So I believe that every person has a right to their opinion, view, belief, etc...and I also believe that we as people should not try and change anyone, but in thinking about this more and more I am wondering if any one person is truly capable of following through with this belief or is this just a mythical thought, or a unicorn of a thought? So I have analyzed what it is I do when confronted with some one that does something that I don't believe, or like. Take drug abuse. I truly can't stand the stuff..drugs that is. Nor can I understand the people that choose to take part in this behavior. I get the whole psychological piece of it all, but I think to myself why can't people just be more stubborn or hard headed and just be strong and move on from it, and in that instance I realize that in that thought alone I am wishing they would change. I might not come out and say that I wish they would change, but I did have the thought. So my next question is would just having the thought of wanting some one to change be just as bad as telling that person. Isn't even thinking it trying to bend the will of another to our own ideas? Some people are very vocal about their beliefs and some are not. I tend to express myself more in a written format then vocally. Perhaps this is because in the verbal format the feed back isn't as quick to come and it gives me the time to digest it and perhaps hear what the person was trying to say. Or perhaps like it has been pointed out to me I just like to hide behind what I am thinking, feeling. Who knows....more on this later I am sure.

Been awhile I know
So I posted this on my FB page yesterday as a debate for everyone to weigh in on.
Another person said they try to rely simply on them self only. Well I do think most people probably do this as general on a whole. However, there are times when a person doesn't have this choice. For example when a person is sick or injured they might not have a choice and the person that doesn't have family to step in what are they suppose to do? Who are they suppose to rely on?
Another person suggested that perhaps it's because the person that is now online used to be close to the person earlier in life. While the concept of this can be true there are some online friends that I have made that I have never met in person and never were part of my life earlier. However, there are some online friends that yes I did know earlier in life such as old classmates.
And last some one said it was because it might be, "easier to sound like a friend online than to be a friend in person" Perhaps this is true but some of the people that are not near by, but to me that just seems like the online person might be superficial. Having met one of these people not sure I can believe in this theory either.
So perhaps it's more a case of that all of these things blended together are true. People are complicated and some might be reliable or unreliable, because they use to be close but they figure the person is probably only relying on themselves like they do and all because they feel it's easier to sound like a friend then to be one in person? Who knows? I don't even pretend to know but I do like to have people weigh in on the subject matter. Have thoughts on this feel free to weigh in as well.

Some seem to think that some people are reliable and some people just are not. Well that could be true for people that are online or not. So there is some truth to this statement, but I am not sure that being online or not has anything to do with this statement.

MMPD
MMPD is a phrase that I like to refer to as MySpace Multiple Personality Disorder. If you spend enough time on the social networking sites like I have you start to notice over time that there seem to be a lot of people that have more then one site and profile for the Social Networking sites. Although this phenomena is mostly seen in the younger generations, you can see it as well with some of the older generations to.
The younger generation seems to use the MMPD for a whole variety of different reasons. Some of them do this to create whole fantasy world's for themselves where they make people believe that they live in places they do not, and live desparate lives so that others will feel the need to sympathize with them and it seems to feed into their fantasy world's.
I have followed this one person that has had a total of three different sites with three different names, two different locations that she says she lives in and even she has even gone as far to have different pictures of people that she is not and on one site she is a white lebanese/rican mix and on the other site she is black. As far as I can tell she does this to fullfil her need to be loved, and to be able to lurker on other's sites that she has an interest in.
I did read a study that stated that some people do this so that different part of their personality can shine through when they create these different sites. I found this to be interesting especially because it does in it's own way create a split personality of the person that has the multiple sites. As I look at this more in detail I will continue to study this and continue to feed the finds on.
