How private are you?

And I’m specifically talking about public forums,
Which definitely includes fab?
I’m getting people know a little bit about my character, and maybe if someone was clever enough to help some things get to about 50% of what I want to show off.
So where are you or do we have to speak to you personally to get to know you?

I am quite open on here I think. I probably talk to much sometimes.
I don't really believe you can get to know someone, myself included, on a forum or even by text really.
So yes I guess you would need to talk to me personally. |

For every one message I share on this forum, there are probably five that I write and then delete without posting. I am very guarded with my opinions here, and the playful, flirty, irreverent side of me is under tight control as well. I’m not associated with any other public forum or social media either, so I guess I’m rather private - even though I will share a few personal things. To know me properly requires private conversation and some investment of time - I don’t trust easily.
Curious about the 50% you don’t share… I wonder what that part of you is like? x |

No one really knows much of me, people think they do but they don't.
I think many build a picture of the person they expect you to be which in my case will result in disappointment.
I'm shy, I'm quiet, I'm awkward & that's me. |

Really rather private. It normally takes me a long time to open up to people and I'm also very wary about things being used against me. I do post rather introspective threads at times but they're not always about me. I also don't really say how I feel about certain things.
I think people see one side of me for me for the most part and I'm very happy and comfortable with that. |

"How private are you?
"
I possibly give too much information in some threads, such that if someone from who knew me through work or family was on here, they would recognise me.
On a one to one I am happy to share anything and have a number of personal friends from Fab. |

years back I used to be more open and talkative be it on Fab, everyday life or work etc etc a happy go lucky kind off person even at one point..
it was only at a former job years back working with a colleague I realised the errors/faults off my own ways when he taught me to keep somethings to myself i.e. you're own business and same with others etc not to pry or dig too much...
keeping things to the point and not go on as not everyone has good intentions or want's to know..
that and everyday life experiences/events or interactions played a large part too in some aspects in opening my eyes to the reality of life..
if some one opens up to me then I hear them out/give advice if required and keep it confidential...
these days I prefer to keep a distance/detached be it on here or everyday life, looking back I feel shame at times but better to have learned and not repeat the same mistakes of the past, if that means living life like a shadow so be it...  |

Only on this forum, no others forums or social media, can’t say we are very open on here as it’s just light hearted chit chat, we would be more open through private chat if we click with people |

I a a chatterbox so it’s easy to get to know me… but I only let people know the real me when i truly trust them.
As far as fab goes, I don’t give too much away and won’t add friends until I meet someone, and i don’t meet that many people very often unless it’s in a club. |

I am both an open book and at the same time exceptionally private. Some things are reserved for me only (or me and any other people involved) but if it’s not one of those things I’ll talk about most things. Helpful answer huh  |

I think I'm fairly private, don't give too much away or at least that's what I hope..but the truth is people on forums probably reveal far more than is intended, including me. Certain posters I probably know about their work, family, relationships etc...it's just stuff most people talk about whether intentional or not |

I’m fairly open and quite a few people that I know personally on here know quite a bit about me and my life.
I don’t have any time for people with double lives , secrets and lies and there are many around |

I always say I am an open book to anyone, if here or "real life" you ask me a question and I'll tell the truth. There are some elements I obviously don't divulge here and to the outside world I am not completely insane lol. |

You see I can relate to that.
I stopped public oversharing, because people simply don’t care. But I am honest and an open book like yourself. I just don’t care to give answers to people to questions they haven’t asked , and it’s rare that people try to get to know you, if that makes sense. Questions are very simple, so my answers are very simple too.  |

I’m neither particular about privacy nor broadcasting my life. Tbh on here it’s rare anyone is actually that interested anyway. But it’s actually why I distance myself from all the trans scene and stuff…the duplicity of multiple lives and identities. I can’t be arsed with people who keep others in life categories. |
