Do you tend to be more outgoing....

I tend to be more focused online. I tend to not be able to pull my thoughts together in real life, and here, at least, I'm better at keeping my temper (In real life, my emotional range, while great, can generally only be expressed in 1 of 3 ways. Drawing, Hitting, or crying. I'm more able to be coherent here.

Honestly, I think I'm LESS outgoing on forums. One reason for this is I tend to have to censor myself sometimes (my sense of humour is not for everyone and it definitely doesn't always come across properly in typed form lol). Also, I'm pretty outgoing in person and always have been. My mom said she had a hell of a time trying to teach me not to talk to strangers when I was 3 - apparently I felt that if I introduced myself, they weren't strangers anymore.

I feel exactly the same way, Stephiane. Exactly.

Wow! You all have really intresting anwsers. I love reading your posts. I'm still going, so keep it up!

I think I'm about the same as far as personality, but I tend to be more vocal here than in person. I'm pretty shy.

There are some folks out there who need to be fixed so they will shoot blanks - IMO.

Ugh! Ain't it the truth.

I am the only one in my area how is a full time cat lover. I show pictures of my cats, carry Catfancy magizines around, and waer my kitty necklace. People think I'm SO odd. They call the the animal freak sometimes. Some horriblekids at my school tell me all the dead cat that their dad ran over.


Here, I feel normal. I guess that's why I'm more outgoing.

I think it's because I hate living in the city (small-town girl at heart).

They should be very glad it's not me in earshot. I'd pick them all up by the scruff of their necks with soap in my other hand!

Thank you Susie!
Funny, everyone thinks I'm Miss Priss and Nicey-nice but I am really NOT. Not about protecting kitties. I am afraid of nothing and nobody and no bratty kids!

E-, Susie, I'll help too! Even in school, I was always the one who protected the bullied from the bullies......even if it meant beating up the bullies myself!

Let me guess - they go into great detail about it and then smile about it?

Those are the ones who need to be neutered!

Can I help beat some morals into kids? I used to get picked on a great deal in school, because my dog would come with me to school (he was my chauffeur for all that it was my mum driving). I used to read incredibly advanced stuff- in middle school I beat a kid up with the communist manifesto because he called my mum a commie *****, because she had an accent. I thought it Ironic.

I'm really too shy. I either hold it in, or yell at them if its bad enough.

Exactly what they do. I agree with you there.

Thanks everyone. Come join me, we can be the four-animalloving-bully bashing-Mustcateers(sp?)!

Aw what a great thread Jenny!

I'm much more outgoing and talkative in person. Even though I am on TCS too!
