The you that you know when you are on your own, especially for longer periods of time, and the you that people know - how different are those?

    The private me is like the public me. I just think more about the darker side of my mind more, that's all.

    I try to be the same at all times. I guess the private me is more serious though.

    I'm more goal-oriented while alone.

    That seems to be true.

    I mean, many things stay the same, but I can say that very few people really know me.

    Then again, after living a while without others, you realize that perhaps it is interactions without that even make the "you", and without them the concept doesn't even make much sense.

    The private me and the public me are two different people. The public me can be anything it needs to be in order to the job done. The private me is carved in stone and does not change.

    The public me is a lot different to the private me. No one really knows that I sit at home posting on fringe forums and reading about network security. It's a whole different person to be honest - one which my friends probably wouldn't like very much.

    public me faps more. but really, i consider myself the same, i can agree with the goals part, when i'm alone i have more time to focus on me and what i want. when with friends that just goes in order 2 have a good time.
