When entering 'Swingworld' do you also enter into a different personality? Do you become the person you maybe really want to be, or do you remain the same as you do ostensibly in real life?
Regarding J and I we are what we say on the packet no more no less. Not a lot different, well not as yet anyway.
nope.... I'm still the chatty, flirty bundle of fun.... or annoying( not sure which yet! lol )
A good question. Am I the same personality reacting to different situations or different personalities in different situations.
I believe I am one person in different situations. The question is, which situation would I like to be in? Swinging, work is a duty. I must say that some private time with W is very enjoyable, but swinging to and fro, up and down, back and fourth....
Deep subject this one!!!! :shock:
I would say im the same person yet acting out my fantasies.
In a world full of taboos this (S/H) is a great place to meet like minded people and do just that. lol
Yet this site has also been about meeting new friends,which is just as important, (for me anyway)and i've met some good good people here.
Going off the subject a tad here,
what i would say is make sure your own personal safety comes first!!!!! always get to know the person/s before you meet.
Its a dangerous world out there.
Love + Light To All + Happy Swinging. wink
I’d say that although I’m the same person, different situations bring out different facets of personality. Many people have commented that swingers tend to be more open, and its refreshing to be able to talk openly to friends here about aspects of your own sexuality, or fantasies. I don't have to worry so much “what will they think of me”, so in that respect I change, but in general I try to treat people as I would like to be treated myself.
with us its what you see is what you get love it or loathe it biggrin
Dave and I fairly down to earth and easy going and like to be with people similar to ourselves :D
I think im slightly more confident and chatty in cyber world than i am in real life, but i will have to ask those who have met me via here wink
I am always myself..............I make sure that before I leave home to meet someone I have a good feel and a look and make sure I am myself biggrin :D :D

Why would you want to be a cent? I would have thought at least a nickel or a dime.

Lost - your thread title just reminds me so much of this bit of stand-up that I hope you'll forgive a quick(ish redface ) hi-jack:
"The great trick is to know who you are. Most people don't know, thank God I know. I didn't always know. I'm not ashamed to admit it, there was a time I didn't know who I was.
I went to a psychiatrist and he told me 'this is not you'. I said 'if this not me then who is it?'. He said 'I don't know either' so I said 'What do I need you for?'. He said 'to find out who you are, together we're gonna look for the real you!'. I said 'if I don't know who I am how will I know who to look for? And even if I find me, how will I know it's me?' Besides, if I wanna find me, why do I need him, I can look myself. Or I could take my friends, and we'd know where I was.
Besides, I said to myself, what if I find the real me and he's even worse than me, why do I need him? I don't make enough for myself, I need a partner? Ten years I've been good without looking for anybody, why should I look for him? He needs help, let him look for me!
He said 'the search for the real you will have to continue, that'll be $100, please'. I said to myself ' If this is not the real me, why should I give him the $100? I'll look for the real me, let him give the $100! What if I find the real me and he don't reckon it's WORTH the $100?'. I said to myself 'for all I know the real me might be going to a different psychiatrist! He might even BE a psychiatrist himself, wouldn't that be funny if you're the real me and YOU owe ME the $100?! Tell ya what, I'll charge ya $50, we'll call it even."

After a life changing event I learnt that the real me and me are rarely good communicators ...so in short I a dont really know if I am the real me .the conscious me thinks I am real ... the real me lets him believe it whilst reatining ownership of teh aforesaid genuine article .....does that make any sense? If not then thats the real me biggrin
Oh and I agree that in the chat room I tend to be moderately less shy than I am in "The Real WOrld" :D
Well, I would like to say what you see is what you get! But I dont think its quite as simple as that, online or in real life.....we all have a private part that we dont want others to know about.
People here only know what I choose to let them see or know etc. Very few have seen or know the real me.....even then, I have parts that are hidden! An those that have know me years an years in person, who think they know me......dont! Cos Im complex!
So is this the real me? Your just seeing a snippet of what Im about...
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have you heard of Johari's Window - I did this at Uni and it was quite enlightening!
Here's mine, peeps can go put words in what they associate me with...

You can create your own for friends to add to it!
But some days I just can't remember if I'm the good twin or the evil one lol

Good post this one as I believe that a good majority of people have "alter ego's" and different faces of their true persona depending on where they are and whom they are with!
In the "real world" Im sure nobody would suspect myself and miss srne to be into the scene as to all who know us outside we seem the quaint, polite couple who dont go out much and enjoy each others company.
Those who have seen us at the various munches we have attended will know different! :twisted:
I myself have a few "alter ego's" depending on what Im doing etc. At training people see me as a very cold, pretty mean dude who likes to kick ass, but then when I get in the car to come home and pull onto the driveway I generally have a good old chat with my elderly neighbours who have no idea Im anything but the nice young man next door who mows their lawn. Similarly the guys I train with have no idea about the type of guy I am at home getting nagged and bossed by the good lady to do the washing up or run her a bath!!
I think in answer to the original post, yes we do have a different persona when we come on the site but I think to some extent everybody does who uses it, unless they tell all and sundry that they are swingers in which case they would have no need to hide a part of their identity most of us keep from the general poulus?
Some people on the scene prefer to keep things as inpersonal and anoymous as possible, that's fine if that is for them, good luck to them.
Personally, we just like to be ourselves. We will talk to anyone, generally speaking, at a club as long as their polite. We just try and be ourselves and have a good time. We like the social side of the scene and making friends with people is something we like to do, not everyones bowl of goldfish, we know, but that's us.
So generally we don't really change anything (apart from what we wear, lol )

For some reason i am lot less confidant and talkative in cyber world than i am in real life. Call me a luddite but i still havent got to grips with forums and blogs and such things. I am however trying to change my stubborn ways and embrace the modern electronic age. For me its a bit paradoxical as i work as an engineer.

:welcome: to the Forums.... look like you're doing just fine thus far!
