Aww,thanks for the compliment!
Yes he was very self centered. And i'm having a new issue with another guy from a dating site that i just started talking to...he SEEMED to be into all this personal development/the truth about life/new ways of thinking,etc. but after chatting to him only twice,he is telling me that he doesnt believe i'm telling the truth about myself,he thinks i'm in denial about wanting a boyfriend because "everyone needs somebody",he thinks i'm out of touch with reality because i choose to focus on the positive and i laugh a lot,and he said rude comments about my friends and guys i've dated. It frustrated me because he is wrong about me (i think),and he was nothing like what he said he was. Sorry i went on there LOL

I find there's no lack of people who share my interests and ideals, but the real problem is meeting them. The internet allows us to talk to people we never otherwise would have been able to talk to, and know them better than we would have ever known them if it weren't for the intellectually intimate contact we share with them through chat, emails, and other kinds of electronic communication. People we meet in person always build a shell around their true selves to protect themselves from the hostilities of the world around them. We never really see them for who they really are, and it's difficult or impossible to get through that.

This is all so true!! I hate that i cant have these discussions in real life with people. Well,not that this is so bad,but i'd rather be out doing things with people than sitting here inactive for hours a day
And i totally agree with you about how people build a shell around themselves but online its easier to speak your mind. I tried to explain this to the guy i was chatting to,but he kept saying "the internet isnt real!"
