Writer's Block: Divided Self
Yes. Yes, yes, yes, a million times yes. Okay, that may be a bit of an exaggeration. But I am at least a little different. Online I am a lot braver than I am when talking face to face with someone. I can say things in an e-mail or instant message or a livejournal update that I could never say to someone over the phone, let alone in person. I'm not very confident in myself a lot of the time, I get too emotional in real life, but online things are just words. It's easier to disconnect myself from them. And so I can be a lot braver online. More honest and open. The same goes for writing letters. Personality-wise I'm the same,t hough. I mean when it comes down to what I like and how I say things and such. I am who I am. Maybe more of me comes out online, but it's the same me. ^_^
