I don't believe that we have met anyone from CM who was much different in real life... everyone we have met have been totally cool.
And I like to believe I am no different here than I am in the flesh and I would hope that I could be picked out in a crowd[:)].  But only people who have met me can answer that!

I am not sure how I am perceived in person versus online. I think I am usually much more cautious as to how I word things here because on here, you don't see my body language or goofy faces.

In person, like Missokyst, I am often very reserved. Not shy, just not a social butterfly. I am usually not the life of the party because I tend to not go to parties. If I have to, I can mingle and chat comfortably with anyone but will usually end up finding one or two really interesting people to get to know.

As far as conversation style...I think it is similar to how I write here. Not into idle chatter. Definitely speak my mind. And like here I do try to temper it according to who is listening. I have even been known to ask someone that does not know me well, if they really do want my opinion.

Arrogant windbags and insecure fools tend to steer clear of me. I haven't any patience for fools and it seems to come across in person as well as here. Like here, I've never needed the acceptance of anyone to feel comfortable. I don't care if I 'fit in'. I just have the mindset of, you will either like me for me, or you won't. I am not changing who I am to make someone else happy or comfortable.

I do know that I can, at times, put people a bit off kilter. Many feel that they just don't quite understand me, that even after years of knowing me, they don't really know me. I can understand that.

So yeah, I would assume I am pretty similar.



WinsomeDefiance -> RE: The true you? (2/8/2010 9:26:43 AM)

Now that I think about it, a few years ago I was visiting with two of my former sister slaves (we'd been collared to the same master and lived together) and when I told her my screen name on CM she said, "YOU are Winsomedefiance?  You're quite the feisty trouble maker aren't you...."  So, maybe I'm not exactly the same online as I am offline.  Although since then, I've tried to be less troublesome. 

Hello, my name is Win D, and I'm on step #1
1. I admit I am powerless over mischief- that my posts have become unmanageable.

I can attest also that those I have met in real life, including the OP are every bit as delightful offline as they are online. I don't even mind people being insecure, I know myself how it feels to be awkward and to stick out like a sore thumb, but I draw the line at those who feel they have to put others down for their own emotional games. These people tend to very quickly become invisible to me.

I heard Jeff spells better in meatspace, but I am not sure, dont have first hand knowledge but word around town...

I think I am myself here but it is also a limited space to interact in. I think I am more cautious here most of the time.

In person I am pretty outgoing. I suck at shallow conversation, I would much rather talk about something meaningful. I like the writing format but find it is also limited here.

I think you can kind of tell folks that are being themselves. I would love to meet someone and find them entirely different than their online persona.



domiguy -> RE: The true you? (2/8/2010 10:41:17 AM)

I am not black nor am I dead.  Which is surprising cause I do emit a rather putrid odor. Odd? ...I know!!!

I am an sweety pie in person.  If I have nothing nice to say I simply keep it to myself.  I have a cherubic face and a singing voice like an angel. 

Horribly obese and slovenly.  Thank God the chicks only care about "inner beauty."

And a sense of humor.... All I ever hear is, " If you weren't so funny, you wouldn't be banging me now"

How much of the real you do you show on here?
take away the pictures and do you think we would recognize your personality at a small gathering?
Have others on here met keyboard warriors who turn out to be very different in rl ?




I have noticed that with a fair few members on that site.

I see myself as being so many different people I couldn't count. The person on here is different to the person I am at events, the person I am at events is different to the person I am when I am in relationships and the person I am when I am in relationships is different to the person I am when I am at home on my own thinking about who I am. I think its about context, I don't think that means I am not myself on here just that there is more than one version of me.
