Our online personas tend to be different from who we appear to be in real life.

Not sure, if I can say that about myself. Others, who know me in both realms might give a feedback on this. But as my real life friends never read my stuff, there is no way to tell. LOL

My real life encounters shrunk to the most minimum possible. I will not talk about the reasons but it's a matter of fact which I think, I'll have to change for the sake of my soul.

I think, those 15 minutes might be worth meeting you in person ;-)
Give me notice, when you will make a visit to Germany. HaHa!
