Online I am a delightful ball of sunshine!!!

In person, I would stare at you wide-eyed without blinking while faintly humming the score to "The Sound of Music"

I still don't know either Julianna. Maybe it's my choice of show tunes I hum. Perhaps I will try "Momma Mia" next time. Yeah, that'll work!!!

Trying to be something you're not is exhausting.. why wear a mask? if a conversation gives opportunity to speak , I engage.. If it doesn't , I listen.. If I find it funny, I laugh.. If I want to be quiet , I'm quiet. I appreciate genuine personalities.. There are different seasons in life.. And thankfully God brings companionship in them.

I'm really shy at first but once you get to know the real me I'm the complete opposite. i'm really talkative and my friends find it odd when I don't talk at all of the sudden. They would conclude that I'm angry or something but the truth is i'm not. LOL.

Being involved in a ministry like CMA (Christian Motorcycle Association) you get to be active in your social life. - going where bikers are, making friends with them, building a foundation on which you can lead him to Christ.
there is always a bike social happening. And if not a CMA gathering. its actually so awesome, my ministry is my social life.

But at home i like being the quiet one.

Hmmm......I'm much more social now that I've had a job/life change and the opportunity to be social. Before, it was more just because I had a little baby and I worked for a special needs little boy and was always on call in case of an emergency that I never had much social interaction. Believe it or not, it's tough being friends with a mommy when you're not even married, especially if you aren't used to the whole kid thing. haha But these days I just force people into friendships with me because I like them and I enjoy spending time with people, building relationships and talking about God. I don't really crave "me" time because it's been so long since that's even been an option. I enjoy having other people around. ^_^


All that to say.......I'm social. >_>
:D

I am definitely social! I have no problem going up to anyone and talking to them. It is hard to believe I am social being as I rarely have any time to go anywhere to socialize. I am the woman in a room who will go up to the person I see that no one is talking to since they are too shy to approach anyone else.

Your not the only one. If I just want to think, "it's automatically, is there something wrong with you?" And the funny thing is, when I'm around strange people (And I don't mean strange as in crazy either. Just strange as in, I don't know you.), I rarely talk. Only when I'm comfortable do I talk.

--------
As for the poll, I put neutral, but really I'm probably a mix of neutral and the one below. I'm pretty much a home body, and prefer to be left alone quite a bit. But at the same time, I do need social interaction, just so I don't go further into the deep end. :D

God's changed me sooooooooooo much, I used to be so quiet and shy, but I've found myself opening up.

As a non Christian I went to a therapist and said I don't know who I am, I know it's not who I am now for sure, I feel trapped.
And I'm seeing more and more of who God made me to be, I do still enjoy some time alone..........and I don't always have loads to say, but well, what I'm trying to say is......... hallelujah :)

I like to be isolated and if I can't, I'm quiet and watching/listening to my surroundings.
I chat quite a bit on here, however .-.
