Is it normal to be different online than real life?

  • You are that way because you are very insecure and lack self confidence.
    You probably lack real world social experiences and interactions and you also probably don't love the way you look so you feel like you're under the microscope and you feel pressure.

    The best way to get over that is probably to start interacting with people more and show emotion. You're not a robot so don't act like one. Smile more, let loose and have fun.
    Stop worrying and thinking someone's judging you unless you're doing socially / morally unacceptable things.

    Also, that's why a lot of people drink or do drugs - to give them courage to face their fears.

    Not sure if the below is your problem/reason but :

    When I was younger I was very shy but it was because both girls and guys would always look at me or want to talk to me, befriend me etc. It made me feel awkward and I used to wonder why does everyone bother me... Anyway as I got older I realized hey, the girls really like me and want sex/hookup and the guys really like me and want to be friends unless they're gay then they want to hook up.

    So anyway I quickly stopped being shy because of that realization. But before that I felt like I was under the microscope being judged by everyone like I was an outcast and didn't belong. I still do get annoyed when people stare at me though (unless it's a hot girl ) because it breaks my thought process.

    When people stare and look at you it means they like you (assuming you're not doing something unacceptable or abnormal). That means they accept you so no reason to be self conscious or feel weird.

    Do think a $400,000 Lamborghini feels weird when everyone gawks at it as it drives by?

    People look at things they like. It's a compliment.

    NOPE.
