 People have formed the impression that I am an aggressive person in real life. But what if I told you that I'm not aggressive, and while I do get irritated because I'm human, I'm not violent or prone to uncontrollable actions. It's the cyber world that brings out this kind of negativity, which doesn't exist in me in real life. Would you believe that?

 Ive to explain something slmilar about myself lately even in real life.
Living sometimes with the sorries by upfront.
But it is what it is. Just one apollogy, sometimes two. A third apollogy is really a GFY in disguise and often than not in disguise. 
 I’m not a person who asks for apologies because I believe people don’t deserve them or aren’t worthy of an apology. I might feel regret for someone who has been hurt or for someone I have feelings for, but I don’t think there are people in the world today who truly deserve an apology. 
 Honestly i think the same vastly but not fully yet. To me is still a common of the place. People here use intangibles alike to mediate communication. A perk of my career lets say.  
 for example, I have an advantage everywhere. 
But here I can easily become toxic and I don’t know why people are so scared of this special thing! 
 Yes you know why. Not everyone can get beauty withouth non digital senses. 
 It is true 🙂‍↔️ 
 Cyberworld forces reduction of symbols to literality without the interference of socializing with real people and their goddamn emotions. 
 On the other hand, it can be manipulative, as many people might claim to be something they are not, creating feelings based on imagined personas. This is even more frightening because people are inclined to create imaginary characters in their minds.
