on this forum.

I am a bit more open about some things and a bit more reserved about other things (I try not to say anything that would identify people I know in real life).

Overall it is about the same. I like to debate. I like to argue. I can be abrasive, I say a lot of the same type of things that I say on here. I am not that different to be honest.

I am an introvert. I think I pretty much come across as a polite, quiet person on the boards. When I was younger, I was very shy. I am still someone shy in a large social situation, but have conquered most of my shyness over the years.

I don't feel comfortable around people, and because I'm not facing anyone online, I express opinions that I wouldn't say to anyone in real life.

I think they match to some extent. The only difference is in person I may or may not get the actually opportunity to talk with you. If someone actually interacting with me in person it would be a match. It also depends on the context. If I was at work my conduct is adjusted to that situation. If I am out and about on my own vs with my husband or child... also my behaviour is effected by that so some extent. Ex if you really where annoying me if I was with my child I would be less likely to tell you off. If I was along I would be a lot more open about the issue .

I am more volatile although I am calmer as I have gotten older. There is a lot of intensity in my speech.

When I post here, I try for calmness. I really try not to become emotional.

I'm more childish and girlish in real life.
