It seems as if internet would be a great place to create and portray a false identity. In this, I mean that it is not like there is one on one conversation in person going on, so you could pretty much hide or make-up whatever it is you want. Unless you post a picture of yourself on the page, you could be a drop dead model even though you might be extremely unattractive in person. I wonder if people do this and if they eventually lead themselve into believing that theyin are a drop dead instead of a dog? Is this a way to walk in someone else's shoes to see what responses are provoked?
