Moo. Posts: 5,434 Group: Member Member #130 Joined: October 15, 2008	gs Jul 8 2011, 11:57 PM people value "being yourself" waaaay too highly. no one is ever him or herself. people make compromises all the time and i mean 100% of the time when around others, they don't say whatever they're thinking for a reason. if you think acting a certain way will make someone like you more by all means do so, but do consider if it's really worth all that effort first. if you have to change too much to click with someone it's no good long term. This is true. I am more similar to "myself" on the internet than I am in real-life because I know that if my friends knew I like some of my interests as much as I do, they'd laugh me off and not take me seriously as a person anymore. I'm still the same guy in the company of those I know who judge one another, but I just cover up aspects about myself I'd rather they not know and that's that. Personality is still the same though, and I never have any issues interacting with anybody, man or woman. Confidence in communication is always key.

Sorry mate, had to work all day today, same with tmrw And jen is right, I think too much about what I should say instead of actually saying something, and I just sit there not saying anything. If I would just talk and be myself everything would possibly be ok Are you sure? What if you're wrong? Sometimes we delude ourselves by saying that we're valuable when in reality we're not. It could just be a bias of yours that needs to believe that you're worth more. Maybe you should just think about it a little bit more. lol don't be a brat SALy....jacky, be yourself...if she doesn't like you for who you are then she's not right for you... eos! You're suppressing yourself, don't DO IT! Edited by Goodsbee, Jul 10 2011, 01:35 PM.

What I mean is, if you can be someone else, why not?

Look Jack, you might think when I stay stuff like get a haircut Im joking. When you think about it though it makes sense. If you think (yeah even if you only think it) you look good, you feel good and that def comes across.

You can be a great person, with interesting opinions and things to say, but still get nervous and quiet around people. I don't think you can really see someone's true personality until you get to know them and they become comfortable being themselves around you.
