If you take time to read what others respond and comment on the discussions here on myLot, you might get an insight into their life offline too 
Fun people on here will be fun people offline too? 
Grumpy people on here will be grumpy people offline too? 
Can people fake on here?
I doubt it and I guess that the fun people create a problem for the grumpy people here just like they do offline too
Never mind...
There is a lot of stuff offline to make anyone grumpy but not everyone lets it get under their skin.
In the same way, there are a lot of people who come here for distraction from everyday stress, just like they go for a walk in the park or a ride at the playground...
I know why I come here... 
and I don't have a problem...

@mysdianait That proves my point because I have not had a holiday all year.

Who has a problem? Everyone? And no one. :)
Everyone has a problem of some sort right now this minute, big or small online or offline. And on the grand scheme of things, no one has a problem

I absolutely agree! 
Some have problems that they will never admit to having though and that becomes obvious when they see/read what others are doing/saying here.

@Drosophila Problems are never really problems indeed... unless we want them to be so.

Oh I must be missing out on something as I am unaware of those people in your life. I guess I should read you more and catch up

I guess I come across as a funghi on here, but offline I am less so.
The interaction with some myLot members at times can often act as a pick-me-up for the days I am feeling a bit down in the dumps. Which isn't often and I bet you never knew that. Or did you?

Did I know what? That you sometimes feel down in the dumps or that it doesn't happen often?
I think that mylot is a huge pick-me-up and cheaper than a lot of medicines. Indeed they pay us to be here

Can people fake themselves on line - absolutely. Online everyone is antonymous, we can be whoever and whatever we want.
I come here to stay out of trouble in real life!

Same goes for offline. You know no-one who has a huge home, a big car, holidays every year and whatever else, thinking that people will think they are rich but all they have is a huge overdraft at the bank?

@mysdianait I would be driving my husband crazy - but that's a short trip. And I would be eating all day long.

I don't see you as a grumpy person at all so you are hiding it very well if that is really the case

@katsmeow1213 I was sometimes grumpy when I was younger. Then I read somewhere that frowns make wrinkles that grow downwards and a smile makes wrinkles that go upwards. I thought about that a lot at the time and forgot about being grumpy

@mysdianait I think people who know me in real life find me to be grumpy.. I don't fake it well in real life... something I have to work on!

Surely if you read them for long enough you realise that they are like they are here offline too?

There are indeed many posts which can make us sad here. Especially those that speak of family passing 
I have not had a post make me grumpy thoufg, probably because I have no time now to be grumpy. Life is too short

@Bluedoll It upsets you that I am not affected by grumpy posts? I come here to have fun and avoid the posts that might cause me to become negative.

@mysdianait you can now go on and live happily with your rosy coloured glasses. I only wanted to put my two cents in on this topic.

Yes indeed, there is everything here just like offline. Some are real and pou out stories about their whole life while others are less inclined to share but the underlying attraction I find is indeed the fun!

@Madshadi Very often indeed, even though many seem to think that is not the case at all. As I said in another comment, our words are like footprints in the sand and unique to whoever is leaving them

@mysdianait Sometimes you can guess someone's personality just by reading his/her posts, even if no personal details have been shared.

My thoughts exactly!
People leave themselves in the words that they write, in the same way that they leave their footprints in the sand when they walk on the beach

@JudyEv I think that no matter how hard they try to hide it, if we read them enough it will show through regardless

@Bluedoll Withholding information is different from hiding, or trying to hide, the real character - which will show through in time anyway.

I can relate. There are things I will share here I will never share on Facebook because I am tired of their judging me and calling me names etc everytime I turn around. Plus if I am having an issue Health wise why share it on Facebook 24/7 and have people wanting to not follow me anymore? Even here I am not going to be one to share my dirty underwear daily and never have anything good to want to talk about.

I think it's possible to show a completely different personality online than offline. I don't think it's something most people do, though. I suppose it depends why they're here. Some people might create a grumpy persona (or other kind of persona) as an outlet for the things they wouldn't say out loud in real life.
I don't think I'm grumpy (although I like to rant occasionally) but I'm not sure I'm fun either! You'll have to let me know how my personality comes across :)

That makes two of us.At least we roughly know what some person is like by reading their posts, responses and comments.

I do both. I share sometimes the real things in my life sometimes I just prefer to not show it or hide things in my life. I see most people are here are honest and don't fake things.

yes I agree that most people are honest here. Then there are those who think that they are being honest but in their words, and with their attitude, their real character shows that they don't really think like they are trying to make us believe that they do. That shows over time if we read them long enough.

Could well be.
I got rid of my car just over two years ago and walk everywhere now. I get a taxi if I have to go too far to walk and no-one is going in that direction
