no offense or anything, but i think those of you who form relationships online with people you've never met before and little "online" social cliches are extremely pathetic. yes i'm talking about those of you in cb who are constantly on and constantly trying to make friends with people you don't even know. i can bet my ass over half of you aren't the same offline as you are on.

Yeah, I don't really try to make friends either, it just sort of...well happens, I guess. I guess I don't really act exactly the same offline and online, I'm shy in person.

but yeah. I agree.

I think it's fine, but that's just me.
Some people act the same online and offline.
I act pretty much the same offline as I do right here in cB.
I know of someone else who acts the same offline and online.. I've met her in both situations. So, yeah. I agree, yet I disagree.
I think having a bunch of online friends is cool.

Um.. hmm.. okay you know I do call the people I meet.. but *gasp* I could also be some 50 year old short pretty elf man. Mmmhmmm. You could never know ph34r.gif But it's nice to know that you can meet someone freom a far away distance. but loving someone you only talk to online, w/o calling, well then that'll never last.. But you never know...


I do act the way I act online the way I act in real life... BUT the only difference is I cannot make those cool smileys and stuff like that..a nd the ph34r.gif smiley that I love so much. But sometiimes I lie about things to make peopel leave me alone.. And that only happens when someone I don't know (not anyone from cB) IMs me outta no where haha... I say "oh, no, this is [insert a manly name]." But now I put on my aim privacy.. =P

But as for cB, IDK.. there's only a few that are really close to me. I guess it just depends on your point of view. I really do want to meet the people I'm close with on cB in real life someday.

I find it easier to be myself around createBlog people than people I know in person because of how I can kinda trust them, they won't say OMG THATS SO GAY HAHA YOU SUCK.

well i just respond to topics, not really make friends...



but somepeople cant make friends offline, so they try to online, and to me, i dont really think its that big of a deal. Maybe they are shy and behind a screen are way more outgoing. I dont really think its so 'pathetic' because you dont know there situation, so dont judge them.

i still think it's pathetic, mainly because they aren't being true to themselves by acting like someone else. Or acting differently. and i'm definetly not down with people pretending to have a totally different personality.

maybe they arent acting like someone else, maybe it is really them, and they act like someone else offline. Ever think of things like that?

yes darling, which is why i said I don't like it when people don't act like themselves--if they are acting like themselves online, and acting like someone else off, that would mean they AREN'T acting like themselves.
