sometimes i have wondered if i am lying on RYL.

When i get emotional, my rantings/writings become very.. dramatic and im sure portray that i feel worse than i actually do. I often read back and im like 'i definitely wasnt that emotional in real life about this situation'.

Unconscious exaggeration or something.

damn drama queen.

Charlie, I suspect you lie about having had a baby, even though I was staring at pictures of him last night!

damn.. ive been found out!!!

ha, i would never lie about *things* .. too many people here know me in real life for me to be able to keep up the charade, but sometimes i do think 'this is infuriating, i shall write about it and level it out in my head' and it turns into some uber emotional bullshit that im sure i dont actually feel.

i make no sense.

and am derailing the thread.

There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.

I find I get carried away in ranting! I'm a little pissed off about something and then I start ranting and all of a sudden I'm ridiculously angry and can rant forever IN CAPITALS TOO about what was really just a tiny thing :p



No other sadness in the world would do

That's totally different to saying 'i hear a voice called xxx telling me to xxx'
Or 'i dissociated for 100 million years'

And you can tell personality from things like posting type/frequency , language, spelling.
For example, Charlie, you have never seemed like one to outright lie.

true, true. I'm surprised I haven't been caught yet; all these imaginary people posted from one IP address!

Same. I generally can't tell if people are lying or not.
Most people I know I can trust, it's people I don't know so well that are suspect

Stuff like this makes me feel paranoid. Sometimes it becomes a bit of a witch hunt, 'this person is lying' 'this person is a troll'. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt unless it's painfully clear they are lying (and even then I doubt myself).

I sit here thinking am I a liar? am I a troll? is that what other people think of me?
although, having my partner stalk my posts makes it quite hard for me to make things up, I'm still worried.

I'm just wondering what makes people think a member is lying? What makes people think they *know* when someone is lying? Surely it's impossible to know for definite if you've never met that person in real life?

Sorry I'm rambling. It just freaks me out.

I actually think people suspect me of lying. I wouldn't say I specifically lie, though I do admittedly have a tendency to exaggerate the truth :-\

Because i think its misused and it comes across as mean particularly when someone isnt being a troll. People are nuch to quick to call troll and it upsets people probably more than the person saying it realises.

I know I can't prove it but it's a gut feeling, plus I do some stalking and it kind of adds up.
An example - One member creates a thread, gets a ton of replies, support and well, attention, another member creates very similar and specific thread.

But, I could be completely wrong.
