I think my honesty is what keeps most people from being around me, lol. But then again, I really don't want the people around me who do not want honesty anyway. But A, offline? Not a line of people dying to be friends. So while I appreciate your assessment, I don't think it translates well off LJ. xo
*nodding* I remember you saying this before, and I certainly understand that. I'm quieter offline, and apparently intimidating for some reason. I don't think my heart or caring really comes out well, especially on initial meetings. I have been accused of being "professional"...almost all the time.
Oh well see there it is. Here, you are SO not the background guy. So it probably has a lot to do with being in the background..being unobtrusive. I'm sure I'm not telling you anything you don't already know though.
I started out as the background guy here, too... The uniqueness of interactions here allow me to have many one on one conversations without ever feeling like I'm in a crowd :D
I completely understand this. I think that is one of the reasons I value the interactions here so much. I know I wouldn't write as much if I didn't interact with readers.
You know what is funny..even though I can completely see you as a background guy offline, I can't imagine it here on LJ!
yes, he was..i was one of the lucky ones who met him way back then... and then i had M and wasn't online much for a year or so.. came back and he was a superstar.. still weirds me out every now and then
and christine..you have SO many things that are attractive... good heart, intelligence, passion, you are a good listener, a good friend.. you are caring and honest..
