Good Morning, Rose! ~~~~~~ waves~~~~~ This is a little bit deep for me at this time in the morning!

However, I think that very few people are brave enough to show themselves as they really are. Some show themselves sometimes but mostly the walls only come down after time and getting to know the other person and trusting them. And it depends on how private/shy each person is.

The written word is more difficult to show emotions and can be easily misunderstood (as I have found to my cost!). But I am learning to put in ; - ))) or : - p or Tee! Hee! Or other obvious emotions. ♥ ♫ **** to make my meaning clearer.

I like reading local history and especially about the glassworks and shipyards where nearly all my male ancestors worked

Foggy, we have probably all said things that have been 'read wrongly'...lol..I know I have!....very hard sometimes to pick up on the 'tone' of what is being said, makes a huge difference when you can hear the inflection and/or read the body language!

As to the physical..well I am a statuesque
goddess lol....NOT!

I dont really think one can really know someone by just sending messages to each other on here, as you only have to say the wrong thing, and immediately your not a nice person.
Its the same regarding the visual ideas we have about each other, we mostly get that wrong as well.
You cant beat actually talking face to face, at least then you get a better idea.
