Looks like you're going to get another rambling comment, and not too dissimilar to nytegoddess' either.
On the surface, I am a 'nice' person. Very vanilla. I'm sorta shy around people and hold a high distrust in people.
However, on the inside, there is just something that is screaming to come out. Which is where the wonders of the internet comes in - a place where I can be more what I want to be and have the freedom to indulge in interests that people in my real life would find mind-boggling.
However, that is still a slow progress. Even though I've got this chance of a 'different identity', I still lurked around lj for nearly a year (I lurked through most of you Broken Verse - absolute love by the way), when I finally couldn't stand it and registered at the beginning of this year. It then still took me months before I finally started to use it.
The past few weeks has seen me becoming more confident and am now more prolific in posting/commenting. Hopefully I'll get to the stage where I will be able to post whatever I secretly want.
Reading your profile, I can see a lot of interests I share, though I have to ashamedly say that I still can't let go of my reservations and freely show them on my profile.
I admire your openess and what I see as confidence in your own self. I wish and hope to get to that stage myself. Please feel free to look at my journal, though it is fairly lacking in content. I would love to friend you, but only if you're ok with it.
