"Do you think the people on GR really get a full picture of who you are, Rosie?"

Not the physical, but do you feel that reading all the threads and replies someone gives, that you get a good impression of the 'real' person.....?

Do you think people get a true impression of you?!

(lol...she is very interested as she has known me 25 years, so knows more about me than anyone probably)

hi rose i dont think people get the right impression of someone through e mail in general as they cant see the person in the flesh

lol SE, Arch...

my friend has occasionally looked in on the boards as she knows I come on here a lot, and I sometimes refer to people on here....and she has built up a mental image of some of my GR friends!

she wanted to know if I thought I came across as I really am, intellectually and emotionally....LOL I wasn't sure i could give an accurate answer re how people see me!
Gave me pause for thought though!
