Are you real? — Page 2

I told you once
I told you twice
I told you chicken noodle soup with rice.
I'm Really Rosie.

Why would anyone here assume than anyone is responding truthfully?

---

I'm actually a 700 lbs house-bound transexual. I hire the guy in my avitar to act publicly on my behalf.


Just kidding, I'm real as can be, and DAME can vouch for me.

I am Spartacus.

No, I am SPARTACUS!

I think the way people answered this question may say a lot about how "real" they are. I tend to believe those who gave a simple "I'm real" type of answer are probably pretty genuine, while those people who gave a playful, more questionable answer about themselves may not be as "real" in presenting themselves. That may just be this thread though.

Outside of the handfull of people I've actually met, I take most things here with a grain of salt - and sometimes it's a very BIG grain.

And as an aside - every one of those I HAVE met 'on the outside' have been perfectly delightful and wonderful - and a couple of them I actually consider good friends.

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me
And you love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go, just let me go, let me go

And no matter how hard I try
I can't escape these things inside
I know, I know
But all the pieces fall apart
You will be the only one who knows, who knows

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go, just let me go

(you don't know)
You love me but you don't
You love me but you don't
(you don't know)
You love me but you don't know who I am

(you don't know)
You love me but you don't
You love me but you don't
(you don't know)
You love me but you don't know me



Just thought I'd add to list of songs about "realness".

Honestly, I try to be as "real" as possible, but I think most of us come here to have fun and not necessarily be ourselves at all times. You have to judge the people on this board on a case-by-case basis. Some are probably very honest about who they are and others are full of sh!t. My advice is to not take anything here too seriously and to trust your instincts.

there's a pretty simple test. If you are chatting specifically with someone and form a bond, then find yourself in a location near theirs, and they are willing to meet in public, chances are they are pretty close to what they have led you to believe.

If, on the other hand, warning bells go off in your chat interaction, or if/when you get in proximity to meet public they have all kinds of excuses why not, then chances are they are posing.

As an earlier poster said, grains of salt are very useful. Research away from here on rumors and innuendo can tell you a lot, for example. Common sense is pretty prevalent. Use yours in combination with an open mind.

And after all, it's just a chat site.

Seriously though, what you see is what you get with me. If anything, I probably come off far more subdued online than in person. Let's just say Im incredibly difficult to lose in a crowd. lol
