Do you wonder how you are percieved? Copied from BT!

Flowmojo, 2 October, 2012 at 15:13 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 56

Inspired by TNPs post on BT...do you feel you come across the same here as you do IRL? Are you the kind of person who needs reassuring that what you are saying isnt ridiculous or silly?

Are you the same IRL?!

    I couldn't give a sh*t how I am perceived on here. I am exactly the same in real life; honest, sarcastic straight to the point etc.

    I'm not the same in real life - online I think I come across as quite confident, but IRL I am very quiet and shy

    I think I'm pretty similar. I'd say I joke more and am a bit more sarcastic in real life - I worry it's not going to come across right online sometimes.

    Not too sure really. About the same really...at least I would be if I was able to post more!

    I really wish I wasn't but I'm quite paranoid about what people think of me, I'm aware that I don't make a good first impression and that's hard to overcome. I always re-read my posts before posting and occasionally feel like deleting just after I click post! I think I'm the same IRL but perhaps slightly more confident on here as I have time to phrase things how I want more than I do in conversation. I'd never be able to say this the right way in person for example. I generally assume people think the worst, but depending on who it is I don't always care.

    IRL I have quite a dry self-deprecating sense of humour and people sometimes think I'm being down about myself when I'm not.

    Not sure how I come across here to be honest, probably a bit shy and worry what people think of me.

    Same in real life apart from I can be really sarcastic which doesn't really come across in text!!

    I think I'm pretty similar. Tend to waffle a lot to say something that I could say a lot more succintly. Don't tend to say anything that would cause great controversy.

    I don't know how I'm perceived on here. Sometimes I go to reply and change my mind, as sometimes I've said things online that have been taken the wrong way and people have been offended.

    I think I am pretty similar- I always try to be a people pleaser due to daft paranoia and try and laugh at myself before anyone else has the chance too!

    I can get really frustrated but only my mother and other half get the brunt of my bad days!!

    I am really six foot seven with a beard.

    Actually, I have no idea how I am perceived on here or indeed IRL. Who knows what people say about me behind my back?

    i for one only say good things as you is mint innit AC ?

    i have been surprised by some people IRL as they come across as perhaps a little differently to then do on here, famously Panjita who i expected to be loud and raaa when infact she was the sweetest and lovliest person ever!!

    I'm pretty horizontal/laid back I don't take myself or others too seriously.... I have been pulled up a few times on here for being rude/aggressive but I think that's probably just some people being over sensitive as its hard to get the tone across in text.

    Awww you is so nice Flowster.

    There must be plenty don't agree - in my earlier days on here I was invited to join a FB group of Hitchers and the rest of the group voted NO!!! Waaaaaahhh.

    (I know who you are......!)

    I find it hard to put the "true me" across in text! Like some have said it's hard to write things in text format sometimes without coming across rude/stupid etc!

    In real life I'm really quiet until i get to know someone and have settled in! When I first met my best friend and now MOH she thought i was really scary!!!

    I think I'm perceived on here exactly the same as I am irl. Quiet, non-confrontational, not the kind of person who's easily remembered and a huuge worrier!

    I'm not really bothered how I come across on here, it's pretty easy to be confident and articulate online. I can be quite shy in real life and worry about how I come across way more than I should (result of years of bullying by so-called 'friends'). I would give anything to be the kind of person who doesn't give a sh*t what anyone thinks of them.

    Same here really. I'm quiet for quite awhile until I get to know people.

    I think I come across online differently, I think using my ipad has made me that way. I get frustrated at always correcting the autocorrect I don't always explain myself very well because I just want to finish typing!!

    I perceived you very diffirently- mainly as I thought you were a laydeee!

    I think I am different to how I come across on here, I remember the post about accents once and Flow I think said I spoke posh and lots of people were really surprised at that (I dont think I sound posh though, just not Pompey innit)

    Does everyone think I am a Jezza extra ?

    I don't really think about how I am perceived as such;

    I find getting my point across really really difficult when writing and I worry about everyone who likes correct spelling and grammar. I am dyslexic find it really difficult to get what I am saying in the right order. It takes me along time to respond to things if it isnt just a one line response.

    l don't always respond to things as my life to date and my work is a million miles from what I assume most people on here have lived or do. I think my response to some people would just seem odd.

    I'm not really sure how I'm perceived on here, or whether I post enough for people to have formed one??

    I would be interested to know how I come across though so I can see if it is the same as real life....?

    I think I come across the same on here as in real life... please correct me if not!!

    I'd like to think that I am who I am and don't pretend to be anyone else.

    That sounds so mean.

    I am much nastier and completely sarcastic IRL. I do try to be pleasant on the forums, but everyone else would say I am a right bolshy, mouthy *** particularly at work (not to kids, but in the staff room.)

    Snap, because of this I do avoid controversial threads or debates. which is strange because no one on here knows me in RL so I could go crazy!!
