In Reply to: A Confession & A Question posted by Areia on June 08, 1998 at 01:00:56:
: So, I just went and rashly poured out all of my feelings about the Greek Gods and the Enneagram onto the Movie Board. Looking back on it, I suddenly feel ashamed and embarrassed for not doing it as "well" as I could have. Plus, I felt a sudden envy for people who have stated their points better than I did. That's the confession.
: The question: How does Fourishness manifest in cyberspace? Because "masks" are so easy to use online, are we all just bargain-basement Threes? Is the above instance a prime example of personality online? Is it too late? Why the hell am I asking all these questions? Why don't I post on here more often?
: That will be all.

oooo, you are so right about looking back on posts. they always seem stupid, and i tend to be self-conscious about these things. as for the online personality thing, lots of my online friends find it odd to discover that i'm actually an introverted person. i think i wear masks a lot in general; in real life too. it's not like i'm tricking myself, but as a way to stay distant and formal with everyday superficial people, i often pretend to care about mindless chatter and gossip because it requires less effort on my part.
