I got a message from a member that belongs to a messageboard that one of our previous members belonged to. He didn't last a month. Why do people hide behind a screen name to create chaos?

They get lost in the anonymity....and become something different than what they are.

Everyone we met in L.A. was the real deal. No internet muscles. Everyone was what they said they were.

I'm like an open book  . I hate pretense. Above all I prize honesty.

I always imagine a creepy person locked up in their room .. sort of gleefully gloating at a chance to "bully" someone around online.
Sort of sad  |
