I do it all the time... on Twitter and Reddit.

In real life I would never even look at eyes of a stranger.

Probably some people here can relate.



I can. But I don't think that should be the default state, nor is it healthy.

I'm really trying to do better in this regard, but it's proving difficult to improve at.


There’s a common mindset at play when you seek interaction through a site.

On the street, there’s no rule that you can’t speak to anyone. Most people, however, find comfort in black-and-white answers in knowing if is appropriate to engage. It is this uncertainty that drives individuals not to engage.
