    Because they cant handel the truth. . . Or Becuase they dont want to offend someone. . . Or becuase it makes them feel better about themselves. There's a few reasons that comes to my mind.

    Because they can be anyone they want to be when they're on-line. They can be attractive, wealthy, successful, etc. Too bad a lot of them end up hurting people along the way.

    Insecurity with themselves. Anytime people present than themselves as something other than themselves it is due to an insecurity or unhappiness with who they are.

    Tru Dat....they don't even know how to work these new things called computers. And don't get me started on them not being able to type and spell.

    All sorts of reasons.

    1) steal money
    2) be someone else because they think they suck
    3) escape an abusive home life
    4) self esteem
    5) hide celebrity status
    6) get you in bed

    Which one of these has you upset? Did somebody lie to you?
