It's because of me being a therapist that I know better, people act diffeernt in different circumstances, I do not act the same with my mom as I do with my boss, my husband, facebook or EF, we all act differently according to who we talk to and where we are, we're bio-psico-social creatures
I rarely tell someone on FB to STFU or something like that but I do it here all the time because it's a different place with different people, as Cindy said, the internet is now a part of internet lives therefore it is it's own space and therefore it's own set of interactions, but there is no set of rules of conduct alike wherever you go, sometimes in order to be nice to people in the real world I have to vent here, it's a process... just because ur a jer online you dont hae to be in real life, maybe you are acting like that purposely online, then again maybe you're not... humans are unpredictable, no one fits a mold.
