We are all often at the mercy of the perceptions of others. Unfortunately, there's no real way around it.

I know it's difficult, but try not to take those criticisms of your on-line demeanor too seriously. I've been reading your blogs for quite a while now, and given a little bit of time, it's easy to see that you project both a protective shell and a warm, softer side beneath it. Ugh, I think I just described you as a turtle...not really what I meant...sorry about that. Those who see you as impersonal, cold, or detached just haven't done their homework enough to have glimpsed the pieces of yourself that you rightfully protect most of the time. And anyone not willing or able to look at you deeply doesn't hold opinions worth considering.

What lastguy said......except if he'd had done that with some flourish..like describing you as a beautiful gorgeous unique turtle...that might have opened a door...nothing like a sweet flirt!!!

Seriously though....The older I get the less and I do mean less I care how others view me, specially somebody on a website that hasn't taken the time to ask questions or express an interest. I want to be liked, but not enough to conform to whatever it is they want/need from me, not anymore. I admit to trying for a long time. I am who and what I am...if that is not acceptable to you/him/they/whoever.....then thank you for your time and as they say in OZ...bugger off.

In my eyes you are elegantly reserved and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. In fact, it can become handy on alt.

People often say that I am cold and detached as well. I don't intend to be, rather for me, I think I am shy. Therefore I am quiet until I feel comfortable. Many take this as an insult. Great analogy with the shop window and the backroom.
