I've been ruminating on this ever since I read a thread the other day where several people thought an accidental meeting of another member in the "real" world would be awkward and embarrassing.
I didn't see that thread, so maybe I misunderstood your OP. I doubt I'd feel awkward at all, or even slightly embarassed. However, it depends on the person involved and the situation as to whether I'd find myself talkative or not. Certain people bring out the chattiness and with others I've a shy streak. I didn't see that thread either. Why would an accidental meeting of someone from here in real life be awkward or embarrassing? Because perhaps some people's fantasies here are preferrable to reality. The fantasy that they've cultivated would go *poof*. I can't think of another reason. Surely there is no longer a stigma attached to being on an internet site. Even if there were, why would seeing another member of the same site be embarrassing unless you wanted to hide from reality? That's what I'm wondering. |

Theres two people in everyday life and here. Theres dishonest people and honest ones. And people lie for different reasons. Insecurity is probably the big one. You can be whatever you want to be here...until someone who actually is asks you ONE question or you forget ONE thing you typed way back when. Then your cover is blown. lol
I'm quite sure that at least small percentage of the "regulars" on here are not who they say, do not do what they say they do, do not react the same way in life as they appear to here, etc. And I suspect a few are living in mommys basement collecting severed heads as their "real" friends. (You know who you are) lol I really can't accept that someone is a "success" or even psychologically sound that has the time/inclination to be here 24/7 as a member of these silly little cliques, creating useless threads ad-infinitum and replying to every post on here...all day and night long. Misery loves company, so you guys keep on "loving" each other...virtually. I've met a few people on here and have not been disappointed as far as them being genuine. I do like to hear the opinions of others, even if they are 180 degrees out from my own but I'm not inviting anyone to my home until I KNOW them..and you just can't do that here. But heres a start. The honest person here isn't looking like Tom Cruise after makeup, does not own a Lamborghini, and has some opinions that everyone doesn't agree with, and does not answer every question like a diplomat. Now excuse me, my pilot has informed me that my private jet is fueled and awaiting my arrival for my trip to the Riveria. |
