Kinetic Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 [color=darkblue] The title doesn't make much sense, does it? Anyway, what I'm saying is, alot of people act different when they're alone. I, myself act like a dork, just to joke around. Does anyone else act different when they're alone? It just came to mind, because I was trying to make my brother freak out, but hopping around the house (Told you I was insane), and I just thought it was funny.

wrist cutter Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 I think I'm pretty much the same when I'm alone. Being alone allows me to do certain things I would otherwise not be able to do in a crowd, but otherwise I don't really act much different. I think my online personality is what really contrasts with the one I use outside of the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amibasuki Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 [FONT=arial]most of the time when I'm by myself, I'm not as 'reserved' as I would be around others, lol. and if it's just me and my family, then I wouldn't feel too bad about telling somebody to shut up if they were annoying me. basically the only difference is I tone my hyperness and attitude down a slight bit when I'm in public.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiroMunkie Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 [color=indigo]The only difference between how I am when I'm alone, and how I am in fonrt of people is that (when I'm with people) I'm not on the computer.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyper Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 I am silent. I'm on the computer here at the boards in my spare time. But sometimes i talk to myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinetic Posted August 6, 2002 Author Share Posted August 6, 2002 [color=darkblue] I often talk to myself as well, but usually in my head. Sometimes I'll actually respond to myself out loud, usually in my room, though. [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 When I'm alone I try to think of ways to make the world a better place. Sometimes I stare up into the heavens and devise wonderful poems and sing to woodland creatures. Pffft, who the hell am I kidding? I act just the same except I can pass off bodily functions with less embarrassment. Unfortunately, I'm barely ever alone..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdsy Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 [COLOR=deeppink]I act the same way I do when I'm around people... I don't really have any sort of inhibitions around people. But most of what I do is just starring into space for an extended period of time. With or without people around. I talk to myself too... if people are around or not.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Harlequin Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 [font=gothic][color=crimson]Hmmm. I, in contrast to the other answers here, have created an entire personality, a facade, that I use around other people, including family and friends. It's like the real me only in the ways I want it to be. In reality, there are only two people in the world who really know me. Neither of them are family. Everybody talks to themselves. At least those of us who admit to it aren't in denial! 24th time...[/font][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeebs Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 I make noises and talk to myself :babble: , or I just think. And I'm alone a lot because everyone in my household (except me and my nephew) have jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensei-San Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 I talk to my pet hamster called Hazuki-Sensei, about how I can rid my life and become one happy being of the after life......

Genkai Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 well, i just bought a journal for my dreams so i can start lucid dreaming after learning about my dream patterns, *trails off*.. OH! YEAH! uh, i decided ta make it into a real journal, so im officially the only guy in the US that has a journal! yay! so, i guess most people weould find writing in it sorta personal, or something, so i normallywrite in it in the wonderful solitary of my room, which served not much purpose to me except sleeping till i got the journal. so, when im alone, sort of, i do write in it. but it's not like everyone else in my house is out at one time very often.....

Sara Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 My personality is always the same, but different facets become more prominent, depending on who I'm with. I change to fit in with the group I'm with. Don't think conform, change, though. Think unique puzzle-pieces. The smaller the group, the bigger my personality. The more people there are, the quieter I become. I observe more than I participate, but I do love observing. I don't know if there's ever an instance where I could just 'be myself.' Who I am is always changing. Who I am right now is not who I'll be tomorrow. I could speak with you now and then, be completely natural and at ease both times, and come off as completely different people. When I'm truly alone--walking down at the beach around dusk, sitting up late on my back deck, wandering the school hallways during study hall [:whoops:], or riding my bike too fast to technically be safe....I don't really [i]do[/i] anything. I'll write a dialogue or a lyric in my mind, or try to describe a certain color, or define something in a completely non-textbook way. If I'm upset, I'll usually go for a bikeride. It takes just enough of my attention to keep my mind off of other stuff, and is automatic enough that I can just completely blank out for a while. I can be shy, quiet, loud, crazy, sweet, cynical, goofy, disdainful...depending on my mood, who I'm with, and what's going on. I think everyone's that way...at least, I can't imagine [i]not[/i] being that way. Having a static personality would just be so...boring. [i]You see things. You keep quiet about them.

Kinetic Posted August 6, 2002 Author Share Posted August 6, 2002 [color=darkblue] I agree with you completely. However, it doesn't matter if it's a small group of people, or a large one, I sit there and listen, or just look at things, observing, I guess. When I'm with one person, though, I'll usually talk, just to not bore them. It also depends on my mood. I can be a straight-up jerk, or sincere, or humorous.

Genkai Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 "I change to fit in with the group I'm with" so says mist. i know that if you read the rest of the post you'll understand that she's not saying " i hide being myself to fit in", but i know some people do. but, addressing that, how does that affect waht you do when you're alone? oh, and i dont know who i am also, so... don't feel alone! im always changing! one day ill be a goth, next a preppy person. well, never those, but ya know what i mean.

But maybe it's just the a few people. I think my creative juices flow when I'm alone. I can act, I can write poetry or stories, I can draw, I can dance and sing, but most of all I can think. I think about my best friend who just recently moved 13,000 miles away from me. I think about how rude and mean I can be. It's depressing... But in front of everyone else I laugh and joke. I just want to make everyone smile. I act like that's my job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicoTranzrig Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 [COLOR=darkblue]I tend to sing random songs when I'm alone since I fee weird about presenting my real vocal range to other people...not that I'm tone deaf or anything like that but the last time I sung, the crowd went dead silent and looked straight at me, mouths open. Other than that, I'm pretty much the same with everyone I know, with a little shyness around new people.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
