How d'you know someone is actually being honest?

Well, I am 'someone' who easily believes something without a good amount of supporting facts.. but, in this digital world, this should be something we should really be careful about, right?

Share me your thoughts ;)

I'm not discounting the possibility of meeting some people online who may be genuine. But, it's our peace and happiness that is at stake so we have to be discreet, tact and aware

@Shay12 Anyone online can choose what and how much they care to share. Can choose to be honest or dishonest. Can literally BE anyone. For whatever reason can choose to "create" an online identity that may vastly differ from their "real life" identity. For their own reason, and/or personal agenda.

Suggestion, just take things light, be casual. Less investment, less loss

@kaia_ :yin_yang: Balance is key. Discretion a must. Awareness essential. Happiness may follow. :pray:

@Lazz @kaia_ thank you both for your insightful answers. Indeed it is just up to us how much should we allow this digital platform to influence us. :blush:

[kaia_]

@Lazz Yes, I heard that right. Having the right amounts at the right times

[kaia_]

@Lazz ;) That's why... I Don't Need Your Name

[Shay12]

@Lazz True! +1 on Less investment, less loss

[Shay12]

@Victor-Euzébio yep, thank you :)

[Lazz]

@kaia_ Ohhhh I set myself up for that. Well played my friend, well played :grinning_face::+1:

[Lazz]

@Shay12 It is also up to us how and how much we influence IT.

@Shay12 There's a common saying here: "It's only fun until it's not" Not the wisest of quotes, but it applies nicely

@kaia_ When there is nothing left, everything must be right

@chewie Thank you! Take this place as a stage. Comedies, tragedies, romances :grinning: It's very easy for us to create multiple accounts here. Each of us may play any role, even multiple personality characters.
I trust my gut. That's the best advice I can offer to myself. If I am unsure that I would ever want to see that person standing in front of me, I will hold them at a bit of a distance.

@kaia_ some develop a profile like a character on a RP game. i guess even i "play" as chewie. I do hope the inner qualities of the real me shine through. If you put in time and energy, you can dig out the "jewels" at TWS. There are good people here after you sift through the vile and surly.

[chewie]

just to be politically correct. it is not ALL just some

or most

[kaia_]

@chewie Yea, I know. Your deeds define you.

[chewie]

@kaia_ had to post a rebuttal. not everyone here is vile. i just needed to say that. some people here rock.

[kaia_]

@chewie :musical_score: To be a rock and not to roll
You're the nice one. Chewie, we're home
